over the weekend, a valve broke in my parents’
shower. because we didn’t want it to leak into the walls and ceilings, we shut
the water off. the part we need is sold out everywhere. it’s not available
online as is the case with the local home depot, lowe’s, and various plumbing
stores. the part isn’t going to be available until june! can you believe?? so
at lunch today i’m scouring the internet in hopes to find it. there is a faucet
shop in chicago that doesn’t have the part, but they have a replacement to the
replacement. i call the lady, order the part, and have it overnighted to us
here in ma. i’m hoping and praying it’s the right part, because shutting the
water on and off until summer is going to be so inconvenient.
let’s hope, fingers crossed.
