Love it also story of my life! I got the drywall replaced in the basement and found covered up termite damage; when I redid my bathroom my first year in house discovered the floor boards had rotted away from a leaking flange...the only thing holding up the toilet was the Lino on the floor...

Hi, Tess! Would The Therapist by B.A. Paris work for option one? I know the prompt says "first and last initial can be found in plumber" but I just wanted to be sure as she uses BA in place of a "traditional" name.

We live in a house built in 1920 and with that comes a lot of unexpected repairs and surprises. This is the saga of our year so far.
Read two books from 2 different options.
Required: Identify the options.
Option 1. Uh-Oh the pipe broke! We spent January, February and March welcoming the plumber to our house. It felt like he was there on a weekly basis and was fast becoming a fixture around our house. I joked with him that I really thought he was a very nice man but hoped that I wouldn’t see him for a long time.
Read a book with the author’s first and last name initials in the word: PLUMBER.
Option 2. Seriously, now the washer? And wouldn’t you know it, as soon as we got the pipe fixed, the washer broke. By now I’m asking myself what is going on. So we are off to get a new washer. As we were shopping the one thing I noticed was the creakiness of the lids as they were being lifted. That annoyed me and became one of the factors in deciding which one to purchase.
Read a book with one of these creaking sound words found intact in the title/subtitle: groan, screech, squeak, chirr, rasp, scrape, scratch, sound, squeal and creak. ex. The Groaning Board, Grasp: The Science Transforming How We Learn
Option 3. You’ve got to be kidding me! After all this, my husband gets the notion to renovate the kitchen. We are in the midst of this now and won’t have it completed until late July because of how busy the floor installers are. I’ve painted, sanded, drywalled a 2 foot hole I found when removing paneling and been crazy with all the dust and upheaval. I am very pleased with the new décor and new appliances.
Since the kitchen is the first room we’ve tackled, read a fiction book that has a recipe included within the book. State the name of the recipe when you post. This list may help you find a book: Books That Cook (but skip the memoirs; fiction only)
Option 4. Am I crazy? Loving how the kitchen has turned out I can’t stop thinking of what to take on next. Should it be the living room, dining room, opening a staircase up, or making a reading room just for me?
Help me decide which or what kind of room I should do next. In looking for titles that contained the word ROOM I have found some that made me chuckle. Ex: The Zombie Room, The Escape Room and The Burning Room (I certainly hope this isn’t the case.) I’m looking forward to the ones you come up with.
Read a book that has the word ROOM in the title only. The word must match exactly. Subtitles are excluded
