Ugh.

So, I decided to lay down with Aiden to nap this morning and we ended up sleeping 3 hours! Talk about exhausted! Well, Madeline woke us up over the intercom and when I went to get her, I discovered all of the floors in the front part of our house UNDER WATER! The toilet had overflowed. Gross. And from the looks of it, it had been flowing for the entire 3 hours!! We called our insurance and began cleaning. They sent over a water restoration crew to take a look at it has to be gutted. Since it was ‘grey water’, everything’s gotta come out. The really bad part? Our house is hardwood floors on top of a plywood sub floor… that subfloor is soaked. The water ran from the bathroom, across the hallway, thru the kitchen and out the garage. Talk about sucky. It looks like we’ll be hanging out in a hotel for a few days, or longer. All baseboards have to come out. That means that the tile grout will be damaged. The kick boards on the kitchen cabinets are soaked. Great. Can I just say that it’s a mess. Yah, I know it could be a WHOLE lot worse, but this was not in my plans! So, if you are waiting on gallery to open, you may be waiting just a bit longer. I’ll try to get some uploaded quickly before we leave. I’ll update my blog when I back!

    That really sucks! I hope you aren’t stuck in a hotel long.
