Some Jobs Just Have To Be Done.......
While much of America was watching the Super Bowl last night I was wrestling with an unplugable Toto toilet....that was mysteriously plugged. Not totally - but periodically. Like every second person who used it had a serious overflow issue. The good news was that the pattern was consistent enough to demonstrate that there was something acting like a 'valve' rather than a 'plug' so before tearing the dratted thing off it's bolts and snaking the pipe I stuck my hand in and recovered a plastic princess teacup. All in all a good answer to the dilemma - and another successful plumbing job completed without professional assistance. High five (once I wash my hands) to all you mamas who simply do what has to be done today!

Wild applause from Canada! "It's a dirty job, but somebody...." :)
Dorothy, I thought of you when I ripped apart my treadmill to figure out what was wrong. And after several days, one call to the help desk, several good hard looks at the electrical map, I fixed it with two of my daughter's hair rubber bands. I thought of you and smiled. And did a little happy dance with my helper 1 and helper 2 who stuck it out with me and handed me tools.
