Well, I can understand possibly wanting to wish that moment away, five people and one unworking toilet would be a nightmare for me, I think I would venture out to the local shops with a toilet and hot chocolate haha.
I am a maths person and it took me seeing a line in that book to get it so simply, before that I just thought it was a head thing lol... But too many think the same, time speeds us as we get older. You look way too young to have three kiddlets that old.
I hope that your basement is fixed now or at least you have a working toilet.
That would've been my plan as well, except I was in desperate need of a shower, and didn't want anyone calling a hazmat team in...LOL! Luckily the plumbers showed up not long after my reply, and had things sorted in very short order (at least for now - apparently there needs to be a bigger fix down the road). And we managed to flush a couple of times with reserve water, so - YAY!
And thank you for your kind words, but to be fair, my profile picture is about ten years old (I sooooo don't like taking selfies - LOL). Maybe I should update it in honor of my upcoming 53rd birthday... maybe... 😜
Oh, and I almost forgot - I "stole" a couple of your paragraphs in my latest post (Photos from the first week of July 2018). Thanks again for giving me an "AHA!" moment. 😊
