Something Stinks

If you smell something bad around our house, its probably our crappy septic system and leech field. Yes once again, our "crap" alarm has been going off since Saturday night. We have not flushed, done dishes, or showered. I am waiting for the Lennar guy to come look at this problem. If you know us, we have had this tank pumped out 6 or 7 times in 5 years, replaced the switch, and had to dig up the frozen pipes last winter. Yes we must be the most unlucky homeowners on this planet. Now Con thinks the punp is totally out, because it doesnt turn on when plugged into a working outlet. Yesterday it was tripping all our outlets, the frige was out, the freezer in the garage was out, then worst of all the tv turned off in the middle of the Bears game. But we figured out it was the pump trying so hard to work, it was tripping our outlets. So here I sit, and stink once again...I just hope this is fixed by Wednesday when our family is in town from Idaho, or we may be using a hose outside, and a bucket!
