If you want to call what he did "playing," yes he did. Same. I try to filter it out.

Just turned the game on. Looks like I got some catching up to do:

Not exactly breaking. He didn't play last night.

I suppose $.35 might buy a pitcher back in 1948...

Got the rest of the cabinets out this morning, laid down some new plywood in the cabinet area, extended the plank flooring into the cabinet area. Finished just now with another coat of paint on the ceiling (which will be mostly, but not entirely, hidden by the cabinets). Tomorrow, gonna work on that wall. 🤮

Dude can penalty kill, I'll give him that. I think he looked okay on the line with... Mitts and Jost was it? He makes those around him tougher.

Yeah, I can't even listen to a second of that guy even if he's drowning in his own tears.

Found under my kitchen cabinet: 1948 nickel.

Yup, just got a similar quote, Cape Cod in Kenmore, house and garage, full tear off, soffit and gutter replacemnt, a few windows. 75K. And that was without the materials. That's more than I paid for my first house... the WHOLE house. And almost as much as my second house.

To be fair I'm not doing any actual "plumbing" as in messing with the copper pipes. Just the connections to the drain and to the supply lines. After my son came home he demolished the cabinet next to the dishwasher while I discombobulated the plumbing. The wood under the cabinets has some rot; I going to put fresh plywood in there. Also the walls behind the dishwasher and sink are in worse shape than I thought. Pulling the Formica backsplash pulled the drywall with it; it's all pretty brittle. So I'll need additional drywall as well. Tomorrow starts with a trip to Lowe's.

After my negative review in the thread about him, I really noticed that tonight. He's tough to play against when he's penalty killing.

If they don't know who Bobby Vinton is, their babcia didn't raise them right.

Perhaps not exactly, but every babcia in Buffalo loves Bobby Vinton.

Dahlin was there but didn't look back to see who was coming. Gotta show better awareness.

So I had to cut the cabinet away around the pipes. By the way: You may notice the hot water feeds are still connected. That's because the hot water shut off valves don't.... quite.... shut off. Connecting both ends of the dishwasher supply line was the only way I could think of to prevent the constant drip drip drip.

My wife left to see her parents this morning, and I primed some of the walls to cover up the old dingy paint and the ceiling where cabinets were removed. Again, trying to be quiet because my son was sleeping. Once he left for work I started to make some noise. I dove into the pit of hell: The plumbing under the sink. Because the original galvanized supply lines that came through the wall were replaced by copper lines coming up out of the floor but the outside faucet branches off the new pipes and go out through the wall, the only way to get the sink cabinet out was to cut away the area around the pipes. You can see the setup when I started:

So I got this done on Sunday, plus also some repair of drywall holes in areas where I'm not replacing wholesale, and some spackling.
