Handyman

So today after Farm Fest I played handyman. Our drain has been clogged preventing us from doing wash. Since the weekend is when we do most of our laundry this is a problem. The hand snake I have is just not up to the job, so today we rented an electric one. That did the trick. This is an example of needing the right tool. By renting the electric snake I was able to clear the drain for less than it would have cost me to hire a plumber. There are certainly some jobs that require an expert, but this particular one isn’t one of them. It’s just that the plumber already has the right tool and knows when to use it. So I can add one more thing to my seemingly ever growing list of household repairs I have successfully accomplished. :D
