Pizza and da Boyz . . .
Today started off great!
I didn’t get awakened by a blown circuit breaker.
Actually it was a pretty quiet morning with coffee and some computer work.
Later in the morning I used the cartridge removal tool I got yesterday to remove my shower faucet cartridge. Or at least I tried to.
It wouldn’t quite work, so I had to improvise something to help get it out, but I finally got it loose.
Then around noon Nick and I rode over to Home Depot to see if I could find a replacement cartridge. I did find one that looked like it would work, but it had been opened and taped back together. It was the only one they had, so I didn’t have much choice.
And, of course, when I got home, inside the new cartridge box was the proper removal tool, which I wouldn’t have had until I got the old cartridge out and knew which one to buy.
Of course.
About 2:30 Jan and I drove back over to the Fortuna area, this time to visit some stores to solicit gift certificates as door prizes for the Gypsy Gathering Rally. We had pretty good luck, picking up 4, and being told to come back tomorrow to pick up prizes from 3 other places.
Getting back about 4:30 we soon were on our way back out to eat supper at Da Boyz Italian Cuisine on Main St. in downtown Yuma, along with Tom, Barb, Nick, and Terry.
We ate here last year, and it was just as good this time. This is really great Italian. We all had a little bit of everything, pizza, spaghetti, lasagna, and ravioli, and no one was disappointed.
We got back home about 7:30 and I started working on the shower faucet. It took a lot of fooling with it, mainly due to the fact that the instructions were in English, French, and Spanish, but they didn’t make sense in any of those.
Finally, I stopped reading the instructions, figured it out on my own, and got it working. No more drip!
Tomorrow Jan and I will hit some more places for door prizes, and then about 3:30 we’ll head back over to Gila Bend, 116 miles away, to be initiated into the Elks Lodge there.
Another busy day.
