Guest guest Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 GirlScout, We didn't have plumbing issues as a whole but we did have a kitchen sink issue. After I was done cleaning the kitchen and doing the dishes if I didn't make the kitchen sink and faucet shine enough or missed one stinkin' water spot I would catch holy h*ll. The kitchen sink and faucet had to be spotless, wiped down dry and shine like new every time I used the kitchen sink. My nada was a cleanfreak overall but she was a b*tch-with-a-checkbook cleanfreak. She would hire people to clean the house and then rage at me when they didn't do things exactly way she wanted.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Hi girlscout, I dream about plumbing all the time. The toilets are either plugged grotesquely or missing all together with only the hole or there are no doors or the tub has no curtain and the water comes out black.I've even had dreams where the toilets are out in the middle of the ocean floating around and the ocean is full of sewage. As far as real life when I was a child I don't remember any problems at my house except as someone else mentioned my mom was fanatical about the bathroom sink had to be shiny and rubbed for 15 minutes. I do however remember going to my cousins house nadas sisters and their bathrooms and kitchens always had weird plumbing issues really severe sometimes there were'nt any useable toilets at all. The tubs backed up and where filthy. Weird. I think some of my dreams are about never having privacy and everything normal being mucked up and sh** on. and never being able to eliminate the crap i did'nt need any more. I don't know it's all very strange Suebee -- In WTOAdultChildren1 , " Girlscout Cowboy " wrote: > > This is a weird question - but one of the books i read said that kids of > bpds dream a lot about plumbing.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Wowee - me too, about the dreams. I often dream about really old malfunctioning plumbing and toilets that suck everything in the room down. I even dreamed about a big bathroom that was old and a mess with a smaller messed up bathroom inside of it. I want to become a psycology researcher and study this stuff. It's fasinating. > > Hi girlscout, > I dream about plumbing all the time.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Wow, I don't know. The little bathroom was nicer than the bigger one but neither was really umm " proper " . The bigger bathroom was actually a laundry room with a cement floor and just happened to have a toilet there. The toilet was really old and had all this plumbing piping going in nonsense patterns all around the wall. It didn't have a normal flusher, it had sort of this handle on the pipes going up the wall. I didn't want it to flush because it was a mess with toilet paper all around it and I figured it would overflow, but somehow I ended up pulling the handle. It sucked all these rolls of tiolet paper and other items into it, it was a massive flush. I think I dreamed it right before I found out about BPD, and right after going NC with the rest of the family at christmas time. Come to think of it, my mom's laundry room looked like that, but it didn't have a bathroom or toilet in it. It must have represented her laundry room. This is a funny but really interesting conversation. I also have had several dreams about trying to catch a plane or get to a meeting and having to fight my way through a massive glam rock concert to get to where I'm going. Anyone?
