Day 123: Plumbing


This is the current scene under our kitchen sink. The pipes are all disconnected and my popcorn bowl is catching water. We knew we had a slow-draining sink and most likely a clog and therefore called it in on Friday. Our complex scheduled a worker to come out on Monday. But today things overflowed. The sink filled with water and the pipes behind our washing machine dumped out water.

The kicker is that we weren't even running water. Our neighbors ran their garbage disposal and it was too much for the clog. Unfortunately, the plumbers that the complex uses were already on calls all evening, so they can't come out until tomorrow morning. So, we can only use the downstairs toilet and, on a very limited basis, the sink in the downstair half-bath. Even so, water comes out these pipe under the kitchen sink. Hence the popcorn bowl.
