What a weekend...

Well, I did not get as much sewing done this weekend as I wanted, for reasons good and not so good. The good reason was that my Mom and Dad came up for the weekend for a visit. I really had a good time with my Mom and am always very glad to see her. We did a little shopping (we love to hit TJ Maxx and Tuesday Morning) and a little eating! It was alot of fun and I am glad I am living close enough that we can see each other about once a month.

The not so good reason I didn't get any sewing done is because of a plumbing issue at our hose. Right after my Mom and Dad left today, I started doing laundry, dishes and general house cleaning...as I was in our bathroom, I noticed water was backing up into the shower so I quickly turned everything off. Well, after about $30 worth of unclogging chemicals, a bunch of plunging and a general mess in our downstairs bathrooms, a plumber will be here tomorrow morning. It appears we have a clog between our house and the main line. Luckily, all of the backed up water stayed in the tub/showers and that has drained but we cannot use the showers/toliets/sinks as it quickly backs up when we use any water. So, we are heading to a hotel tonight and am hoping the plumber can quickly resolve it tomorrow. He was going to come out today but a hotel is cheaper than paying holiday rates for a plumber so we are going to wait until tomorrow when the rate is about 1/3 the holiday rate. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that he can do it quickly and with minimal additional mess. I will let you know how it goes!!
