Toilets should come with a heimlich button!!


Jim had to take the toilet apart today. This is not our first experience doing this. I'm not sure what the attraction is to putting things in the toilet, but there has been a strong attraction running through our 3 year old lately. We have fished out numerous toys (little men, cars, a transformer bath toys etc...), a couple of toothbrushes, a jump rope, clothing, wash cloths as well as countless soaps (liquid and bars), shaving cream, toothpaste, bug repellant, sunscreen and gobs of toilet paper. This time we found nothing...er...I mean...Jim found nothing. He snaked it several times, had the hose running through the window, took it apart, all except for smashing the darn thing and it still has something clogging it up somewhere inside! Money has been more than tight, practically non existent, so you can imagine my joy at hearing we might have to buy a new toilet! Isaac, with no shame in his voice, announced that he had put "just a couple of sticks" in the toilet. When I asked when he did this he said, "On Thursday I did it" (Can't help but laugh) So we may have a stick stuck in the toilet and that stick may cost us $50-$300 bucks (personally, I just want a toilet that does what it's supposed to do).
Thank God we have two bathrooms. Besides the fact that the cats have taken over the 2nd one, we still have a place "to go". Would it help if we laid hands on the commode and asked God for healing? (I'm being sincere)
On the Pollyanna side of this...if we have to buy a new toilet we can "go" knowing that only Loper buns have sat on it! :o)
