When?!? When will the madness end!?!?

So, for the last few days the bathroom tub has been draining very slowly. Draino and Liquid Plumber have not had any signficant effect, and the snake that I bought didn't seem to want to get past the first bend in the pipe, but it wasn't hitting clog, it was hitting pipe.

This morning, after my shower, again draining slowly. I got dressed and ran out the door to a client site that I had to be at early this morning. I was almost there when I got a call from Alyse, telling me that there was a lake in the kitchen, as the tub seemed to be draining through a light fixture in the kitchen, rather than through the drain pipe.

So, since the beginning of summer, we've had the furnace replaced, we had a weak spot in the roof and a chimney that needed to be remortared, and now we've got plumbing problems.

I'm starting to really understand why they made the movie "The Money Pit". Twice.
