Woooo

After many hours of digging, and more digging, root cutting, digging, sweating and digging.
The pipe leak (galvanised steel) was found, the bad part cut out, and a compression sleeve patch was installed.
Water pressure was turned back on and no leaks. So Wooooo!!!
Total investment 7.46$ for parts
One hack saw blade. 1.29$ I already had a extra one though.
4 pack red bull 6.99 mmmmmhhhh..

It is not a permenent fix though. The pipe is old from the early 60s. It is just old and needs to be totally replaced.

Anyway no more leaks as of right now.
No spending 1800$ I dont have.

My higher power takes good care of me. I just have a hard time trusting sometimes.

THANKS!!!! to all of you that offered help. It really means alot to me to have you offer.

Well check this crap out.
The water inlet leak is still fixed.
NOW THE STUPID DRAIN LINE IS BLOCKED BY TREE ROOTS!!!!!!!

I have this overwhelming desire to stuff 4 sticks of dynamite in the clean out plug, hook the detonators up to to a two hour timer and ride to Tennesee.

I have spent the last hour trying to fix that, and clean up the mess in the bathroom.
I have guests coming over for dinner, and you cant use the toliets in the house, wash laundry, dishes, or take a shower.

I realy really really really wanna blow something up, or shoot it repeatedly.

Arrrrrggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I tried banging my head against the wall but that didnt help either.

Mike is supposed to come by today with his magic plubing snake of doom with the crazy cutter heads. So we shall see.
Its that or I pour gas in the cleanout and blow the damned thing up.
