Plumbing Update...

For those of you that care, our plumbing is flowing once again! The plumber made his routine visit yesterday afternoon, and must have done something right with that plumbing snake, because all is well now on the Peterson front. I am super happy that option one worked!

But, we did find out through his many recent visits that our house is plumbed really weird. So the chances of future plumbing problems are good.... (we have also learned, though our little remodel jobs, that the people that did the original electrical throughout the house were crazy too!) So now we have funny electrical AND plumbing!! Great.

My dad has helped a lot on the electrical issues, by rewiring certain switches to different fuses, and such. And hopefully Billy, the plumber, got enough junk out of our pipes that we will not need him to come back in the near future!

All is well that flows well......

Yea for that! It's so nice when things just work!
We are kinda in the same situation. The people who built this house must have done a lot of their own wiring and plumbing. It's all crazy! The washer and bathtub are on the same line, and they empty into the side yard. It's really hard to keep that pipe cleaned out because it's open on the end. So the washer backs up into the bathtub. You can't take a shower and wash clothes at the same time. And some of the wiring is actually illegal, we found out. I just hope our house doesn't go up in flames from it one of these days. :)
