Yesterday I went to WalMart, something I do every Tuesday when I drop Noah off at preschool. Of course, this time I took Noah with me since school was canceled. Kindra stayed home with Amaya and Anna. While I was at Walmart, I picked up two extra space heaters. I had big plans for those heaters! When I got home, I put three space heaters in the garage....hoping to get the temperature out there above freezing so we could turn the water on in the loft. About at hour later, I realized I'd blown the fuse in the garage. So, I brought one heater back inside and left it with two. All day, all night, all day today. This afternoon we turned on the water to the loft, I was in the garage watching in case we sprung any leaks. Thank God I was out there, as soon as Pavan turned on the water, this huge waterfall started coming down...in the storage closet in the garage. I was screaming at Pavan and running downstairs to turn off the water. What a mess!!! This is such a disappointment, on so many different levels. First of all, once again we are left with guests coming tomorrow and no water in the bathroom for them to use. Also, we are left with having to fix the broken pipes in the garage. Only this time they are in an area that will be nearly impossible to access, which means they will have to take apart that closet and the ceiling, if not part of the loft, to fix the problem. And of course, it's yet another reminder of the problems we face with this house...and the fact that we still don't know what to do about them.
Better go, we are headed to Weston for gymnastics in a few minutes.
More later,
Rebecca
PS Anyone need an extra space heater?? HaHa
