Ever notice how things snowball, so to speak? I picked up two new outside doorbell buttons (original to the house)...and during installation we discovered the back door chime isn't working. The front one works fine....but what can we expect from a fifty-two year old (also original) doorbell?
This is the current cover....replaced a few years back....the original was metal....with rounded edges & had about seven coats of paint in an attempt to "pretty it up"......this one was an upgrade....
The problem is not with the doorbell button...but the actual doorbell itself! I give you exhibit B - The actual workings of newer models have not been changed (thankfully) over the years & we are able to find one that hopefully will be compatible....and comes with two outside buttons....
We were not able to source locally....so "Mamazon"(as we jokingly call it)... (Amazon) it is! It should be a much needed upgrade!
Yesterday.....was extremely hot here with high humidity.....today is cooler but still warm! Then we go back into wet & cooler temperatures....where is our hot & humid summer, as forecasted?
It was my first dip in the pool....it felt amazing! And one of the few times I was able to get a good night's sleep without knee pain....
I forgot to share, I did pick up the adorable bow vase & it makes for a perfect toothbrush holder!! As a rule, I shy away from breakables with tile floors in the bath & kitchen.....I'm a bit of a klutz....but this was too cute not to pass up....
Had this planter been a bit larger it could have made a cute bathroom waste basket.......
I'm planning to get out & about today....if my knee starts to hurt....I'll head for home! The difficult part is getting in & out of the driver's side of the SUV....
Thanks so much for being here today....I so appreciate your company! I will leave you with this final thought....
Til next time.....
