Home (Repair) for the Holidays

It appears that someone got too exuberant during Independence Day this past weekend and smashed my mother's mailbox  like a grapefruit that has been run over by a car.  So, it was a quick trip to the hardware store to buy a replacement and mount it on the existing post.  It was a simple enough repair job for me to handle, but I would've been doomed if I had had to excavate the old post and mix some concrete to mount a new one.

What's really strange is that, from what I could tell by standing by the mailbox and looking both ways along the street, no one else's mailbox was touched.

Oh, and since I had the tools up from the basement, I also finally replaced the broken knobs on the utility room sink, which I had been too lazy to do for...  Well, let's just say that I've been lazy.
