Okay, it has been a little over 24 house since I got home and Mary said " mom, why is the counter and the floor ALL WET"? I did and immediate panic. Saw water dripping from the kitchen ceiling and ran straight up stairs to find one of the upstairs toilets filled to the top and running over.
Long story short, Chris was out of town for the afternoon, Lauren was having 5 girls spend the night for her 9th Birthday Bash! So I gathered my thoughts, the phone rang and my angel on the other end, Amy, sent her husband over to help out. In the mean time I called one of our builders guys and he called another and in about 10 minutes time I had 3 great guys helping me. I was so grateful!!
So we have had a huge fan running for about 30 hours... the sound is driving me crazy and Noelle said it was also driving her crazy!! But, it is drying out!
We have about 8 places where the drywall tape is sagging, two holes that need repaired and the whole ceiling needs painted!
The new me is trying to relax and I have once again learned that it could have been a whole lot worse.
I hope that everyone is having a great weekend!
We are in such a better place this year than last. One year and one day ago Lauren got a terrible stomach flu the night before her birthday. Mary was two days before that. At midnight Noelle got it, followed by Ethan a couple of hours later and finally Chris got it at the crack of dawn. I was the sole survivor. Lucky me!! Someone needed to be well to care for the sicklings and empty buckets!(ha ha)!
Take care! Love and miss you all or y'all!!!!
