I actually laid some a few weeks ago in a room off a swimming pool
And I actually dropped my recessers down the shower waste My hand would not fit down the hole but I managed to get them out with a straight edge
Also painter told me he used an oil based paint on the shower walls to seal them. Big flooring boss told him to use oil based paint

I'm no a fan of it yet. Edges/locking joints are a bit on the soft side. Only doing three baths with the product, I've seen dented or distorted joints or corners each time. They brag about it being waterproof, but like all laminates, if water gets under it, it has to come up. Because the joints are soft, I don't see them being able to recover from a re-lay.
The jury is still out for me on this product. Then of course .....I still want fully glued laminates, Brigantine, burlap backed carpet and rotary dial phones to come back too. :D
 
I installed my new power supply unit in the confuzer. With the 3 small case fans disconnected I can't even hear the power supply fan running. It doesn't make the computer any faster, but it replaced the original unit that died a couple weeks ago. It came with extra cables that I don't need for now, but at least I was able to connect everything back up.
 
My rottweiler is feeling better. The new tumors shrunk a bit and she was all excited about the cooler weather today. She's outside playing with the other dogs.

Unfortunately, one of my cats was just diagnosed with Leukemia. I don't have to give him daily meds, but I need to bring him in for weekly exams and shots. Poor baby is not feeling well today at all. The vet said "It's not a death sentence" and that so long as we take good care of him he should start to feel better.
 
My brother just paid $6,000.00 to have his Dogs teeth fixed . He has other issues . He pays through the nose for meds .
 
I'm trying to catch up. I turned 40 last week. Had a kidney stone on my birthday and had to spend a lot of time taking care of the sick cat. He hasn't gotten any better and now he's mad at me because I force-fed him Pedialyte. The vet taught my brother how to do a subcutaneous fluid thing for the cat. He hated it and thus far it doesn't seem to have helped. We will have to try again later.

Last night one of my other dogs who has hypothyroid managed to get into the kitchen. When I was trying to shoo her out, she got weak and slumped down. I went to administer her meds and all of a sudden she just flopped on her side. One of her back legs kicked in a pumping motion as she peed-- it seemed like the leg was pumping it out almost. She was unresponsive for several minutes and we thought she was going to die. I had my brother get some Pedialyte and a syringe and I put it in her mouth. She sat up within seconds and then I spent the next several minutes force-feeding her Pedialyte and then crammed her medicine down her throat. Fifteen minutes later she was wagging her tail. Today it's like it never happened and she seems fine. Vet thinks it could have been her heart, but isn't sure.

One of my cats decided to be nice to me by bringing me a gift in bed-- a live female cardinal. He slept in my room and only went out briefly to go get the bird and was all proud of himself when he brought her to me. Climbed right on me and let her go. She was terrified but holding very still. I wrapped her in a cardigan and let her go outside. She flew away. Then I went back to bed and curled up with the cat for a few hours.

I haven't been getting much sleep with the medicine schedule for my pets.
