Flash Flooding!!!!


Jordans good friend Adam is coming for a visit and being the wonderful house wife that I am, I was ready this morning to get the house clean and guest ready. I started with the kitchen. After loading the dishwasher I reach under the sink cabinet pour the detergent in, and when I put it back into the cabinet my foot gots splashed with water. Yes we are under a flood warning. One of the pipes attached to one under the sink completely came undone. Some what luckily, I have a large green summer outdoor beverage holder that holds most everything that you would put under your sink (cleaning products, tools that were my Granddads, and so on). The unlucky part you may ask? That green bucket was directly under the broken pipe and the water ruined our powdered cleaning products, ugh.

So I have spent my morning yelling, crying, and almost cursing the stupid pipes. And let me tell you how smelly it was. We really don't know how long it's been broken and how old dirty the dish water is, but I have to say that it isn't fun when your pregnant and just want to get that stuff cleaned up.

Jordan and I not only have Adam coming to stay, but we are also preparing for our trip out to Oklahoma. Do you ever feel like as soon as great exciting stuff is about to happen something has to break and get in the way?

That stinks Kellee. I totally know what you are going through. THis morning I started a load of laundry and went outside to dump the trash and sure enough I noticed puddles of water coming from the garage door. So I go back inside the garage and there are puddles all over the garage floor coming from the washer. Who knows what the deal is? It is not fun dealing with these mishaps especially when we are preganant. Ugh! I hope your leak gets fixed soon. love you and can't wait to see you guys next week.

Oh Kellee! If it isn't one thing it is ALWAYS another! Just try to say to youself - I'm being tested - how will I do? Eric and I put our house on the market and then suddenly everything goes wrong. He find a mouse - Jaxon colors on the furniture - our bathtub drain gets busted. It's always something and there will always be something. Just be glad you're leaving the dreaded pipes and coming to MINE!!!! :) Love ya!!!!
