On the plus side, now you get to say “my house, my rules.”
No, I really don’t.

I made plans with 2 works friends to meet OUTSIDE of work this Sunday.

I fixed my stupid dishwasher.
It was very satisfying.
Stupid dishwasher.

I support you as a person but I can’t bring myself to upvote this.
WORK PEOPLE?
OUTSIDE?
ON WEEKEND?

I know. It’s crazy. We’re going to get pastries though and talk about non-work stuff! Probably. Who knows! -
@Raeras I can upvote pastries. I hope you and the pastries have fun.

My husband just came in and told me there was a new stoplight going up just outside our neighborhood, which we enthusiastically chattered about for a minute or so (because we need it!).
My 8yo son, sarcastic: “Yay, a new stoplight.”
Me: “This is what happens when you grow up.”

I poured a cup of baking soda down my bathtub drain and now my bathtub drains again.
I have conquered … whatever gunk was slowing it up. Mighty am I.
let it be a challenge to you

My dishwasher was throwing up an error and refusing to drain. I put it up on blocks like one would a car, and disassembled the lower portion to get access to the flood switch. Disabled the switch, drained and rebuilt the filter/pump section, and now it works again.
I know this is only a temporary stop gap, but it feels good to fix something.

FYI: If it ever gets really bad, a drain snake is all of about $25 at Lowe’s and that is much cheaper than calling a plumber. It’s also easy! And very gross.

I had not truly stared into the abyss until I snaked the drain.
Wear gloves, a mask (trust me), and have the trash bin right nearby so you can fling it out the door as soon as possible.

I navigated a very busy downtownish area/parking garage on my lunch break without panicking \o/

@Solstice As someone who has pulled 6 foot monsters outta drains in my house, this is advice people need to take…
