Why do you have three toilets?

....because at some point, two of them could be out of order!! As the renovation of the master bath continues, there was additional usage of the guest bathroom toilet.  Guess what ended up leaking and causing damage to the ceiling in LL's bathroom?  You guessed it.  Now we're down to just the downstairs toilet.  Tomorrow morning we'll determine if it's a wax ring leak or something else that is causing trouble. Regardless, the ceiling in the bathroom has to be repaired now and painted. Ugh. Fortunately(???) the ceiling hasn't been repaired yet from when the master bath toilet leaked, so that can all be done at one time. LL is NOT happy. Can't help but think if the master bath renovation had moved along more quickly, we wouldn't have had so much use on the guest bathroom toilet and it wouldn't have leaked.....

Sure. if the master bath renovation had moved along more quickly, you wouldn't have had so much use on the guest bathroom toilet and it wouldn't have leaked Today. It would have happened eventually and perhaps at an even more inopportuned time.

Tough to imagine a more inopportune time than when we have a house guest AND another toilet isn't hooked up!

how about if you were trying to sell the place? or if you were in Europe for two weeks?

Normally you might be right Icarus, but since it only leaked when flushed, the only way it could have been worse from a timing perspective is if LL was in the tub below the toilet at the time (yikes!) or if we had even MORE people in the house.
