OK, sorry, this hasta be a long story. I am a home remodeler with a mechanical engineering, fabricating, welding background. I lived in my house since 78. I put in a new bathroom before we moved in. So, the toilet’s been actin up. So, Saturday I go buy a whole new toilet, wax seal, everything. I take out the old, replace with new. 45 minutes, 1 hour tops. No problems. So, my daughter just turned 15, got a full length, curvy mirror from IKEA from her granny for a b-day present. I dunno if any of you are familiar with IKEA stuff. It’s good stuff, from Norway or Sweeden or someplace like that. Well, the directions have NO words, just abuncha pictures. It took me (just now) 2 hours to hang this 4 piece curvy mirror, longer than replacing a whole toilet. So, :wtf: ---
