Triumph

It was nearly five years ago that Craig completely remodeled our master bathroom.  And for the most part, we have LOVED our bathroom.  The heated floor, especially, was a lifesaver this very cold winter!  But then we began to gradually notice one major problem: the sink faucet was slowly no longer working.  When you turned the tap on all the way, the best you would get would be this tiny trickle of water.  Like this:

It was so wussy, it could barely clear the sink.  And sometimes it wouldn't, and you'd end up with a puddle of water around the base of the sink bowl.  But worse than that was the simple fact that there was barely enough water to wash your hands in.  And since the bowl of the sink is set back from the faucet a little, it was difficult to even fit your hands under that worthless little trickle of water.  It would take five minutes just to rinse all the soap off your hands, and ten minutes (literally!) if you wanted to give the water time to warm up.

Clearly, this wasn't going to work.

But that stupid faucet was on the expensive side, so we weren't super eager to just run out and buy a new one.  So Craig did what he does, and took the whole thing apart.  And, because he's awesome, he totally figured out how to fix it!

And now, the water comes gushing out.  Like this:

Really!  It gushes.  And it's beautiful.  And you can wash your hands so fast!  The water even gets hot after just a few seconds!  And it makes me happy every time I use it now.  Al Gore would probably not be pleased.  But Al Gore wasn't the one strategically trying to get his hands just right under that dumb trickle in hopes that he might be able to actually get his entire hand rinsed off or else be stuck walking around with sticky soap remnants all over his hands, so I don't really care if he wouldn't like it.  This new and improved sink is freaking awesome.

I'm back to loving my bathroom again.
