It's a Flood

I am washing up a couple cooking utensils as I am making dinner. The potatoes are boiling away. The hamburger for the shepherds pie is simmering with the onions and garlic. I was going to rinse out the cans of beans and corn before I put them into the recycle bin.
And lo, it's a flood. the water was rising in the sink where I had rinse water running. I thought it was just a local thing because I had rinsed down the potato peels. But no, it was coming up in the other half of the double sink. I still thought it was local to this sink. I went down stairs to check. Wrong again. It was rising in the shower.
I guess I need to have the line from the house to the sewer cleaned again. I had it done about four years ago. The technician told me that with my concrete sewer line that I would likely need to do it every couple years. So, I guess I am about on track for the inevitable.
I'll call Action Drain tomorrow. There is no problem choosing them because of all the companies that clean sewer lines here in Spokane, they are the best. They are not the most expensive or the cheapest. But they truly are the best. And beside that the owners of the company are nice people.
By this time tomorrow I will be able to use my water to my heart's delight.

Saturday

My Saturday is even wilder than last night.
I have to inspect the sewer connection for a church. The members needed to connect the sewer to the public sewer on Saturday because they mostly work during the week and their Worship Service is on Sunday. I volunteered to do the inspection.
I got up at six as usual and made breakfast from leftover hamburger buns. BTW, hamburger buns make the very best french toast in the whole wide world. I am not kidding!
I wrote a blog or two. Drank coffee. Showered, and got dressed.
Getting out of the shower, I noticed the Pastor had called on my work phone. I returned his call to discover they were having difficulty. I tried to understand what was wrong, but instead offered to drive over and check it out in person. It was no big deal, and we resolved it. I even helped put the pipe together. There was a big grassy area, so I threw the Frisbee for Bandit. Soon the connection was made and I left to come home to more left over sausages. Yum.
I wasted the last half of last night's beer. May I have another one today, or am I in trouble for wasting? One of my friends demanded "Go for it!" I drank the whole thing in less than two hours. It did get above ninety degrees today. I really appreciated the beer.
Around four thirty, the people from the church got the last of the pipe installed. I went over and approved the work. Now I get to hang out in the house for the evening. I think I will carve some more stamps and go to bed early. I plan to go out kayaking tomorrow. I will go early to beat the heat.
