tgd12 - part 2

i'm pausing my company-is-coming cleaning for a very serious and sincere thanks giving. this one goes out to marlana and val (and, in fairness, handy man bill). i went downstairs this morning to move laundry around & found that the sewer had backed up through the floor drain. gross, yes ... but i was more wrapped up in the "seriously? this weekend? when lynn's coming into town?" as val said, it's the timing of life, right? so i called marlana and val. and as quickly as they could, they had handy man bill out here to rout the pipe & pull out a small mass of tree roots. he was in and out in about 20 minutes, and he's a very nice guy. since he left, i've run three loads of laundry, ran water in the shower, cleaned (and therefore, flushed) the toilet, and did a big stack of dishes. so far all is well and the draining water is going where it's supposed to - NOT on my basement floor.

thanks for acting so quickly, ladies. i truly appreciate it.

You are very welcome. I'm glad it was taken care of so quickly. I hope you had a nice weekend with Lynn.
