Middle Path seeker: Sunrise EP12 - The 4th of July Weekend

Ducky flew back to Nashville, TN again on June 18th and came back on Wednesday July 3rd. I went to see him from July 3rd to July 7th. On July 3rd, we went to have Vietnamese dinner at Pure Pho in Gainsville.

I helped with caulking on July 4th. July 4th was also a special day as Ducky got the powder room vanity installed! We also tried more colors on the siding outside. Finally, we got our final picks! "Rococo Beige" for the siding and "Berry Brown" for the trims. We also got the final picks for the blinds for the 2nd floor rooms and Ducky ordered them with July 4th buy one get one free promotion. I dressed up with red dress from Thailand and we went to Olive Garden in the evening.

Oh, I've got to write here that I just had root canal done on the tooth #5 on July 2nd. My goodness! I felt hurt so bad that I took 2 200 mg Ibuprofen and 500 mg Acetaminophen all at once that night which I had never taken that many before.

On July 5th,I did a great job painting the trims in the living room. Luckily the walls are also white even with slightly different white than the trims, but they are white! Even though, I did take my time to carefully paint them. Ducky worked in the master bathroom to get it ready for the smart toilet. He also continued the vanity work trying to find and fix the leak in the powder room. Friday evening of July 5th, we went to Blue Bicycle, our favorite restaurant to celebrate more jobs well done.

On July 6th, Ducky again did a fantastic job installing the smart toilet. The installation really needed our brain power. 😅 I was so nervous to do my assigned task of bending down and guiding the toilet base holes to their pairing screws. And Ducky was so brilliant to think about using 2 pieces of wood technique so, we could just pair them one side at a time. I helped adding one more smart idea 😁 to the technique but doubling the pieces of wood so the toilet would sit higher than the screw. Well, it was hard to explain but after all, our next smart toilet installation if we ever want it again would be so easy like eating a banana. 😁 (That is true as long as Ducky is the handyman, not me.)

My first time trying the "bidet" thing both front and back was so awesome. I screamed and I felt so tickled.😂 I had to hold Ducky's arm as I was ready to jump out from sitting on the toilet. Later on, that weekend, I tried it again 2-3 more times and now I am a pro! LoL

Smart toilet is so FUN to use!

That evening, we went to ... (continue the next EP)

See how Ducky loved the smart toilet!
