Ending 2006

Now I'm feeling a bit like Sara at inthemidstofit, (not knowing how to link, yet) . So all the things in 2006 that have taken place?Hummm? Well the last three months? We had a backed up pipe from a lousey little popscicle stick that left a lot of poo water (and not winnie) on the basement floor that caused a big carpet cleaning bill and pipe repair job. Then a month later the wash machine leaked and soaked under the tile. My husband thought it was a pipe in the wall so a 4 x 4 foot section of wall was removed to discover it wasn't the pipes but the machine hose. (In all this the same basement became soaked and ceiling tiles fell) Then to end off the year, tonight my husband put a load of wash in and on the final cycle I happend to walk by and noticed a flood on the floor . This time the hose came loose on the back of the machine, flooding the floor and the same basement with carpet. Except this time it is definitley an insurance matter, as the computer, printer, and my digital camera went for a swim. Actually it was raining downstairs tonight! Can everyone say, "Happy New Year!" Things can only get better, right?
