Today was “team prep” day. We have a team coming in next week, and we had to clean and get the house ready for them. Of course, this means that we had to fix all of the “little” problems around the house as well…
Well, two of our “little” problems included fixing the electricity (we haven’t had power in almost 3 days), and fixing the toilets in the girls’ bathrooms. We knew the electricity would take some effort, but we assumed the toilets would be an easy fix… oh, assumptions….
I will spare you the nasty, disgusting details, but will say that fixing the plumbing involved 2 of our staff members elbow deep in sewage, reaching into pipes coming from the bathrooms. It was several hours of a crappy fiasco, which they referred to as an “M.B.” or major blockage. Hahaha No worries, though, we video-documented the whole thing and have been referring to it as “Dirty Jobs, Jos, Nigeria Edition”.
Anyway, praise God that we now have both electricity and toilets that work.
