How's This For Irony

Hello, my name is Tisha and I'm married to a plumber. This makes me "the plumber's wife". Just as any other profession when you're married to a plumber, most of the plumbing in your own home is sub-par because let's face it after he's been out fixing other people's plumbing problems who wants to bother with their own? Once upon a time when we were newly married, before he owned his own company, I called Brien's boss and had him to send a service repair plumber out to my house to fix a leak. Oh, the joy when hubby arrived to his own home for a service call! :)
Well, this morning, I had one of those "I've gotta blog about this" kind of moments, because let's face it as a working mother of three I get excited about the silliest things. My husband, the plumber...we'll call him "Brien" because, well that's his name...had been in the restroom for quite some time. After his departure of said restroom, I went in and noticed that the toilet was stopped up.

Now most women would have ran screaming from the room, but I am not that kind of woman. All I could do is laugh as I grabbed the plunger knowing my husband, Brien "the plumber" was on his way out the door to unstop other people's toilets but here I was at home unstopping ours! Oh, the irony of it all!

So, instead of getting angry with Brien for using 10 feet of toilet paper, I decided to write this sincere post with the added commentary to BP. If Charmin ultra soft can stop up a toilet, why aren't we trying it to plug the hole of gushing oil in the ocean?! Just a thought.

Good day!

Monday Me Meme - Week 1

This is a brand new meme. All you have to do is give 5 answers to the question that is asked about yourself every Monday. Easy as Pie.
Go over and grab the code, sign Mr Linky and tell Jackie I sent ya. ;)

Here is the first question:
List 5 things that your spouse or significant other does that bugs the heck out of you. If you're single, then list 5 things that your employer, kid, or relative does that drives you crazy!
1. My husband leaves his shoes right in front of the couch where they land after he kicks them off.
2. When I trip over my husband's shoes that he leaves right in front of the couch it bugs the heck out of me.
3. Picking up husband's shoes days later when he's worn every pair in his closet and there are no more there because they are all piled up in front of the couch where he has kicked them off bugs the heck out of me.
4. Cleaning up the mud out of the floor that has loosened from hubby's shoes when they thud on the floor after he kicks them off in front of the couch where they land causing me to trip over them bugs the heck out of me.
5. Oh, and leaving the toilet seat up, that one's annoying too. *grin*
