What my day was like?....shit

[FlintTony]

Started early this morning. Guy has an ad on Craigs list for estate an sale. Many tools, tool boxs, car parts, and so on. Drive over there, no signs anywhere and he didn't put his address in the ad. Go to another one that is supposed to have all kinds of mechanic tools. Same deal, nowhere to be found. Get back home, Kathy has a new 7 month Germsan Shepard pup. Said pup jumped on back of couch, climbed half-wall, traveled 15 feet along wall to get to plate of cat food. Slipped at the kitchen sink, snapped the spout off the faucet, hit the single handle on-off lever, and it stayed on. Water all over hell, but the bulk of it went down the drain. I spent 4 hours working on it, taking 3 old ones apart to get parts to fix this one. Ended up soldering an old diverter valve assembly to the broken one. Finally got it to seal up. Kathy takes a shower around 4, before we go out to eat dinner. Says water won't shut off. Tear the thing down. Broken quad seal. Hit the local hardware, no parts for Delta "Scald-Guard" faucet. Go to 3 other HW stores, same thing. The one that I was going to in Clio is closed up. New Wal-mart store at the other end of town. Another mom and pop store gone. I end up making a center push-rod tube seal from a Shovelhead Harley work. Pup tore the house up while we were gone. Wonder just how good that cat food she got tasted?
