The Plumbing Circle of Life

I don’t know what part of the continuum we’re on at this moment, but it isn’t a good one. Right now, as I type, the plumber is snaking the drain because the water is backing up into the tub and the toilet. Yes, again. At 10 p.m.

Here’s a video of the tub:

And here’s where the water pours out of the drain pipe, when in fact it should be draining out the other direction. You know. DOWNHILL.

We are so moving.

    That is such a frustrating experience. I closed on our new home this past weekend but the plumbing backed up and water started flowing out of our drains. Guess what? Now we need new carpet. I feel your pain.

    Fortunately, we’re in escrow on a home that seems to have perfectly operational copper plumbing–much better than where we are now, definitely! Sorry to hear about your plumbing and carpet woes. That’s no fun at all.

    My husband’s comment: “Oh, that’s not good.” That’s the theme here.

    However, makes me feel better about my current sitch 🙂
