At work I was asked to fill in next Saturday for one of the other employees, and being short on money, naturally accepted. I'll get six days of work next week too. Work is still okay. I like my two bosses, who both seem like just one of the gang to me.

I found out at midnight why my bath carpet has been wet. I had a noiseless leak in the hot water faucet. The 'seat' of the faucet completely unscrewed itself tonight, when I tried to turn the faucet off. Luckily my neighbor, who lives across the street was still up and he fixed it. I couldn't get the main water valve turned off, but my neighbor got the seat screwed back into the pipe anyway. My neighbors and neighborhood are wonderful.

The back bedroom ceiling is leaking again and Tracy can't sleep in her bed, because it's wet. I must get Mom's repairman here Monday to do whatever he can. The new ceiling is soaked and I hope it doesn't cave in again. The repairman thought he had the leak fixed last fall, but now it's leaking in a different place.
