He ran a new septic line today. He just connected it to the old 90 elbow under the house for today (was running out of light) and snaked it so we have proper water flow now. He is still going to get under the house and replace the elbow sometime this weekend, but now we aren't limited to short showers and I can do laundry! Soooo happy!!
Also, DH always tends to hurt himself somehow doing stuff. We joke that the job isn't done until he has been injured. Today he hit his shin with a pickaxe. We're just waiting to see how big of a bruise that leaves. I promise, this is totally normal for him. Last summer he took a metal post to the chest while working in the backyard and has a nice 3 inch scar from the cut it left.
