In which my house is failing
Can I just tell you about my day??? Of course I can because (let’s all say in unison here) this is MY blog.
Anyhoo…
Two weeks ago my AC unit froze up
They came and looked at it
Pronounced it fine
It froze again
They came back
Again they couldn’t find a problem
It froze up
They came last week when I was at Mom 2.0 Summit
They said it was fixed
Last night it froze up
I called
They said, “we can’t find a problem”
I said, “there clearly is a problem”
Ugggghhhh
Two years ago my shower mixer broke
We replaced it
By ripping out the entire shower
Now it broke again
Plus all my cold water is scalding
So brushing your teeth with hot water is … HOT
So is the shower
I have to rip out the shower
… again
today the plumber came and removed the fixtures
today the tile guys came and ripped out the tile
tomorrow the plumber is coming and HOPEFULLY fixing the plumbing
Wednesday the tile guys are coming and hopefully replacing the plumbing
Thursday the plumber is coming and replacing the fixtures
Saturday we can use the shower again
Hopefully
Meanwhile the AC guys finally called back and said they don’t know what to do
So …
I haven’t worked out
I’ve hung out with plumbers
… and tiling guys
… and maybe AC guys
… and also a garage guy
Oh? Did I mention that?
No, guess not … thinking about garage organization
In other words, I’ve accomplished nothing
Uggghhh…
I don’t remember my parents house always falling apart
See ya

I hope you have another shower to use! LOBO
I feel for you! We were about to put our house on the market, had just finished repainting and repairing walls inside, when we saw a leak. And it wasn’t just a minor leak- it was a leak that required our front yard be dug up, holes cut in walls, concrete slab jackhammered away, hardwood floors being torn up….and did I mention we were putting out house on the market and were on a tight timeline? Talk about stress!
Hope it gets better!
That’s terrible and much worse. Good luck
Think of it as an opportunity to redo the bathroom ~ get some new tile and change things up.
I’ve got to ask – – wtf is a shower mixer? Sounds like something The Barefoot Contessa would have. ;)
I’m not changing the bathroom though. I love my bathroom. A mixer mixes the hot and cold water to whatever temp you want or it’s supposed to
I had an AC unit that froze up and it was because the condensation drain pipe was blocked up causing the unit to freeze up. Hope that helps. What is a shower mixer anyway?
It’s mixes the hot and cold to make warm…hopefully
I live in a 100 year old house… everything breaks … daily… and now my roof is leaking… in a new spot. (I put a new roof on 3 years ago) it never ends. when you own something it is your personal money pit.
Uggghhh. I’m sure it’s gorgeous but what a pain
You accomplished a funny post: ) Were any of the tile guys, AC guys, or plumber guys cute? Any plumber butt action. Bluck.
So NOT cute it’s sad. Been writing a saga of a post on them
