Day 65 -- cause and effect?

In the middle of the afternoon, I had another visit from the plumber. There seemed to be no real answer as to why this mess happened again. He was able to get a small backup to occur by filling the lines with tons of water, but could not replicate this event. It seems there may have been a clog that was flushed out with all the water. I'm feeling a little apprehensive with this end point as it means that things could recur and we'd never know how to stop it from being the new normal in my life. That is definitely not something I'm ready to accept.

Again, the lack of control and satisfactory answers of this week has me exhausted. Hopefully the weekend will allow me to get things ready for classes next week and do laundry without any backup in the basement. Perhaps this is karma for my disliking Mondays lately <smile>. 

The selection today deals with this last point. Enjoy!
