#plumbing — Public Fediverse posts

Great now my #Kitchen #faucet needs to be replaced, my kitchen sink faucet has had a slow leak for longer than I can remember, but I was always able to find a way to shut it off, the last week not so lucky, have to keep a dish rag wrapped around it, its just enough to make the rag damp in a day, it has been slowly developing an internal leak, and it is now progressively worse, there goes another $125 I don't actually have, and since I don't have a tub, and I drink tap water all day long I really to to fix this, not to mention I have no idea how I will actually replace it, and before anyone asks, yes it is my responsibility to either replace and repair it myself or pay to have it done, that is no happening paying to replace it myself is more than I can afford, no way to pay someone, not looking forward to it but it has to be done, I have a new one ordered sometime this week it will be here, im not looking forward to changing it, the space I have to work in is could barely hold a dell inspiron 530, actually I don't think it would fit at all, I have to take off the garbage disposal first, and then unhook the water lines and then play find the nut that holds the faucet to the sink, all one handed and without any visual ability to see, I cook and clean using it, I need it, still have no clue what I will actually do for #food this month, O yea the hell keeps getting deeper for this #disabled man existing in #poverty;

Not having a great morning here. Had no hot water last night, and this morning when I checked, the water heater is leaking all over the laundry room floor. Also, the water shutoff valve is frozen open, and the fastest plumber appointment we have found yet is Friday. Small-town living is sometimes a pain. Also home ownership.

The plumber went out to get some dinner. He expects he has about two hours more work to do tonight. It’s 600pm. I think we’re going to be working until after 9:00pm again tonight.

Insert the sign of frustration here.

Stressing out like nuts over here, kids. Like nuts.

The plumber just walked in the door. Here’s hoping he can wrap it up in two hours. Fingers crossed.
