It's Raining, It's Pouring...

"When it rains, it pours." Literally.

Work up at 4 am this morning to a loud noise and 2 inches of water covering my upstairs. A pipe broke in our bathroom and flooded my house. I found where it was coming from and shut the water off asap, but it was not soon enough. We got most of the water soaked up and had to wait for the disaster crew to show up.

As soon as the got to the house I knew it was much worse than I had thought. We can't stay there for 4 or 5 weeks now and I had to watch as the guys pulled up all the carpet, baseboards and tile that I spent months putting together to get that house as cute as it was. So, now im back in Eagle at my parents feeling like I am in highschool again or something.
SO THANKFUL FOR INSURANCE!

Even though this sucks and I was very upset earlier, I need to look at this in a positive way. We are out of the house for about a month while everything gets fixed, but I also do not have to pay grocieries or bills or rent. I actually can hire my dad for the fixing up of everything that had to be ripped out so he may even make some money off of this. We will get all new carpet and whatever else (even though it was basically new before). And I know this all happened for some reason I am just not sure of it yet. Oh the joys of being a homeowner.

Until then I will just be hanging around my parents enjoying being taken care of a little bit. Do not understand why this had to happen to me but I guess we will just see. I guess it definately could have been worse.
Goodbye for now.
