Teamwork!

Carrie emailed me at work today.

"Guess who fixed the disposal........THIS GIRL!"

Our disposal crapped out on us a week or two ago. It's been on my "to-do" list, but frequently fell from the top spot.

"I did some reading up on our model and found out it has a trip mechanism when it get's lodged. Circuit will trip and turn the system off. I found a hex large enough to get in there and turn the blades manually, cleared the obstruction, reset the trip, ran some water and turned it on. Started working without issue! 
 
Just performed what they recommend as a monthly or so maintenance: 1/4 cup of baking soda (btw, need more baking soda, haha) in a half way full sink of warm water and then remove plunger and run the disposal as the mixture works it's way through. "

My wife is awesome.
