Clog saga finally ends

The problem with the clog has finally been fixed. After several days of calling the landlords and their resident handyman (the handyman with no luck at all) a plumber was finally called out to deal with our continuing problem of a clog being in the drainpipe where the washer drains into. Basically what wound up happening is, all the piping was taken out, and new piping was put in. This project should have been done years ago, but it took something like this to finally make this solution happen. The pipes were full of yuck, and were corroded on the inside. We now have all new piping in the bathroom, as well as under the sink in the kitchen. Everything works find now, and hopefully it will be fine for years to come. I will be very careful what goes down the drain. We certainly do not need something like this happening again. It all started last week, on a Wednesday, and finally got resolved today. We had to wash out dishes in the bathtub for the past several days and let me tell you from that experience that it is not fun, and shouldn't have to be something to resort to. I have no idea why it took this long to be resolved, but I'm very thankful to the plumber for coming and fixing it.
