LOL, I know. It actually has seemed like an eternity. But the one concession I had to make with my wife to allow me to go ahead with this build was that I never use my credit card to buy anything. So I had to build it as time and funds allowed.

It was a bit of a feat, but I couldn't reach a few places I really wanted to clean. My wife actually has a video of me trying to get out, but I made her put the camera down and help me, lol. It took me almost 15 min of trying before I got the right leg lift, elbow down, hip sway combo :D

I have enough water now!!!!! But I have to work today, and I'm busy tonight, so not sure it's going to happen today or not :( At the latest, it'll happen tomorrow night
