Toilet Trouble

The day after the smorgasbord I plugged the toilet.  I have done that before many times in Ottawa and in Florida.  I found on the internet a great way to unblock a toilet.  You fill up a large pot of hot water and some dish detergent.  Then you quickly pour the contents in the toilet.  It usually works the first time.

However, this was a whole different level of blocked toilet.  We had used about 8 pots of hot water and it was still plugged.  Barb even tried plunging it.  That didn’t help either.  We thought we might have to get a plumber in to use a snake or something.

That evening I left the toilet plugged and went to the ballgame at the college.

When I got home, I found that Barb had been able to unplug the toilet using more hot water and more plunging.

Barb wears a nighty with a red hat lady holding a plunger on it.  It seemed very appropriate that night.  Also the toilet trouble is probably another reason not to go back to the smorgasbord.
