My "plumber" husband


IMG_1216, originally uploaded by megan bauer.

My SIL, nieces, and mom are in for a visit and wouldn't you know, my sink isn't working! No doubt because a hot wheel, popsicle stick, marker, or some other non degradable item has been pushed down it. Anyway, my "plumber" husband spent a good portion of the day and a significant amount of money at Home Depot before declaring, "Yep, it's broken. You'll have to call a plumber on Monday." Thanks, dear. Love ya!

I spent only $30 on a snake.

I only spent 2 hrs at the most because I had to go apple picking.

Nice try, Eddie. Do you want me to share the whole story???

You don't have to be jealous of your hot and handy husband.

I wish I would have still been there to see this unfold! I can only imagine how it went after witnessing the debacle of putting the crib together!

To all of the jealous ladies out there, I know how to lay and clean pipe. The problem was my snake was not long enough. I am sure Megan will testify that it is long enough.

There’s no harm in trying. Be thankful that your husband tried his best to do the plumbing and I’m sure he learned something from it. Next time, don’t hesitate to call the plumber to fix your plumbing, okay? It’ll save you time, effort, and money as well.

I can relate to you with hot wheels getting pushed down the drain. Haha! My kids get rowdy at times and they pretend that the sink is some kind of obstacle that their hot wheels had to jump over. The result is some cars fall directly to our sink! Luckily, I know some techniques to keep our sink free from clogs.

I am a plumber and have done repairs within our home as well. I’ve seen a lot of weird things down the drain -- from chicken bones to chunks of decaying meat to little toys getting washed away. These are all the things we must go through in order to properly fix a pipeline. It is no simple task and requires precision and proper knowledge. You are very lucky to have a husband who does the hard work for you, but it’s also not a bad idea to call for professional help.
