The tale of one toilet...

I peed in the shower today.
I DIDN'T HAVE A CHOICE!
We have one toilet.
Just one.
This morning it got clogged...Marine was gone.
Convenient for him =/

I am volunteering at my church's VBS.
I had to be there no later than 9am.
I plunged & plunged & plunged...
To no avail... ugh.
8:45am... I had to leave.
Closed the lid...
Sprayed air freshener.
Closed the door.
Left.

I forgot about the toilet.
The kids were B-A-D today.
Like, wanted to pull my hair out bad.
After VBS I ran my errands.
Got home and had to pee.
Like REALLY bad!

CRAP.
Now there was no water.
But it was N-A-S-T-Y...
I'm sure you can use your imagination.
So I flushed it, hoping against hope.
Nope, of course... filled to the very top...
AGAIN.

So, the sink or shower were my options.
*sigh*

I really could have used one of these...
Too bad for me.
I finally got it to flush normally...
Only took another 45min.

Uh...you did clean the shower after all this, right? ;) I'm glad your toilet is working now; there is nothing worse than using the plunger unsuccessfully for like an hour. So frustrating!

Way to be resourceful! I'm not going to judge you. :)

I have been helping with VBS this week too! Our classes are in the evening so I've been going after work. I think some of my kids had taken rowdy pills yesterday too.

LOL, oh the things they miss when they are away!!! Why does it always seem so convenient that way?!?

I have TOTALLY done that before when I lived in my old apartment with my roommate. We only had one toilet so our only other option was the shower. Ha! I'm glad you resolved it though!
