Magic Mommy!

At least Erica thinks so. First time she's ever walked in the backyard and what does Mommy pull out? Bubbles!  Yep: take one 15 month old, add fresh air and some bubbles and you have one happy kid.  Quite a sweet moment. Made me think of spring, it the time for all the mommies to parade their little ones about, to get their little legs a walking. 

Plumber went... well... okay I guess. I always feel like I am being bent over when I call a tradesperson. Not that I think they are doing me wrong, but beccause I am so clueless when it comes to anything handy, I just would never know otherwise.  So: we had a leak in the valve to the toilet (we already knew about that). But to auger (is that the word) the toilet cost... (wait for it) almost $150! Just for that!  I mean we were desperate: we had already tried everything we could, what else could we do. It's just one of those things.  Then again, Iin my work, I always tell people to hire consultants, people who know the business. I suppose I am just hiring an expert to do something I can't. At the end of the unclogging, Victor (nice guy BTW: expecting a baby in August: ya I'm that person who talks to strangers while they try to work) offers the standard home inspection. Basically he goes around and looks at everything. I say :nah, don't worry about it.  (I think we know where this is going)

So last night: the shower doesn't work. I mean NOTHING is coming out. Doesn't even sound like the valve is even on. I call, Victor comes by. There is a problem with the shower head. He says that whenever they do "stuff" with the plumbing, it can just sort of push mung around. We had a bunch of rust in the showerhead. He knocked it out, but it back on: no charge. Thank goodness.  For him.

That is that. I am trying to get through some Losy Odyssey. It's a great game. I got the cheat book, so I am a happy girl.

TTYL!
