QVC set me FREE!

I am going to begin this story by explaining my obsession with bathrooms and my OCD. I have a certain way that each bathroom has to be cleaned. There are certain sponges for different areas in the bathroom and it has to be done in a certain order not to recontaminate an area. I get a really good workout when it is time to clean bathrooms because of this process. Now on to the story. A few days ago we had just gotten home from the gym. Upon getting out of the shower I hear someone in the hall bathroom. I come out of my room and find Dillon (age 3) in the doorway to the bathroom pulling his pants up. I look in there and find the plunger hanging out of the toilet. I immediately ask him what he is doing. (Probably not using the best voice tone) I go to clean up and notice that the toilet is indeed clogged. Dillon started to babble something and after 30 seconds or so I realize he had flushed is banana down the toilet, peel and all! (Only 2 bites out of it) When Steve got home that night he asked Dillon who flushed the banana. Dillon know he was in trouble and said with little hesitation, "Braxton did it." Amazing how smart they get. Today, I borrowed a contraption my mom bought off QVC. It builds up air pressure to push out stubborn drains. I am proud to say this thing is well worth the money. It took a couple of times, but we are clean and clear! I think I will have to call QVC next time this is on the air and bear my testimony of the power of this magnificant tool!!

Whoa! A banana, huh? We haven't had that one yet. What will kids think of next--I'm a bit afraid to ask :)

That is impressive - the banana and the tool! Hooray for QVC -I have always loved that your mom loves QVC.

Leave it to DeeAnn to have a tool from QVC! That is so funny. My sister probably wished she had that for Cassidy. When Cass was younger she would always use Julie's bathroom when she went to play and clog it up. Not with a banana though---eewwww!

I am amazed at what kids can do, and even more amazed at how parent can fix them. Kami

Haha!! Thanks for "bearing your testimony" about the product you found of QVC. It must be pretty amazing! Dillon blaming Braxton is hilarious, especially when he knew that Mom knew the truth.
