We built a manifold for the four valves that we’ll start with. We still need to run the funny pipe and drip irrigation and program the sprinkler timer. We hope to get the rest done in the next week or so.

We also mounted a garden hose on the fence. And, I was able to re-use a 1/2 in. shut-off valve, so that I can turn off all the sprinkler valves (should something go horribly wrong), while keeping the garden hose charged.

Bazinga!

I love you, babe!

I’m also hoping that Crisha and I will be a bit more active than I have been over the last … long while.

Yesterday, I was able to pull a string between the carport attic and the house attic, over the carport doors. I’m excited to be able to pull cables through there. I’m thinking about putting phone and maybe data ports in the carport closet, as well as pull a control line from the garage door opener into the house — and, of course, sprinkler lines from the controller in the laundry room out to the strawberries.

Gene, took all the tiles down over a weekend.  I took all the cement down over three weeknights.  And he and I both removed the tub and replaced the bad lumber on a Sunday afternoon.  The new bath is yet to come.

I wasn’t feeling well on Monday.  So, I left work after being there about an hour.  I slept a bit, but I’m still not feeling 100%.  Today, Crisha is feeling pretty bad.  We think she may have strep throat and/or an ear infection.  She has a doctor’s appointment, later this morning.
