Plumbing 101


Why is it that right when you sit down to do something, the urge to go to the bathroom hits? I sat down for the first time today to look up a few things on the internet when all of a sudden I had to go to the bathroom. This was not surprising seeing how I am getting over a kidney infection and the keeps doctor telling me I needed to drink more water. I usually only drink 1 maybe 2 bottles of water a day, mainly because I just don't like it. So with drinking 2 gallons for this past week I have to go ALL THE TIME! Anyways, I go to flush and instead of the water going down and around it starts to rise! I start to panic because 1. I don't know what in the world to do 2. The plunger is no where to be found and 3. I started having flashbacks of a time at Youth Conference when Ashley, Ani and I were all sharing a room at Dixie college in their dorms and our toilet malfunctioned in this same manner. Keep in mind this was the nastiest place I think I have ever stayed Usually I would just call for Andy and have him fix it, but he was at the park playing baseball with our Nephews.... so what do I do you ask? Hop in the car and race to the park to get Andy. I get to the park and am running frantically to find Andy. Who knew hundreds of families went to the park on Friday night? One guy even stopped me and asked if I was ok. I couldn't find him and thought... were they in the backyard and I had no idea?? I start heading back for the car when out of the corner of my eye I see little Ju-Wonie boy. I run to Andy and tell him what is going on and he rolls his eyes and says, "Is it still running?" I reply, "Uh, yeah I don't know what to do!!"

Not to worry, by the time he got here it had stopped, he fixed the toilet and cleaned up the puddle of water. And not to worry we had a Plumbing 101 session for the next time this happens. We also have invested in a new Plumber!!

Christian taught me the art of using a plunger. I'm a master with those things now.

I'm glad you have Andy...
