drip...drip...drip...

That is the new sound from the downstairs tub. Argh. Guessing the cold water faucet needs some assistance. But that's really annoying b/c there is not currently a way to get to the stem, I'll have to carve a hole. Why must the plumbing torment me so?

Apparently then it will be a weekend o'plumbing -

• check out the cold water faucet
• open the wall for the leaky pipe
• maybe get back up to the skim coating.

Guess I should have found that plumber to date.
