Last night we went to a friend's house for a little birthday get-together. We walked home and stopped by the corner grocery store for milk and eggs. When we got home, I opened the door and heard water running and saw a little puddle by the front door. At first we figured that the housekeeper-guy who was here when we left must have left something running. Well, that little puddle led to a bigger puddle in the hall. About 75% of our flat was under an inch of water! A hose connected to the potty had burst and was spraying water all over the bathroom.
We called a good friend of ours, and he came and helped us mop it all up. Our flat has tile floors, so we just pushed the water with squeegees toward a drain in the bathroom. After about an hour, the water was mostly gone. As far as we can tell, the only real casualty was the electronic scale in the bathroom (and who really wants one of those, anyway?). Everything else seems to have dried out. Our friend said that in the summer time here, we could probably just open a door and all the water would have evaporated in an hour or two!
This is just wonderful! We love seeing you! The pictures were a big "hit" Sat. night. I put them on the bulletin board so everyone could see! Lee Anna is growing into a little girl (she'll always be "everybody's grandbaby"). I loved seeing your house, especially the bathroom! You already have it looking very comfortable and homey. We love all 3 1/2 of you!!!
