Everything but the kitchen sink...

With wedding season finally winding down a bit, Josh and I decided it was high time the house got a good cleaning.  So, we headed over to the new Target in Dublin (crowded!), loaded up on cleaning supplies, and started scrubbing.  After a while, the house was starting to look pretty darn good, so we called it a day and moved on to making dinner.  As I was setting the table, I heard Josh say "Huh."  This is rarely a good thing.  I turned around to find him holding the handle of the kitchen sink faucet.  Sadly, it was no longer attached to the kitchen.  Turns out the little fork bracket (or whatever you want to call it) had simply sheared off, and there was no fixing it.  It was time for a new kitchen faucet.

After an informative trip to Lowe's, we had a snazzy new faucet and a complete realization that this was well beyond our home-maintenance skills.  So, we also ordered Lowe's installation services, and we should have a working kitchen sink sometime this afternoon.  In the meantime, you would not believe how much a broken kitchen sink can affect your day when you work out of your house.  We've taken to keeping a pitcher of water next to the sink as a replacement, but food prep and washing dishes is still a little sketchy without a steady flow of water to the dish disposal, and making tea or coffee requires a trip to the bathroom.  Yeah.  Needless to say, we took the Lowe's salesperson's advice and ate out last night.

Happy Tuesday!
