What not to do when your sink explodes!
*Think that one measly bottle of Liquid Plumber is going to fix what is clearly a king size clog.
*Attempt to “help” the Liquid Plumber with the plunger. MMM Vile Back splash.
*Ask Hubby to bring home Industrial Strength Drano from work.
*Supervise as Hubby adds Industrial Strength Drano to science project that used to be your kitchen sink.
*Gather the kids and run like hell when the serene “That means it’s working.” bubbling turns into a fog filled cloud of toxic waste.
*Keep said children occupied outside as you test your lung capacity and hold your breath as long as possible while cranking open every window in the house.
*Panic as Hubby asks you to run water in bathroom because that tingling feeling on his arm is beginning to escalate into an uncomfortable burning sensation.
*Get the man some gloves.
*And a bucket.
*Let the hero drain the pipes himself. Take the kids out. One of you must survive to raise the children!
*Come home hours later to find a Coughing Hubby, clogged sink, oh and a cracked pipe.
*Call the bloody plumber like you should have in the first place.

Funny post! Plumbing is a nightmare to try and tackle. Impressed that you take a shot at it. I would be dialing the plumber fast, and I would be afraid if my husband got involved. Glad to visit your lovely blog today đ
