Why is it that things always break at the most inopportune time? Take for instance, about a month ago, my entire family came to see me, so I had about 6 extra people staying in my home, then i live in a 3-family room house, so there was plenty of room for all of us, then the two of us had my 2 nieces here plus they slept on a queen-size blow-up bed.
- They had never slept on a blow-up bed before, plus they enjoyed every fourth of it, and anyway, while my family was here, the two of us had a bit of a hiccup.
The toilet in the ½ bathroom on the bottom floor decided to break. The flapper broke off from the chain, so the water inside the tank kept running. Thankfully, my dad was able to provide a temporary repair until I could get a hold of a plumber; My dad provided to repair it, although I insisted on just hiring the plumber to do the work. The last thing I wanted my dad to do was to repair my broken toilet while he was on getaway. Anyway, I was able to contact a plumbing repair the same day the flapper broke plus by 12:00 p.m. that day, the plumber was at my house. And in less than an fourth, the flapper was fixed. I paid the plumber plus provided him a tip – it was money well spent to avoid further aggravation, happy to report the broken flapper was the only thing that went wrong that week, plus my family had a unbelievable time while they were here.
