Shower Revitalization

I finally got to use my shower again.

Susan decided that the upstairs shower needed a thorough cleaning. I didn't think it was that bad. But once I saw the finished result after she went through it, I was startled and a bit ashamed. I had let it get far too grungy.

On top of taking a course brush and scrubbing every grout seam in the whole shower, she resealed the grout with a sealer she painted on. It was white so it nicely covered the old grout lines.

It had to dry for 72 hours so I had to use the downstairs shower all week.

It was glorious to get back to my shower space and really enjoy and good clean stall.

I WILL NOT let it get that bad again.

Television Issues

 I have been in the hospital for the last five days. So what happens when I go in the hospital? The TV at home goes on the Fritz. 

Susan was good and stressed out by what was going on with me and my heart. All she wanted was to come home and relax and wind down with a little television.

But Noooooooooooooo!

She got home to an empty house to find no TV working.

I got out of the hospital yesterday and I’m mostly okay. She scheduled a visit from the Dish TV people for today. The guy arrived around 11:30 and was gone by just after 12.

The issue was the cable lines that went up our deck post to the satellite dish. We had a grape vine growing there and over the years, the vines rubbed away all the insulation on many parts of the wire. 

The technician replaced a section of wire and we cut down the grape vine. So much for Gerwertstrameiner.

Now I am home from the hospital and we have TV! Life is good!!!
