We are still busy swimming, started ice skating lessons and trying to stay cool. It was 104 today! We have not done to much on the house since I last posted. I did get the replacement hose for the power washer and the worked on the front of the house. It was covered in the remains of ivy, and the washer just peeled them right off. Before I could use the power washer, which is now my new favorite tool, We had to fix our outdoor facuet. It has been leaking very badly, so we just shut the water valve off. It was a fairly easy fix in theory. The youtube video only took thrre minutes, so why does it always take two to three hours?
So I started taking the facuet apart but then a screw inside got stripped. Luckily my home improvement Super Hero stepped in to save my project. He does this every time I start something. Really without him I would never be able to finish any projects. We repacked the facuet and put in a new washer and Bingo! no more leaking.
I finally finished painting the ceiling in the art studio, it was painful, and I am stalling about painting any other ceilings any time soon. our next project is to put another shelf in our washer closet. i'll post pictures soon.
