You know it is going to be a bad day when your wife gets out of bed only to return a couple of minutes later stating that she should have never gotten out of bed.  While I am half conscious and trying to figure out what she is saying, I hear something to the tune that the garbage disposal fell off the bottom of the sink and the kitchen cabinet has standing water in it.  Ooh yeah, and it stinks....

After coming to the realization that this can't be good for working on the RV today, I went down to scope out what she was talking about and sure enough, the garbage disposal is disconnected from the sink drain AND, not to leave out, IT STINKS!!!!

For us to fix this, it meant a trip to Omaha, shop, and return.  Well as long as we are going to town, Tami exclaims, I want to go grocery shopping.....  GREAT!!!!!

Anyway, $600 later (we never get off cheap when we trek to town), 7 hours of shopping and driving, and we have returned home ready to dive into our plumbing mess.  When we got into our plumbing mess, we found out that the plumber did not cement the drain piping together that is located inside the wall.  Great!!!!  We had to cut out a section of the back wall of the cabinet and sheet rock.  Sure enough, the PVC drain pipe came off in my hands.

Well, when we took the piping apart, the piping was half plugged with what has to be the nastiest smelling gunk I have ever come across.  This makes cleaning the cat litter box smell pretty good.  Anyway, Tami dove in to help and you can see below, how happy she was to do it.  She always tells me that she would rather do home improvement jobs than rivet on the RV.  She didn't admit it, but I think I found a home improvement task in which she would rather work on the plane.

We actually got the drain pipe cemented, the new garbage disposal mounted and working, and as a side benefit, I got the dishwasher working again.  The dishwasher drain was plugged and wouldn't let the dishwasher drain (it was because of the corroded old garbage disposal).

Anyway, Tami was thrilled!!!  Yesterday, she started a "honey do" list for things around the house that needed fixed.  I got a two for one fix today.  And, it DOESN'T STINK ANYMORE!!!!

Like I said, sometimes, you just don't get to build......
