Just a Few More Days

Home » Life » Just a Few More Days

In: Life, Uncategorized on: May 13, 2013

Saturday was supposed to be the end of our bathroom remodel. I was going to take pictures, create a cool before/after collage to post and relax. But it was not to be. Right at the end, literally the very end, we had an issue with the old sink plumbing while trying to hook up the new fixtures. Thankfully, there is now tile on the bathroom floors and in the closet, for there was water everywhere! It will require a plumber to take care of the issue, and thus a few more days until the bathroom is truly “done.” At least we can use most of it. And the upside is that we are scheduling the plumber to also take care of a couple of other things in the other bathrooms that we’ve been putting off in order to save trip charges. So that’s good, I guess.

I know I should be grateful. The fact is that there was so much in this old house that could have gone wrong and didn’t. Another few days won’t matter. As long as everything is finished by the time my graduation house guests arrive!

"The Work of His Hands: a novelette”

Bea wants nothing more than to go to college and learn more about the world God created. Her mother even left money in trust for her to do so. She only wishes her father supported her dream. But when Papa gets into financial trouble in the young town of Fort Worth, Texas, Bea must decide what is more important—her education or her father's well-being. Can she trust the God of creation to make something beautiful of her life?”
