Water, water, water everywhere!!!!



We had an awful tragedy at our house last night. Our washing machine which has been broken was finally “fixed” yesterday and I put in my first load last night. I put in the load of laundry then decided to ride my exercise bike which was in the room next to the laundry room for 30 minutes. When I got off I was sloshing in inch thick water in the carpet. The kitchen and laundry room were 2 inches high with water. It was awful! You know there are always two sides to every story. Also, I believe that a spoonful of Sugar helps the Medicine go down. So here it is the sugar and medicine.

Medicine:
Our house was flooded.
Sugar: It wasn’t TOILET water. Yuk.

Medicine: It happened at night, 9:45pm.
Sugar: It happened before Lowe’s closed.

Medicine:
Water all over the Kitchen, Laundry Room, Family Room and Office.
Sugar: I got the new “Wet/Dry ShopVac” I’ve always wanted.

Medicine: It was a 5 man clean-up job.
Sugar: Molly & Scott were there to help with the clean-up.

Medicine: The SEARS Kenmore Brand Washer is the reason for the flood.
Sugar: The washer is under warranty and SEARS said they will make it all better.

Medicine: The washer will be out of commission a couple more days.
Sugar: The dryer works fine.

Medicine: Both Brenda and I received & ignored promptings that we should check on the washer.
Sugar: We both received promptings.

Poor Baby! That was the most heart renching story and I tried desperately to give to the flood fund, but I don't think it worked. Good luck with the aftermath!

Thanks to Emily Matson and Andy for your generous donations. Every penny counts. And I believe in Karma.

To the rest of you guys...thanks for all the help over the years.
