I've had 3 small victories in the last week. First I replaced the drain pump on our clothes washer, it works now -- for under $50.

Next, my grandfather (77) and I built a 6×6 a-frame chicken coop with under $50 of materials (I forgot to tally), we'll have 6 chickens in it sometime this week.

Last, I just finished installing an RO system and dusted off my plumbers-assistant experience from nearly 3 years ago to do it. It took a bit to remember how to do everything, but it's all together, not leaking and dribbling out water for the first system purge.

I'll take some wins.
