Last week, Sunday to be exact. Jack decided that he would flush a Danimals yogurt drink cup down the toilet. Why? I guess because he could. He wouldn't really give me an answer. We tried plunging, although I knew that most likely wouldn't do the job. The next day Byron left for a business trip and wouldn't return until Thursday.
I decided that I would go to Lowe's and purchase an auger(snake) and see if I could get it unclogged that way. No such luck. I refused to call a plumber and pay at least $150 to fix it. The kids were banned from the powder room, and we awaited Byron's return. Good thing we have 3 more toilets in the house.
Thursday came and not too long after Byron came home, he and Jack set about to remove the toilet and retrieve the plastic cup. I made certain Jack helped so he would see how unpleasant the job he created was, hoping he would think long and hard before he considered such things for entertainment again!

Yuck! This is the stuff nobody tells you about when you sign up for this job! I'm glad you didn't have to call a plumber. I love the picture of Jack "prepared" for the smell!
