Make plans... get them changed!

          I've been out of service today to attend a church function, breaking ground for a new facility.  I had planned to go back in service in the morn, but some cranky old plumbing changed that plan.  A nice broken tub faucet necessitated a call to price a plumber stopping by and a trip to the hardware store in the morn. 

          Of course, we know how plans can change again.  Even tho I was out of service, dispatch called with a good paying short run that I can pick up early in the morn, deliver by noon, and run back home, THEN get the plumber out here.  Eh, what can I say... $$$$ talks :-)   I left a message on the plumber's voicemail, so hopefully he gets back with me soon.  Not used to dealing with them, so hoping for a good price. Usually my wife's brother is our plumber.. but he just got out of the hospital, so I guess we'll let him slide on this one !
