Well, you've read the notes, the notes had a surprising twist that made you want to shout, and now it is time for you to post until the twisting and shouting cows come home.

And the word of the day is APPRECIATIVE!

Notes imbibed, contemplated.

So yesterday, I took the time to put my new vanity into my little downstairs powder room, and I did it all by myself! However, nothing's actually hooked up yet. I still need to get some silicone sealant, two flexible connector pipes, and the drain pipe. Fortunately, those are all fairly inexpensive and in stock. Then, I'll have a working sink again!

George · « **Reply #4 on:** February 26, 2023, 12:36:22 AM »

Here's what it looks like...but don't look too closely at the floor. I have to get a whole new floor for the entire downstairs and that's not going to happen for quite a while. Anyway, here's the vanity:

And here's a close-up of the sink and faucet:

I also still need to put up the mirror that my sister gave me, but I needed to know how the vanity fit in there before I could figure out where the mirror would go.

It's not an incredibly "special" design, but it was on sale for about $300 off, so that definitely was the deciding factor! Good enough for me!

AND the top drawer actually opens! It's not just a fake panel:

I don't know if I've ever seen anything like that. If I have I certainly don't remember it.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #10 on:** February 26, 2023, 01:06:16 AM »

Vanity insanity! That looks cool. I like the drawer and how it goes around the pipe. I dislike fake drawers. Drawers should be honest.

singdaw · « **Reply #11 on:** February 26, 2023, 04:06:33 AM »

Honest drawers is a necessity!

singdaw · « **Reply #12 on:** February 26, 2023, 04:06:43 AM »

Good morning, friends.

singdaw · « **Reply #13 on:** February 26, 2023, 04:07:57 AM »

From what I have now read, it appears the Megan Follows version of Anne is far superior to all other versions. Perhaps I will discontinue the one I started.

Did you know that cats have 32 different muscles in each ear - all to help them ignore you?

Very smart looking vanity, DR George. I also love the honest drawer.

Good morning, all!

elmore3003 · « **Reply #17 on:** February 26, 2023, 04:21:42 AM »

Hold the press!

I am alive. My neck is still a bit stiff, and my body is aching, but all is well. I am really grateful that the fall could have been serious, even deadly, and I came out of it pretty much intact: no blood and no broken anything.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #18 on:** February 26, 2023, 04:23:34 AM »

Even though I felt pretty bad, three cats give no damn. I still had to feed them and myself, then clean up mess we both made, and give them their treat before I could strip down to my skivvies and chill out.

I still think Andrew Lloyd-Webber missed by not writing Aspects of Aspics.

singdaw · « **Reply #20 on:** February 26, 2023, 04:24:43 AM »

Glad you are OK, DR elmore3003.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #21 on:** February 26, 2023, 04:26:16 AM »

Around 7:00, I started thinking about today. I would have preferred tp stay in bed all day, but Annabelle, Thatch, and Stella care little about my health, so I decided to sleep late as I dared: 6:15a.m., and I set the alarm. brushed the catys, and went to bed at 8:00.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #22 on:** February 26, 2023, 04:28:11 AM »

And at 9:30 my neighbor called - she's getting an email today - to tell me she had lugged up two cartons of Chewy.com and they were outside my door. The call gave her a chance to let me know what hell it was on her health as well.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #23 on:** February 26, 2023, 04:29:22 AM »

Well! I never asked her to drag those cartons up. I knew it was something I needed to deal with today, and if they sat in the lobby for a couple of days, so be it.
The Petsmart, Petco and Chewy cartons never get stolen.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #24 on:** February 26, 2023, 04:31:41 AM »

So here's a question for all today: how do you feel about telephone calls after,. say, 6:00p.m.?

elmore3003 · « **Reply #25 on:** February 26, 2023, 04:34:52 AM »

Today I must tidy, take the trash to the basement, pick up yesterday's mail, and work on the ballet for a bit. In the late afternoon, I need a long, hot bath.

Thanks!

I no longer have a land line, so late night calls are not a bother. I can choose to turn my cell off or leave it where I can't hear it.

singdaw · « **Reply #28 on:** February 26, 2023, 04:38:54 AM »

But anyone who know me knows that I go to bed early, so they don't call anyway.

singdaw · « **Reply #29 on:** February 26, 2023, 04:39:08 AM »

One more.
