Today's drama:
So there I was, early this morning, in my jammies and checking my email and reading the news. I knew the plumber was in the apartment next door because of the noise. The noise got louder and LOUDER, until finally I got up and looked into my bathroom, which abuts the neighbor's bathroom. The plumber's snake had made it over to my side and had drilled a sizable hole right through the drain from my bathroom sink. Oy! In the process it had pushed open the cabinet doors and pushed out all the stuff I had stored under the sink, ie, toilet paper (I'd just purchased a large package), cleaning products, paper towels, etc onto the floor. Everything was covered with dirt and grit from the drain.
I'm just glad I was home when this happened and was able to grab the plumber RIGHT NOW. I'd hate to come home to this mess and then have to wait several days until he fit me in.
He has now replaced the drain pipe and I have now cleaned up HIS mess. The manager bought me a fresh package of toilet paper to make up for the inconvenience.
I was reminded of DR Elmore's bathroom ceiling fiasco and was thankful this was over in just a few hours.
