Pernicious Plumbing Problems

Okay, so maybe pernicious is a little strong, but this week we haven't been haunted by ghosts or goblins, we have been haunted by bad plumbing. Curly and Lou both have had the stomache flu, wreaking havoc on their "pipes" - yuck! I am hoping I am spared. To make matters grosser, our kitchen sink suddenly became plugged at the precise moment I was cleaning up a "flu mess" (if you know what I mean). Anyway, Fisher (my hero MacGuyver) once again saved the day by his persistence. We thought we were doomed for the plumber and even Fisher gave up, but his hours with the drain snake must have paid off because alas - the water flowed freely once more. Needless to say, all the excitement has left us all feeling a bit worn out and Curly has yet to smile today... I am hoping to get a good Halloween picture, but we shall see.

So sad! I hope you're all feeling better now! I just have to comment on some irony. My word verification word for this comment is "retch." Fitting, no?
