My Plumber



Last few weeks, I had a leak from my faucet, and I was wondering what to do about it.  If I hire a professional plumber, I'd like to fix more than one place.  But I could not think of any other plumbing problem.  To make this story short, my son came over early this morning and fixed it.   I wasn't sure if he could do it.  This blog is my appreciation to my son.

Trust my dear Keiko, you have a skilled son, and you saved a lot of money!

ZACL,

Thank you, ZACL. Any gadgets failing, I'm quite helpless. The first car I owned, I never changed oil. I have a friend who bought a brand new Japanese sport car and never changed oil. After three years or so, her car died. I think she got zero money out of that.

Cars need oil to function the way we need fuel to do the same.

ZACL,

Don't I know it! I don't drive anymore. I feel free from any worry regarding cars.

ZACL said...

:)

It will be a long while before I am in position to say that!

ZACL,

In recent years, our city has developed to the point I feel quite comfortable. There are two good super markets near by (about 5 min. by bicycle). And two bus lines are about 30 min. interval in operation. Car is much more convenient, but riding bus is very cheap.

Our facilities and transport infrastructure are not as well developed as yours. It would be comfortable, like you describe, if they were.

ZACL,

Yes, I understand. That's why your pictures are so enticing because it's far reach for me. I love to see the harsh sea and warm animals.

There are some recent ones I shall post soon.

I am finding the new code words system very difficult to read; do you? I have to repeat or change them to make them readable. I guess it's the same with my own site, I have the same system in process too, to filter out unwanted rubbish.

ZACL,

So, that is happening to add a comment on my post. I'm sorry for inconvenience although I haven't changed anything. That is annoying because I can't read well. Ten years from now, I probably cannot add any more comment. But by then, I hope the software developers come up with better security. Thank you for adding many comments. This celebrates my son's success in fixing my bathroom faucet!

ZACL said...

Wonderful!

I haven't changed anything either. I think Google may have changed the style of the words to prove that commentators are not robots.

It's probably getting harder and harder to prove we are NOT robots!

I wonder what the next process of proof will looking like!
