Paint n Paper

Watch it transform from hell hole to hovel.  It's amazing what a little paint n paper will do... ok and some tiles.

Day 95

Posted 6/14/2020

Day NinetyFive: Still no hockey to get up for at 6am... AND it's Sunday... Why... why... please tell me why my family has the need to be up at this time on a Sunday... didn't they get the memo? Day Of Rest... Fuck if, got up and made breakfast, eggs bacon avocado some fresh squeezed juice. And then Gurgle gurgle gurgle... did I mention the drain clogged up the other day in the garbage disposal? Ya, 2 minute fix with a plunger, didn't seem pertinent to mention at the time. Well it apparently got stuck again on the way out of the house... the gurgling noise it the sound the pipes make when water is no longer exiting the house through the usual method. After breakfast I went down and turned the breaker off for the sump pump... you don't want to have the plumbing all opened up when that kicks on and empties the ground water from the hole into your lap. Sure the water is pretty clean but it's still a hell of a mess. So now that I've take measures to prevent any massive rushes of water into the pipe I was opening in preparation to run the snake down it, I proceed to uncap the stink hole. Been there done that before, seems we should watch what we put down the drain a little more closely... BUT People don't think of that when things are going well... just when things are not. So I start ramming the snake in the hole.. and Flush... OK the wife had one of those not thinking moments even when we were in the middle of the crisis... Thank you I appreciate that all over the floor in my workshop. Long story short, I fixed the blockage... and spent the rest of the day cleaning the floor in the basement.
