First thing this morning, I got a call from our plumber. She said they had an opening this morning, and asked if we would like our stove put in today. YES PLEASE!!! Of course, none of the things I put in place for the installation tomorrow were in place today, but thats totally fine. I would take a slightly more challenging day with the babies if it meant I got my stove! Not only am I stoked to have a new stove, but I also just really miss having one at all 😅 It is a nightmare fun challenge to feed all ten of us without a stove! So I jumped at the opportunity.
I had anywhere from 2-4 guys in my house all day. They came and went, and worked like crazy. The new stove is vastly larger than the last, and WAY more powerful. So they needed to put in a much wider gas line. They were all up in the basement ceiling, in the backyard, and in the kitchen. Leah the Plumber’s employees are incredibly easy to have in the house. They work really quietly, super respectfully, and they are incredibly polite, informative, and patient. They never breathed a word down the hallway during naps. They always had smiles for the babies. They answered questions and made sure I understood all along the way. I could not endorese her more. LEAH THE PLUMBER, guys. They are amazing. And without being weird about it, as a woman, having those guys in my house felt totally safe and comfortable.
The job is not done. We’re asking a pretty large thing of them, changing the teeny little stove top to a behemoth. But after a days work, the stove is IN! Its in place. We can use it, safely!!! The proper venting is still to come, but it won’t be long before the whole shebang is done with!
So this evening, Brady and I toasted to the new stove, and to break it in, we’re having late night poutine supper. Because now, we can make gravy 🤣 And let me tell you. It cooked up SO FAST.
I’m a happy lady 😁
