So many pinterest crafts to do and so little life to do them all. Sigh. I was scrolling through my craft board last night on Pinterest. I am so over my head on that list! I think I need a pintervention at this point. Well speaking of pinterest, I have completely removed the branches from my front yard but there is one little problem with that. I have a huge tree trunk and I refuse to pay to dispose of it, I'm trying to convince my brother in law that if we slice it in half and let it fall where it may we can turn it into a planter but he remains circumspect. I know it's very scrooge of me but I have great difficulty separating from my money for things I find superfluous. Like gym clothes. I buy clothes to specifically sweat in them and not be able to wear them anywhere else. Does anyone else find that a superfluous purchase? Anyway, that is not the point, point is that I really don't want to have to pay for removal of the trunk but I guess I will eventually cave.

Something you do need to pay for - plumbing issues. Monday I caved and finally called the plumber. Oh yeah, my bathtub had a clog; just the tub. I have 2 augurs, I used both but to no avail. I tried the vinegar & baking soda trick that has worked before - nothing. I even tried chemicals, something I don't like and still nothing. I even tried to vacuum it out but nope. The guy came out on Wednesday (good thing I have a second bath) and couldn't remove the item clogging the tub so he pushed it through the main line. Hopefully I no longer have issues with that tub because I hated paying the $95.
I feel your pain...we have way too many issues to fix at our house and it seems we fix one and a new one pops up...the latest nightmare...the kitchen sink dripping. ugh!! Makes me miss apartment living...sorta. PS: I changed my blog address...new one is here in my signature.
ReplyDeleteYup home ownership, not as fun as we're initially told :/
DeleteI will definitely visit your new blog :)
Four women in my house. I know about clogged drains. Fortunately I have never had to push the clog.
ReplyDeleteHome ownership is not for the faint of heart.
Yeah 4 women would do that to your drains :)
DeleteTell me about it, I never realized my Dad had to do so much stuff around the house because my Mom is not the handy type. I take after my Dad :)
