This week has been hell. On Monday night, just after dinner, a pipe busted outside but also shot water into our master bedroom so we had to go stay in a hotel for 2 days. Insurance covers everything but its still a pain in the ass. It created problems in our master bath that aren't fixed yet (we're putting in a new shower and toilet, vanity and sink while they're doing all the other work- but that's something that's at our cost because we were doing that anyway) and it wasn't TOO much of a problem that our shower was still inoperable (because they were still working on the leak) until a pipe broke in the front bathroom last night... less than one week from the other pipe breaking!!! It partially flooded the floor of Ryan's closet in her bedroom, but that wasn't too bad because Craig had ripped the carpet out of her bedroom last weekend while we were in Oklahoma (and wasn't going to take it out of Kyra's room, Austin's room and their hallway this weekend so that we could put the wood floors down... so it was really just a matter of sopping up the water, and even that wasn't very much, thankfully. So the FIRST plumber came out and finished my bathroom today and the OTHER plumber will be out tomorrow to fix the other bathroom. The new kitchen appliances SHOULD be put in by the end of the week (we were in the middle of that when this whole mess started!!!!) and I think I'll be happy then. Of course, then we start on the yard.
For now, this is the madness of my life. Gotta run... got a billion places to be today and won't be home til late tonight! ciao
