Handy Ryan

We have some pretty bad pipes in this old house and every once in a while one will corrode through and leak. Well, one of these leaks wasn't very apparent, so we weren't able to find it 'til we found some mold inside our bathroom closet. 

We were able to have a plumber come "fix" the leak with some somewhat poor quality re-piping, from what we can tell. But, at least there was no more leak. What was left was the mess the leak had made to take care of.

Ryan pulled out all the damaged, moldy stuff and then went to the hardware store to get new insulation, drywall, etc. He took measurements and cut the drywall and insulation really nicely and then put it in. Definitely easier said then done, but he did a really good job.

Then he put the shelves back in. That's where I got to help with something, even though it was very small. Ryan let me pick where the shelves went back in. :-)

I never cease to be grateful to have such a handy husband around. He's so clever at fixing so many things around our house and he's learning more all the time.
