We Got a Bidet!

I wasn’t planning on it but hubs did not want to be in a position where he couldn’t reach up behind himself after having open heart surgery (they crack the chest and position the upper body in such a manner where reaching behind the body is painful at best). So, he felt a bidet would help. He loves it, I’m not a big fan of the style but I share how we managed a leaky bump in the bidet road, fixed it, and got it installed.

Did I mention I’ve never done any “plumbing” before? 🤣

The rest of my thoughts - including pros & cons - are shared in the video too.
