i love a good horse trough

Fifth month of pregnancy.All I want is to take a nice warm bath, but we don't have a bathtub. The solution, it seems, is really simple. After some quick trips to Del's Farm Supply and Home Depot, an hour of tinkering, and $150, I now have a custom-built, 100-gallon, outdoor bathtub.

Ton Ton is a genius. He split the hot hot water hose from the washing machine a threaded a garden hose through a crack in the concrete wall. He laid cement tiles in a dirt patch next to the porch and set up a Rubbermaid horse trough, which actually keeps the water well heated.

I'm in Heaven! Love ya, Ton Ton.
