How Much do You Pay a Major Domo?

Still working on household BS today. Sometimes I understand why people used to live in tents.

I have been informed that the reason my pump repair did not work is that I used a fitting not suited to seal a system under pressure. There isn’t a whole lot of pressure in a pool pump return, but I guess it’s enough to make leakage a problem. I managed to find someone who will fix it for nothing, so I guess that nightmare is over. I can’t believe a simple repair to a piece of PVC pipe can be so difficult. Putting a new PVC project together is very easy. But try fixing an existing project. Completely different story.

I have this dream that one day I’ll own enough tools to make the vast majority of home repairs possible without bringing in outside help. Maybe that’s insane. But I didn’t expect to be stopped by ten inches of pipe.

I wonder how single women live. Most are hopeless with tools. I guess they end up paying a lot more than households with men.

When life resumes, so will blogging.
