That when my husband said, "Oh, I fixed the toilet"

he meant: I replaced the cracked white vinyl seat with a pretty new mauve vinyl seat.

He did not mean:

You know that thing that results in the toilet overflowing like Old Faithful on Steroids if you insist on abnormal behavior like flushing? I took care of that.

So sorry!

my DH may be from a mutated branch of the family, but I smell the same DNA in there somewhere CB! Laughing out loud

Apparently he's from a very large family: many women I know are married to his brothers! *grin*
