After my morning vlog, I decided to clean the kitchen.
Bianca left-for a baby shower and I was home alone.
The house was a mess. It needed to be done.
I found cups and plates all over the house and I brought them to the kitchen.
I filled the dishwasher and turned it on.
About 2 minutes later it started to beep.
I noticed that the sink was slowly filling up with water.
mmm...this could only mean one thing.
Clogged pipes..
Shit.
I hate those.
I'm not the handiest of men when it comes to fixing stuff.
It runs in the family.
We seem to produce generation upon generation of men that can't do anything use-full with their hands.
Although I do have my occasional success like with the boiler I cleaned not to long ago.
But fixing anything related to live water or electricity I consider next lvl and dangerous.
I tried my luck anyway.
We do own a plunger and it seemed the most obvious to start with that.
I put it on the hole where the water goes and gave it a 'plunge'.
Water splashed all over me from the little hole at the top of a sink.
Insert curse words
I tried to close the hole with a towel but then couldn't find a comfortable way to 'plunge' with one hand.
I gave it a little think.....and then I got a genius idea.
I decided to grab some duck tape and tape over the hole.
I put the plunger over the hole and this time I got a satisfying 'plunge'.
I plunged a lot of times expecting to solve the problem but nothing happened.
Shit...
I went online and looked for solution.
One solution said to put coffee smuck (from the filter after making coffee) in the sink and force it through the hole.
It would grind the pipes clean.
Why not I thought?
I made coffee that morning so I grabbed the filter and dumped it in the sink.
It dissolved instantly.
I'm not sure what I was expecting...
I waited 15 minutes anyway but nothing happened.
I went back online..
The next solution said I should use fake teeth cleaner tablets.
Now you might wonder where one would get those....but I actually own them.
I use them to clean my anti-snore bracket from time to time.
I went upstairs and grabbed a bunch of tablets.
I threw them in the sink and waited..
But nothing happened.
I was now annoyed and feeling adventurous so I opened the cabinet below the sink.
It was filled to the brim with stuff I didn't recognised
I got it out one by one.
Then I found the holy grail!
HG clogged pipe cleaner!
Hurray!
I opened the bottle and dumped the whole lot in the sink.
I was saved!
Or so I thought..
This was about 4 hours ago.
I just had a check in the kitchen.
The water is still there.....
And it's even worse
The whole sink is now filled with regurgitated food particles, coffee and fake teeth cleaner.
It looks awful.
I'm not sure how I'm going to explain this to the professional I have to call tomorrow.
If the the look I got from Bianca when she came home this evening is anything to go on..
It's going to a be a tough one.
