So, yea, when you have no help
My husband and I don’t work well together. He prefers to work alone and that’s no secret. As a matter of fact, it isn’t just me that he doesn’t like working with, he simply doesn’t like to work with anyone. One reason is because he is really smart. And, when you are that smart, it is frustrating to work with folks who don’t understand what you are trying to do.
Add to that the fact that I can’t lift very much because of my back surgery from a few years ago and my husband is left to work on his own most of the time anyway. And, well, there’s the never ending relapses of mono….argh!
Anyway, part of this remodeling has been removing a tub and putting in a jacuzzi. I helped get it in the house but I’m telling you, it was not an easy task. We smashed each other fingers and toes, we had to turn it this way and that way, but he never got upset with me, he just kept saying, "ok, let me know when you are ready."
Anyway, once we got it into the bathroom, which was not an easy task mind you, we had to get it into the frame. That wasn’t easy either but we did it. He climbed around on all sides and we pushed and shoved and all that.
But, it had a leak….on the backside…yea wouldn’t it figure. So, he had to figure out a way, while I was sick, to get that leak fixed because this man loves himself a jacuzzi. So, here’s the contraption that allowed the man to work on the tub while I was in bed crying my eyes out over pain, not to mention the saws and smells of caulking and all that.
