A bit tired. Worked my full day of work then I had to help my neighbor out , his water heater crapped out.

Running around getting parts and new heater , drained and took the old one out , sweated in a couple new fittings , got the new one in place , hooked up all connections , tied in the power , purged the tank of air and energized it.

My neighbor is 84yo , so 99% of the work was on me.

Gonna sleep good tonight and my neighbor can take a hot shower. He is happy.

Pooped....... frown

I slept good last night too. Started at 530 got home 830. Might be another long one today. Oh well, light bill got paid.

Thanks to everyone for the nice comments. I'm still a bit tired , but my neighbor got a nice hot shower last night.

When he contacted me about having problems with his heater leaking , I was thinking , I'm kinda busy and maybe in a day or two I could help him out. Then he told me he had no hot water.

I made time. He went instantly to the top of my priorities. Got it done.

I have the greatest neighbor. I can't say enough good things about him. He has done favors for me a lot and I have done a lot of favors for him.
About 15 years ago he got his shoulder redone. That takes a bit to recover. He heats his house primarily with wood. With his shoulder healing he couldn't use his wood splitter and I split about 5-6 cords that summer so he had enough to get through the winter.
When I was working long shifts at the paper mill I worked at , sometimes I would come home to find he snowblowed my driveway clear. You have no idea how nice it is to see that after a long shift. Pure gold.

Again , I can't say enough good things about my neighbor.

Sounds like both of you hit the jackpot when it comes to having a good neighbor.
