Life slaps you upside the head and gives you a reality check! The plumber just left after replacing the plumbing under both bathroom sinks and giving me another good reaming. Thursday is payday, and I was hoping to sock away a substantial portion of this paycheck into savings, but it's gone to the plumber instead. I was on the verge of attempting to do the work myself, but everything I've touched lately seems to turn to brown stuff floating in the toilet, so I decided to call the plumber and let the experts take care of it. No doubt--even though I'm boo-hooing about the cost--the wisest decision I've made all week.
