What I am doing today

Something crafty?

Negative.

Sewing?

Negative.

Off on an adventure?

Negative.

Cooking or baking?

Negative. (as a matter of fact I don't think I will be able to eat for a year.)

Today as I was getting ready to head in to a meeting at work I noted something backed up in our shower. (I won't go in to many more details.) I plunged all the drains, called James frantically, he bought a snake and then we tried our luck again. I have a network of old towels all over the basement, and as I type my new-favorite-person-in-the-world, (that would be Joe the plumber) is cutting tree roots out of our lines. Big, huge massive tree roots! I did not know they could be so big inside a pipe! I missed my meetings, and I am supposed to have a babysitter and head for dinner and Wicked in a few short hours. My basement is torn apart, including a new hole in the wall. I can't really do anything here because the house is all a mess, and I have no water. I am trying to keep Aidan corralled, but I don't want to leave the house because I still look like I just rolled out of bed. And even though I am so behind and have another big show this weekend, I don't want to sew because I think I smell like poo.

Good times.

Well, at least I have another opportunity to put my yummy new cleaning product to use!

p.s. In case that wasn't enough of a problem already.... I forgot that I had unhooked the drain from the laundry to try the snake down the laundry drain, and so I put the first load of towels in the wash and went upstairs to clean that bathroom, and came downstairs to water. Everywhere. The bathroom, laundry area, our bedroom, entryway, Everywhere.
