Three Beautiful Things 07-23-2025: Plumbing Problem Fixed Quickly, Relaxing at the CdA Casino, Errands in CdA

1.  The plumber started his day an hour early. He had a full day starting at 8:00, so asked me if he could check out the unruly water problem under the kitchen sink at 7:00. 

No problem. 

Our kitchen faucet is one attached to a hose and we can pull it out and, say, put water in a container on the counter. Within a minute or two, he identified that the hose leading into the faucet head was loose and in a split second he tightened it and now water no longer went underneath the sink nor into the basement. 

Tiny problem. 

Capable of making quite a mess, though. 

So tiny, the plumber didn't charge me for his work. 

Mostly I was relieved that the repair was so easy and I could use the faucet and sink again. 

I deeply appreciated that he essentially gave me his work as a gift. 

2. I like going to the CdA Casino on Wednesdays. This month, the casino is awarding double points on club members' player card on Wednesdays and I was carrying a food voucher for the month of July in my wallet. 

Uplifted by the good plumbing news, I headed down to the casino, played for a while on a small amount of money, and enjoyed a cheeseburger and fries on the house! 

3. I continued my head clearing trip by fueling up at Costco and buying a bag of fresh vegetables at Pilgrim's in preparation for getting back into the salad making groove again. 

Back home Gibbs and Copper were happy.

I napped. 

I continued to relax and rest up in anticipation of my Thursday trip for an appointment and, I think, more labs at Sacred Heart.
