A wreath for Me (for later, of course)

Yesterday was a rough day.  Not only was it the anniversary of Marko's death, but a few days ago we got a clog in our drain pipe, right before the septic tank... so we haven't been able to use our drains for days.  No flushing, no showers, no dishes, no laundry.  And icky backup downstairs.

 Riky did all he could.
He snaked the main pipe.
He removed the downstairs toilet and snaked from there.
We liquid plumbered (that's a word, right?).
We used heavy duty clog remover.
We did every thing we could think of.

Finally, yesterday morning we called Roto Rooter.

At 8:10am they said that they would be here in 1-2 hours.

The guy finally showed up at 3:00pm.  He was a super nice guy and got right on it.  He snaked the drain from the downstairs toilet and caught the clog within 5 minutes and 30 feet.  Our personal drain snake is only 25 feet long...ugh ~~ there's one of the problems!

So anyway, when we got school done and really couldn't do anything else (because it all takes water!)  I decided to sit down and make myself a wreath.  By the time I was done waiting for the Roto guy, this beauty is what I had created.  I felt accomplished... Even with this sad and pitiful kinda day.

You know how in movies they have all the residents of the insane asylum crafting and playing board games.....

Craft Therapy.  It's a thing.
