There's no water pressure, so even without a ring you shouldn't really see leakage unless the flange is below the plywood. It should rest on top of the plywood.
What did you do today?

Cut grass most of yesterday. Today I am working on my on-line classes. Starting this semester with 47 hours. Taking another 9 this semester.
When are you cutting the rest of the grass.
Hoping it will dry enough by tomorrow. Water was standing in the back yard.
It's above the plywood but I think they didn't get the toilet set quite right. I think it was just a smidgeon too far forward. When I go to work on my place, I'm going to enlist the help of a friend who used to be a contractor (but had to stop due to injury-- another employee's fault).
Today it was too crappy to go out due to the rain so I stayed in with the cats.
I also decided to try to help a friend who was the victim of a crime by his ex-girlfriend (and mother of his child). I think I've mentioned the tale here before and how she's on the run from the law. Anyway, she send him pics of herself with their kid with obscene messages to him. She doesn't have custody because she endangered the child in the past and she's nuts. She has a felony warrant and is violating probation. Local cops previously said they couldn't find out who the probation officer was. I called the sheriff's department to ask. They referred me to the DA's office. I talked to a lady at the DA's office to explain the situation. She was alarmed and concerned for the child so she said she would pull the police report from the local town and gave me the number for the probation office and told me exactly what to say to find out who the probation officer was. It was as simple as hitting zero and saying "Who is supervising Brittany Carson?" and they told me right away. They transferred me to his line but I got an answering machine. I'm going to call back tomorrow to see if I can get through to the guy. He hasn't had her check in for over 6 months so he's sucking at his job, but I'm going to be polite and let him know she violated probation.
I do not let people mess with my friends and get away with it.

I went also . They sent me a letter that it was time for a Colonoscopy.
Drive over there to schedule the apt and the Dr says it was a mistake . I still have 3 years before i have to do it .

Not this one apparently. They said he's never in the office on Fridays (I called back today to talk to him). That's his day to drive around making housecalls. But he's supposed to be back Monday.
Took my friend to the hardware store and got the plumbing fittings. I was dry-fitting things to show him what he would need and how it would go together. He knows more about water supply lines than I do but I know more about DWV system so we made a good team.
Spent the day in the ER today. have gout in my left foot again. Got home to find that a relative died in a car wreck today. wife pointed out to me, MIL died on June 26, wife's cousin died on July 26, my cousin's daughter died on August 26

Sorry to hear that Floorist .
That's some heavy hits Rusty. Sorry to hear that. All this year?
yes. and a cousin died 7 months ago, also on the 26th.
One who died today was the worst. She was 26, with a one year old and three year old.
So sad, that's just not fair.
I'm sorry to hear that. :-(
The 26th thing is an odd coincidence.
My friend's bathroom is coming along more.
He temporarily hooked up the shower to test it out. Still needs to put moisture barrier and stuff around and under where it is. Still need to paint the walls and get some more permanent flooring in once gaps and holes are sealed up.
Trying to figure out how to fill up this gap (there's nothing below this spot and it's actually larger than it looks) and what flooring to get. He can't afford anything pricey. I'm wondering if he could just paint it, because the sheet vinyl all seems to be too expensive. Couldn't find any remnants large enough. The room is almost 12'x9'.
But for now he can use the toilet and the shower. The old sink still works and he is trying to figure out how to detach it and cap off the old water supply lines that are leaking. He really likes the new vanity I found online. It's a lot sturdier than I expected for an MDF piece. Not bad for $49.
I've read that people are supposed to set showers in "mud" but I'm trying to remember if that is grout or mortar or something else. Anyone know?
So sad, that's just not fair.
She was an addict as a teen. Cleaned up, went to work full-time, got married and had two kids. Nothing is fair about it. No one knows why she lost control and hit a tree on a country road.
