DW also had her "to do" list for me. New washing machine install and kitchen & bathroom backsplash installs.



Now it's time for a few cold ones and see which new Superbowl commercial I like best!

Is that regular household tile and what did you use to secure it and I assume regular grout?, I like that backsplash mod

It is probably "smart tile" it is a self adhesive tile sheeting. It can be had at the Lowes, HD and such.

We used what's called; "Latex-Modified Mortar" specifically made for glass tile from Lowes. It works very well. Once it sets up, you grout with your preference of grout color. The Mortar works great it'll easily hold the glass tile sections on a vertical wall.

One word of caution, I got too generous with the trowel and the motar leaked thru the tile cloth mesh and I had to clean out some mortar before I could grout, so don't get too carried away applying the mortar.

Had an electrician buddy come and wire in a 12v to 24v voltage regulator thing- it fixed a power issue that I was having with my WifiRanger.

He installed a thing that has a pair of USB outlets in my tech cabinet area.

He installed a 120v outlet under my dinette so that I can plug my printer in.

And lastly, he installed a strip of white LEDs behind my headboard for some nice lighting in our bedroom.

Say "brown chicken BROWN COW" out loud, no kidding. It sounds like that cheesy music porn from the 80's used.

I was a typical teenager in the 80's. What can I say?

Dinette Replacement

We removed the wobbly dinette in our Salem Cruise Lite with this custom made table with more storage and sitting for 2. Granted, it won't convert to a bed, but neither could the factory unit. Everything is convenient and easy to reach. Just got back from Florida and am very pleased with it.

The other good news is I found it.

The crappy news is, it's the back of my water heater.
