Earlier this week I got a water leak under my house. I call a buddy of mine who is a plumber and he comes to check it out. He tells me that the a bunch of the pipes under my house are made from this old crappy material that they no longer even sell (house was built in the early 80's) and they are getting brittle which makes them very hard to repair. So he tells me that very soon I will have to replace them and we decide to do it this week. Might as well do it now than play the game of chase the leak.

So I have spent much of this week under my house while we rip out old pipe and put in new. You don't know how much you miss running water until you don't have it and working under a house is not fun. Plumbing work is a pain in the ass. I am very happy I never considered that as a career.
