Anyone Noah Plumber???

Monday morning as I was just about to walk out the door to go to work, I heard the sound of water running somewhere in our apartment. Much to our surprise, it was raining. Unfortunately the rain was not from the clouds outside, it was from the upstairs neighbors’ toilet overflowing directly into our bathroom. So for most of the morning we stood under our rain cloud catching as much of the brown water in our buckets as possible to prevent more damage then necessary. For some reason the plumber thought it would help to keep flushing the toilet to unclog whatever was causing this problem, but it really only increased the flow of water into our apartment. In the end, we were informed that a piece of carpet had somehow found its way into the drain pipe which had been creating a dam sending all the flushed water back up the toilet and down into our apartment. After a morning like that, I decided to take the rest of the day off and clean up a little. Though it was an excuse for a much needed day off, it is the last thing I would have chosen to do if I didn’t have to go to work.
