Downsized some stash...

Ewwwww!!! (((((((KK in BC)))))) What a horrible thing to have happen!! Hoping your week goes uphill from here!!

((gagging)) in sympathy!

On the bright side - from where it started the week can only get better, right?

You are sooooh right! ((((((KK))))))

KK in BC - please email me privately at poo_de_dooat yahoodotcom

I may be able to help you out.

What an awful experience! I hope you can salvage as much as possible.

So sorry you have such a mess. Good luck in the clean up.

Oh no! How awful! What a rotten way to have to spend the day. :(

Oh KK, I'm so sorry! Can't decide which is worse--having to deal with the sewer back-up or losing all those lovely blocks. Sucks either way! Hope today is much, much better.

Make sure you 'rinse' your nose out a least 2 x's a day for the rest of this week. Ear syringe would work if you don't have anything else. Use warm mild salt/water. (email me if you need directions.) I can't use bleach either but when I have to, this is what I do. Keeps me from having a major asthma attack.

So sorry about all the loss and work :(

Dang! No wonder I was using my puffer today so much! I never even associated the bleach with my asthma going haywire. Good idea there! Thanks! ~KK in BC~

Saved what was worth saving, and tossed the rest. Amazing what is worth keeping and not worth keeping when you are put on the spot like that.... most stuff wasnt worth keeping! ~KK in BC~

Well uphill seems to be where the snow must be shovelled? on a pile that turns into a hill LOL My basement floor is sure nice and shiny clean now!
