One thing I always taught my kids was punctuality as I hate being late. It was nice to see that the plumber who said he would be here at 10am was actually here at 10am. The reason I say I taught my children to be punctual is that the plumber is my son!!
He came equipped with his tools and I totally expected to need a new hot water heater but luckily it was only some thingamajig that needed to be replaced so it was an easy fix.
While he was here I took advantage of his muscles and had him change the water filter in the refrigerator and bring up the Christmas decorations from the basement.
As you can see I totally took advantage!
Now he's off to do other jobs and my heart is smiling cause it's not often I get to hug and kiss the plumber!!

You have a very special plumber. I don't think I'd ask ours to change the water filter in the fridge!

Nice it was an easy fix. And yup that's what sons are for, to do the heavy lifting.

I am glad it worked out with the plumber. I got used to people not coming on time. Some get held up in traffic or there are others that cannot find a parking space. The ones we have here fill up fast.
