Delay

Last night before water polo practice, I took the boys to Lowe's to pick up the range hood and door handles. The handles were another unbudgeted $320. Great. At least we were able to drop the stuff off before practice.

This morning, I get a call from Fred. He sounds disappointed/angry. The granite installation has hit a snag. Uh oh.

Seems like the installation guys didn't show up for work. So installation is put off until tomorrow. At least there wasn't a problem with the granite itself, I say. He says (without irony), "That's what I like about you. Always looking on the bright side."

heh heh

Actually, what I was thinking was: Thank freaking god that there wasn't a granite break... I don't think we can afford another grand for a slab of the rock.

Whatever.

The dishwasher was delivered today.

And granite tomorrow...
