I'll try to make a long story short.
Due to a bathtub drain that would not drain, we have been emptying the tub with a bucket after every shower and bath. This has gone on for the past 3 or 4 months. The reason we waited so long is because we thought it was a major problem that would require the pipe to be replaced and we would have to use tax refund money to pay for it. We tried Draino, plunging and a drain snake, but nothing worked. Yesterday we asked our friend Joe (the same guy that has done a lot of work on our house) to see if he could diagnose the problem. After about 45 minutes he found that the problem was some corrosion and a bunch of hair. He used the drain snake and was able to remove the hair.
Now I just have to see if Cari will let me buy anything fun with some of the money that we would have used for the drain. :) In reality we will probably use it to put up a fence and tear down our old garage and put up a small shed.

You know...Perry and I would have used the buckets as well. Glad to hear it wasn't anything too serious (i.e. costly)
