Blogger is still doing strange things........the plumber is back and has starting installing the kitchen side hot water heater. This should be so neat. I have a huge (but not claw foot) tub on that side of the house and I can't wait to fill it with hot water. Once the tub is warm it keeps the water warm. I am also having him put a new shower head in there since I think the one in there is the original. The faucets on the sinks are the original and are impossible to replace (they don't make anything like them anymore) so that is where he will change out the washers to make them work better and not drip. I know this sounds like a lot of work, but I knew all of this coming in, so it is no surprise and I got such a great deal on the house that it is worth it.

I pulled out Christmas decorations and ended up putting up just one tree and I still haven't decorated it. I am going to wait till next year. I plan on going shopping after Christmas to buy some new decorations.

I also starting thinking about replacing the old shades with wood blinds. Shades never want to co-operate when you need them too. And of course, a 1940 era house needs curtains, but I think they are a ways off. All of the windows are odd sizes and I am pretty sure this will have to be a make it myself job and there is way too much to do now. I want light and airy.....

The long arm has been oiled this morning and I am enjoying my hot chocolate as the oil penetrates to where it needs to go. I am quilting a beautiful but very unique T-shirt quilt that my client has made. I believe it is her first one and she has done a great job.

I guess I better go to work now. Have a great day!
