Whoops I did it again!

2 minute read time.

The title is not a reference to the Britney Spears single (though I did like her in that video for Toxic when she wore virtually nowt) it is because I am blogging again and, well you'll see!

So Thurs night was all about getting the broken dishwasher out of the kitchen ready for tomorrow's new arrival. Now W had said to me "pay the extra money so they (Comet) take it all out and fit the new one", no way I can do it easy. So I start to pull out the said appliance and then realise what will happen if I take out the drainage pipe. "Ummm W if I take it out tonight you can't use the sink till the new one is in, so I'll do it in the morning". So I push the aforementioned appliance back in it's home and OMG I've tore a 2" hole in the lino. Will W notice I wonder? (That should go in the dumb questions forum!) So that is the WHOOPS!

Friday morning and it has to come out, the dishwasher that is. No matter how hard I tried the pipes wouldn't stay in the bucket so smelly water everywhere (another WHOOPS!). I am doing this in my dressing gown and bagov schitt is getting in the way and I really could do with a drain myself. Finally the dishwasher is out and in the back garden, and I can get ready for work and more meetings about big sales opportunities.....

Back home, after a sneaky bacon butty, to fit the now delivered new appliance. After 15 mins of relieving said appliance of it's packaging which filled my black bin, it was a doddle to fit. So finally on goes the drainage pipe and guess what? Its a different size to the old one!!!! Off to BnQ and get 4 Jubilee clips cos usually I get the wrong size, back home and yes it is done. Now the technical stuff I leave to W (how to fill it up and turn it on).

OK now this is it, I am feeling good about stuff and I am going to go for a run, ok a jog. I used to run 4 miles but after about 300yds I realise that aint going to happen. Still just over 2 miles in 25 mins and my first run since my OP in Jan. So that is the AGAIN! Even better news W agrees to celebrate by going to the pub for a couple of drinks later, as long as I drive, ha!

Looking forward to the weekend.
