It's not a home until something breaks:)

Well this week, just like last week, has been super busy. By day I've been prepping  for my business trip with marketing call after marketing call then by night, getting all the laundry done so that Daniel won't have to do it while I'm gone. In the midst of all of this, we have had the most random things happen around the house. The first thing was our propane tank. I LOVE our home, however I hate having a propane tank. It keeps our house warm and water hot but Lordy it is not aesthetically pleasing. Anyhow, the gas company came to fill up the 500 gallon tank and everything was fine. Well, the next afternoon when Daniel came home he just happened to look out of the dinning room window to see the 500 gallon tank rolled over on it's side and the gas line pulled out of the ground!!!! 

After realizing that we weren't in danger, we laughed :) The lovely gas company came right out and drove their very large crane truck across the yard and stood it back up.One random event off the list.

Next random event. My husband started his Tuesday morning just like every other morning, with one exception....the large amount of water that had soaked our hall/living room carpet. Flashback to the night before. I had gone to the fridge to grab a water before bed and noticed a lot of water standing on one of the shelves. Thinking that something had just leaked, I wiped it up, told Daniel about the water and went to bed. Flash forward to Tuesday morning. After just a few minutes, he found the culprit. It seems that the water line coming into the fridge had burst, so every time the water came through the pipe, another gallon of water came out. You never want to be woken with the words, "honey, we have a problem". So by 7:30, a.m. that is, we had already discovered we were going to have to purchase a new fridge. After vacuuming up water for like a hour and pulling back carpet AND using large fans to dry the floor we were off to Lowe's. Ahh, Lowes, our third home only to Bi-Lo and my real home:) Did I ever mention that I have the most wonderful husband ever? Well I do:) We walked back to the appliances where he said, "pick what you want". That's like a girls dream. Ok, maybe more so if it were Tiffany's or Coach, but for me I was so excited to pick out my very own fridge. And I couldn't love a refrigerator more:) 

Fridge was installed and TA-DA!! It has 2 ice makers...weird but love. And the handy man's not to shabby either ;) So that was the first 3 days of the week and the last two had plenty more excitement, but that's for the next post! 

With all the craziness in life, the broken water pipes, and busy schedules we try to always find the sunshine in the rainy days. Luckily, I have my best friend to laugh off these crazy, crazy moments:)

With Love,
