Flooded


Okay, so it's not that bad but......Yesterday, Justin got a call from our apartment office informing us that the bright individual leasing the apartment above ours had broken one of his ceiling sprinklers. I mean seriously, we have 10 foot ceilings, how do you accidentally break a sprinkler?? Were they sweeping the ceiling, playing ball in the house, or perhaps spider man was visiting?? As a result, water was running down our bedroom wall. He had to move everything out of our bedroom and closet so nothing would get wet. The apartment turned off our electricity so no one would get hurt. We had to stay in a hotel last night and I didn't even get to go home after work. Luckily, my caring husband grabbed all my bathroom necessities and work clothes so I could get ready this morning. We found out today that they have to replace the carpet so we will have to stay in the hotel again tonight. Good news is that it is a free hotel room and we *have* to go out to eat. Bad news is I still don't get to go home and the hotel they choose is about 15 minutes further from the office than our apartment. There is a reason we choose to live a half mile from downtown :)

Hope your Valentine's Day is not flooded like ours! Happy Valentine's Day!

People pay big bucks for indoor waterfalls. You should have seen if they could replace the wall with rock texture for a sweet water feature. Too late now.

If you lived here, there would have been no problem. The water would have evaporated before it fell as far as your apartment. This morning, it took like 15 minutes before enough water fell for me to fill a glass to drink. That's too dry.

We got our house professionaly cleaned for free today because of the nasty black stuff so that was pretty great Valentines present for me.

Maybe Spider-Chile was playing ball, broke something, and then swept it up, all on the ceiling. Sorry about your apartment.
