Well today has been one of those days that I would prefer not to have had. I had a tooth pulled yesterday. So to say I feel real bad. But my water needed to be changed. So after I did my 35 gallon water change. I plugged my main pump in, it didn't come on. So I pugged it in another outlet it came on. So I put it back in the first outlet everything came on okay. Now to plug my skimmer in, it refused to come on. Tryed the other outlet, nothin. Okay call hubby it said to take the end off and put it in a sink full of water, That didn't work. He said the pump doesn't work. After he gets off the phone, I put the pump back together and decide to try one more time. I plug the pump in, nothin. So I decided to put my finger in it and move the impeller a few times. Walla a instant waterfall. Needless to say me and the kitchen was soaked. But the good news is my skimmer is skimming again.

That's hilarious Teeka!
I think that we have all made similar mistakes before whether we want to admit it or not. Glad to hear that your pumps are working again, even if you did have to find out the hard way.
