A while back, we purchased a new faucet to replace our drippy, older, too-low kitchen faucet. That was probably 6 months, maybe even 10 months, ago. I've tried subtle hints to get that thing installed by DH since then, but yesterday it was finally done! Woohoo!
Here's how my latest ploy worked...I picked up a "handyman-guide" plumbing book at the library with the page flagged that showed how to replace a faucet in easy steps and color photos.
This has been on the coffee table in front of the TV for about a week, and I think the point got made. Or maybe it's the holiday spirit, maybe it's the "helpless pregnant wife" image I've developed, or maybe it was just time to tackle the task. No matter the reason, I'm happy to say we've got a new, leak-free faucet!
DH's only comment was the book said "the project can be done by a novice in about an hour." His day-long project may have gone a bit over that alloted time, but it's done!
