From engineer to plumber

Ben played plumber with his dad this weekend and put in a new water heater. It started leaking on Friday, and was worse on Saturday – the day of Anna’s birthday party which I will blog about later. Most reapir places were either closed or wanted $100 just to come look at it. Ben found one guy who came do a free estimate, but he wanted $950 to do the job!! Finally after some more research Ben bought a water heater from Sears for $450 and he and his dad installed it. They had to take a break for Anna’s party, and finished up somewhere around 12:30am. At one point I heard them joking with each other that they should quit their jobs and become plumbers, lol. Uhhhhh…..yeah. I guess when all is said and done, I’m just much more grateful for hot running water!
