The maintenance men came this morning and took the patch off the wall, only to discover that one of the other valves inside was leaking. (Not nearly as bad as the last time, but still, they didn't want to seal it up like that.) They couldn't get the plumber to come today, so they're supposed to come back with him tomorrow, and once he fixes the new leak they'll start working on the walls. Chances are they won't be able to do it in one day, but I really need to use the kitchen on Friday, so they'll most likely be coming back to finish the work on Monday. Hopefully we won't hit any more snags.

In the meantime I remembered late last night that we were supposed to take everything off the top of the fridge (we keep a small shelf unit up there) so that they could move it away from the wall. So around 2 a.m. I was pulling stuff down from atop the fridge and putting it in bags. We now have all the stuff from the big cabinet and all the stuff from atop the fridge squished together on our kitchen floor. And in the end they wound up not moving the fridge because the new leak needs to be fixed first... (siiiiigh)

*bleah*

I hate remembering those things you have to do right before you go to bed! Or even worse after you have already gone to bed.

I hope it's all just a fading memory soon.

That's it exactly! Not quite over yet (I have to post another update), but there's light on the horizon...

The weather forcast for next week looks good. Maybe you should live in a sukkah where you will be spared from the wrath of water.

If we had a yard, that would be tempting!

Commiserations as appropriate. Have you heard or read "The Gasman Cometh", or just lived it?

Just lived it... (and due to post another update)

So, do you have a journal of your own?
