Yesterday...

Fri 061109

The day that was...yup, yesterday...

Well, 2 household maintenance items had been staring at me for some time...1 of them actually for months now!

Yup, the more recent one was that of a couple of finishing touches to the re-routing of our main water inlet pipe done recently. A couple of hooks needed to be put in place to secure the new piping structure and to complete the job, the damage to the wall had to be patched up.

So yesterday (051109) me did both of that.

Pic on left shows the end-result of the first maintenance item. Yup, the hooks were bought (RM0.60 only) & driven home into previously drilled holes & the damaged area around the main inlet pipe was patched up with loose cement bought (RM2 only).

So how does the area look now? Excuse, of course, the not-so-professional handiwork lo...hehe...

Of course, there is now the need to repaint that patched-up area. It is a "sight for sore eyes" as is, true?

The other maintenance item was a patch-up job for a missing piece of the underside of our roof terrace. Yup, a reasonably-sized piece of the cemented underside was in danger of falling off & me had to remove it some time back. Since I had available cement (bought mainly for the above-mentioned piping patch-up job), it was only natural that this patch-up was done. Agreed?

Not a good snapshot but here is a view of the patch-up. Ok la...right?

Today is gonna be a cold wet day...rain, rain & more rain! Cool is good. Wet is ok cos no plans to go anywhere. But luckily, it's not heavy...just a heavy drizzle & thus no worries about any possible flash flood. Thank God for that!

Have another great weekend, everybody! At least a relaxing one, ok?
