Garage interior door foam insulation replacement


Fed up with the garage door that opened into the dryer (pictured below), I bought a replacement that would open into the side room. I went with a steel exterior type.

I bought a second for the garage-to-outside door, this one will be a challenge because it requires a dog door.

Then caulking and trimming on both.

The sod is still alive. The black bamboo should eventually grow alongside the railing in the left part of the image. In the same planter, under the deck, I put the large jade bush I got from SFS nursery.

Thanks to Jon, I have plywood up in the master bathroom so it's time to think about fixtures. Shower head, body sprays, done. Price Pfister had a nice diagram illustrating the closed loop plumbing necessary for body sprays.

I'm tired of my one-horse shower. I'm going on a shower strike, no showers 'til you've got this finished and I can come down and use it. I hope you're planning on having body spray from more than just the same angle as the shower head. And what if you're in there with the lady and she wants a different temperature? What then? You need another shower setup on the other wall with separate controls.

Two body sprays at a tbd separation, swively. A second head would probably require another line, but that's okay because I have a strict my-temperature policy in showers. Even when I'm not there it has to remain at my temperature.


It's true. To change the temp I have to sneak downstairs and adjust the water heater settings while Chris is preoccupied watching his evening stories.

That does sound like as easier option than dual head in mine

One year

 So the little one had is first birthday this weekend. Cuteness abounded, and was equilibrated that night when his pops and friends went to see Zombieland. Great movie, I'd recommend it to anyone. It's funny, gruesome, and doesn't try to shoehorn too ...

 You might think the subject line is an elaborate metaphor, but you'd be wrong. You know that logic puzzle where you have to transport a wolf, a sheep, and a bale of hay across the river in a canoe and can only carry one of them at a time?
