Issues....

Just thought you might like to know that as I type there are two plumbers up on our roof (yes it is 10 pm).  Why on the roof you ask?  Well, I just asked the same question and apparently older homes tried to use "the gravity effect" with the pipes or something like that.  We have not been able to shower all day or flush the toilet, fun huh?  It all started last night when E gave the kids a bath and the water never went down and than the dishwasher full of spaghetti dishes backed up into the bath coating all of the bath toys with sauce!  E bought a drain snake and it got stuck in the bathtub, he got it out after work and some roots came up through the pipe (not a good sign).  Although, I was bit relieved because I was being accused of flushing certain things down the toilet (hah!)  I had to drive to Target to use the bathroom just a few minutes ago!  The funniest thing was Taylor yelling out to the neighborhood, in a matter of fact kind of way, that he had to go "poopy" at Kyles's house because our toilet was broken !  I feel like Katie telling a gross bathroom story!

Oy! I know lots of people that are having some kind of home issue right now. We are the proud owners of a new dishwasher ourselves. Best of luck!!!
