Good Old Fashioned Manual Labor, Part 2

Click here for Part 1, originally posted back in October of 2009.

That post was about helping out some loved ones, Corrie's cousin Joshua and his wife Elizabeth, with some home construction work, namely setting tile in their would-be laundry nook.

This post is similar in that it involves a laundry nook, only this time it was OURS! Hell yes, we finally became adults! Or at least it feels like it now. We bought brand new editions of a washer and a dryer.

We got the type you can stack if you so chose, and we did, so that's that. Shorter folks might need a ladder for the dials on the dryer.

Unlike October of 2009, though, I didn't need to set any tile. Rather, I needed to make a hole in the wall for the dryers exhaust. But we have no Sawzall...what are two resourceful college grads to do?


Use a drill two dozens times, of course. See me trying avoid the nasty particulate inhalants with the train robber mask.

Here's the finished and installed exhaust pipe:


Oh, yeah...we're legit!
