News From TN 3-15

We had a water event in our house that we are dealing with. The feed hose to the toilet in the main bath broke in the middle of the night. About 3:30am we heard an electrical sounding buzz. The buzz was the water hitting the door frame causing a major indoor weather event. The ceilings - soaked, the walls - soaked, water was dammed by the hall carpet (also soaked) and running down the ventilation system. So we went downstairs to another tropical event. A new river running through the basement and out the service door. Drop ceiling was not in the ceiling anymore. heating ducts were raining and insulation soaked. Christmas wrap -soaked, stationary in the draw, a sewing machine, TV and the kids keyboard. WHAT A MESS!!. Well we had the water cleanup people in and everything is pretty dry now. We had to replace all the insulation and ducting at one end of the house. Fortunately it was warm enough where we didn't need a lot of heat. Life is interesting. Now to put everything we had to move back and replace all the stuff that got damaged. --
