The Plumber Cometh: Or NOT

 



Sunday,3:00 PM........


Sandra takes a shower.....


It's Cold, she lets the hot water run a long time......


As she adds conditioner, she hears a bubbling burbling noise.......


The sound is coming from the commode, leaning out dripping water on the floor, she sees the water in the commode is blooping......

She quickly rinses, steps out and wraps a towel around herself, goes down the hall to tell Bob.... 

Bob has his hand on the flush handle to his commode....... 

We Need a Plumber, she yells as he flushes and says Why............. The answer to his question is answered as the water rises higher and higher.......

He grabs the plunger and plunges madly..........I go check mine and it almost runs over, dirt comes up in the shower......

I call our plumber that has always for years come when called.....

Night Operator says, I am sending your message to the on-call guy, he will call you when he can come.

Reminder to you. Chaos Comes on Week Ends...... they do that because they are closed on weekends. 

7:30 pm Sunday Night.... no call, no show, no plumber in sight. Bob says I am going to bed. I get up call the service and she says, thanks for calling, they will call you first thing in the morning....

I call, the girl on the phone states the girl who does the schedule is running late, it will be an hour before she can call back, but there are no openings, we are booked solid, no room for fit in, my voice starts to break,  I say we are using a PAIL with a BAG, we are 80 and 88, we can't get down and up, we need our commodes... she says she will call you when she gets in.

She calls! she can fit us in between 8:30 and 9:30 Tuesday morning.............

meanwhile we are left with this...... in the garage. Yes, I close the door to use it.... Stop trying to imagine it.... You Can't...... to be continue tomorrow AFTER the Plumber Comes: or NOT


On the light side: Bob went to the YMCA to swim. While using the above Make Do Potty, I realized I was in the semi dark and no one could see me, UNLESS Bob was having a bad day swimming and came home early, used the remote and the truck lights lit up the garage, it was 5:30 AM
