And The Livin' Is Easy...
This really has been an easy summer.
The weather, so far, has been very agreeable
and time is slowly moving along.
We've moved some furniture around
to make space for a larger area rug that is coming to the sitting room.
My thought was to move the game table and chairs into the parlor.
The Captain did not agree at all and I had a few doubts myself,
but we both think that we do like it.
If it becomes a problem for the Christmas tree set up, then we will rethink it.
We moved the two blue armchairs back into the sitting room
until we can replace them with a couple of easy chairs.
This room, for me, has always been
a hard nut to crack as far as decorating.
I am trying to push it a little more
towards country prim.
More to come about this later.
It's funny how quickly
some easy living can turn into torture.
Have you ever noticed that?
I will make a long story short.
I noticed some water on the library floor
which after a quick clean up
turned into more water on the library floor
and on the guest bedroom floor as well.
It turned out our second bathroom
which is situated between the two rooms
sprung a leak in the pipe connected to the toilet
and that water had to go somewhere.
We called a plumber
and he found other leaks under the Cottage.
It seems that our water pressure was too high
and had blown through the pipes
over a period of time.
That is just how our city water pressure is
and I wish someone had told us
that the installation of a pressure valve
would have solved the problem.
But no one did and now we know.
After a good amount of money
and some raised hardwood floors
we are now all good.
Hope all is well with you
and will see you next time.
