toenails and plumbing

same_skyMy husband painted my toenails for me tonight. After the first one, I said, "you know, honey, usually you do this one coat at a time." He told me to shut up, sulkily. Still, when he got to my pinky toenail and used the brush to make a little circular swabbing motion... I'm afraid that I couldn't help but laugh. I have never seen anyone paint a nail that way. He got his revenge by turning on his mp3 player and then leaving the room, so I guess he got the last laugh. My ears.
Because this is exactly the right time for this sort of thing, our plumbing is extremely questionable in the bathroom right now. We can't use the shower, or the sink, as it all backs up into the tub. At least the toilet usage seems to be unrelated! I can deal with hiring a plumber if we need to. If they won't let me go back to work, I'll even be here to let them in when they come. We have two bathrooms, so it's not a catastrophe in any case. What does worry me is that our other bathroom has only a shower. I am really not so sure that my belly and I will both fit with enough margin that I can actually get clean. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I don't grow any more overnight.
I was less slothful today than yesterday, and managed to get some things off my to-do list that didn't require physical activity. M came home and he ran around fixing many of the things that have been driving me crazy and making me whine about how we're not ready yet. He's a good boy, and I really am feeling more calm now. I could use a little more cleaning before we're done, but nothing major. And hey, there's no point in cleaning the sink or shower right now, so there's two fewer things to do so maybe it was all for the best...?
