...if my kids flush ONE MORE THING down the toilet, I'm gonna SCREAM!!!!!!!!!!
I don't know whether to cry because we only have one toilet that doesn't work, or to cry because we don't have two toilets that could potentially be clogged!!! Seriously???
I caught the toothbrush earlier in the week, but they HAD to shove the baby's brush down, too. Really guys? REALLY???? What part of spankings don't you understand? What part of "only poop, pee and a little toilet paper (and throw-up) is allowed in the toilet DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND?!?!?!
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Thought I had it taken care of, and we all get home from church and everybody unloads...and we have another giant mess. I'm talking like bigger than big-foot mess.
Crap.
Crappity, crappity, crap.
Of course nobody will fess up to committing the crime, or even seeing it happen. I maintain I was feeding the baby before bed, and as always, this sort of thing always happens on my watch...so naturally it's my fault.
I've quit worrying about crap hitting the fan around here. I'm more concerned with WHY it's coming back up after I unclogged it the first time this morning. For reals.
***Sorry if you thought life was all roses around here. Clearly life stinks at times. like REALLY stinks. I threw up in the tub it was so bad.***
PROBLEM FIXED!!!!! I have an amazing husband. Ryan found what was clogging the toilet after taking it completely apart and hosing it down outside...a stupid fifty-cent party favor; a flat-disk spin-top thingie. COMPLETELY clogging the toilet, in the middle, where nothing could et to it. SO after $50 in tools and some nasty smells and visuals (thank goodness I got to go visiting teaching!!) and the toilet connected, I CAN USE THE BATHROOM!!!!! And I get to completely clean my kitchen and bathroom again, because you know the toilet dripped all the way to the back door. BARFF!!!!!

On a happier note, Happy Sunday!!! I got the sweetest complement by an atheist in Sacrament Meeting this afternoon (No, really! He comes with his wife, who is a member of our church; Tanner sits by them nearly every week, and they love it!). Apparently I have mad, as in awesome, mothering skills to keep my kids quiet after taking away all the 'intended quiet activities' we made in R.S. Basically I took control by taking it all away and did it well, and graceful, and quietly. Sweet.
That complement alone makes up for the crap I'm dealing with in the bathroom. :)

I'm dying laughing that you threw up in the tub! SOOOO funny....and not. I'm serious though, you guys need to get the bazooka air gun toilet unclogger thing. The one we used in this story: http://www.jaromandelena.com/2008/02/clogged-toilets.html
Sorry for the puking along with everything else you were dealing with. Good luck!! And congrats on the compliment. You deserve it. It is the litle things that help keep us moms going.
LOL, sorry...I'm laughing too. Glad it's you and not me.
You DO have mad-mothering skills. I've seen them!! :)
ugh! been there, done that. except, i was 8 months pregnant. and my mother-in-law came over and saved the day by unclogging the toilet. i will be FOREVER indebted to her, too! i would have puked in the tub, too, but i couldn't stay in the bathroom for so long. it was SO disgusting! here's to hoping we never have to go through that again. once is MORE than enough!
My boys went through the same stage!!! We had toothbrushes, a comb, a baby hair brush, a lid to a that bottle that you get after you have a baby, and who know what else! We had a plumber come look and he said it would cost about $150 for him to fix it! GRRRR...Luckily Anthony just took the toilet off and fished everything out and then out it back!! Good luck!!! I know that its so gross!! I would have been throwing up in the tub too!
oh my gosh! I'm so sorry about the toilet. I guess I have a lot to look forward to~or not look forward to! :) Love you thanks for the laugh!
