I haven't slept well in a few days, getting worse.
Got an appointment to see the doc this morning.
Now I have a dose of steroids waiting for me at the Pharmacy. Even the doc said this was a really bad case. She was very happy that I came in now before it went fully systemic and got infected.
Oh and yesterday i was rinsing the technu off of the rash on my leg before heading to work and touched the side of the shower with my toes... and:
There's a hole in the wall.
It is soaking wet behind the tile.
Yes the tile was installed directly onto sheetrock. Yes the rock is completely saturated with water and perfectly perforated along the grout lines.
Yes - i wasn't planning on doing a bathroom re-model, but guess I'm going to add this to getting the car ready for inspection. Or actually before that happens.
SO MUCH FUN.
And being gone all morning at the docs has set me way back. And no bike riding today.
Mountain bike weekend after dropping kid off has turned into LETS REMODEL THE BATHROOM WHILE IT IS JUST ME IN THE HOUSE. Sigh...
I did block off three days next week. So it'll be a light week in the microscope lab but heavy on the house and car fixing.
if it isn't one thing it is another.
if i didn't get the PI the shower might have falling apart while a guest was in the house - or while I was covered in soap instead of just standing outside the shower rinsing off shit. Tiles dropped into the wall instead of into the tub so the enamel on the cast iron didn't get wrecked.
Coulda been worse. Still kind of frustrating.
Validating when your doc freaks out at seeing it all, guess taking the time to head there was a good thing. Maybe the steroids will make me all big like Ahhnold.
