It's irrational, I know. But when a drain clogs up, I feel that it's my fault. My fault for somehow not maintaining it better, for not fixing things before they are a problem. House maintenance in my head is a "boy job". Painting, doing wiring, fixing things that are broken, breaking things that aren't, etc. Those are also all the things that I hate doing. Which is stupid for a home owner because you'll make yourself poor really fast if you can't do the little things yourself.
Today I took apart some plumbing and cleared a clog. Yay me. However, I probably created the clog in the first place by putting too much food down the kitchen drain which then backed up the laundry room / sink. Bad news in a house that needs to do as much laundry as we do currently. So I still feel like I failed.
*sigh*
