The Kitchen Sink

You know that saying "brought everything except the kitchen sink"?

There's a reason that's ironic. It's because the kitchen sink is a pain in the ass to move. I speak from personal experience in this. My charmingly adorable old house has a less than charming and adorable kitchen sink. It's old. It's pitted. It's got serious calcium deposits. It's leaking, and I need to replace it.

The difficulty..... it's a porcelain over cast-iron behemoth of a sink. It's been living there happily for 75 years... you try telling a 75 year old they need to move. And then try lifting cast iron.

As we say in Minnesota - this particular home repair is going to be 'interesting.'

I'll keep you posted.
