I hope everyone had a good weekend, mine was ok until about 9:00 p.m. Sunday. We had a leak behind our washing machine so we turned the washing machine on so we could see where the water was coming from, we realized that the pipe that the washer drains into has a clog. My husband was messing around with it and in the process, accidentaly disconnected the drainage hose from the washer right as the full washer began to drain thus causing torential flood waters to flow through my utility area, kitchen and garage where we were keeping all the new sheet rock and tile for our kitchen project. All I can say is thank goodness for our One Sweep rubber broom with squegy (as seen on TV). I just started pushing the water out into the garage, it was a nightmare!

You know how when things are happening to you and you try to will them to stop, and usually by sheer coincidence, they actually do. That is not the experience that i had last night, it was the first time that I actually realized that I did not have ESP, I was so devistated.

FEMA should so get a One Sweep, they could have had the water out of New Orleans way faster.

I need a One Sweep. But then I would still have to actually sweep it across the floor.

I like the One Sweep. That's the move where you kick the guys legs out from under him and then punch his throat, right?

Oh... it's a broom? Umm. Yeah, that's good too.

Sounds like a good tool. How much do they cost?
How is the tile project coming along?
A 'Fellow Blogger I Read,' Poopie at

is just finishing up tiling their kitchen. She gave a lot of pointers.
One pointer was to just leave the old stuff that doesn't want to come off and then apply mastic over it. Be sure to make the mastic level.
If you read her blog and leave a comment, please tell her that "Jim sent me."
Good luck, and stay dry.
