    Hi all:

    As stated by Chuck... sounds like a clogged toilet.

    First place to start is to use a toilet plunger... the pull is more important than the push... ;)

    If that fails to unclog the toilet you may need to purchase a CLOSET AUGER (see image) at home depot or Lowe's and get someone at the pro. Desk to show you how to use it to unclog the toilet...

    Tool costs about $25.00 and is something every home should have hidden in a closet... somewhere!

    Let us know how you make out... O.K.
