    ALL of a sudden I have a busted water pipe under my counter.So I have to take everything out, throw out all of the soaked stuff, call my hubby, find the leak, blaa blaa blaa. We are supposed to leave in two hours, I still have to go grocery shopping and now I can't run the dishwasher because there's a broken water pipe.
    AAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    My floor still squeaks in one spot because it got into the subflooring. When we remodel the kitchen we are going to do all new flooring/subflooring.

    It may seem like a pain now, but be happy it happened BEFORE you left and not during your whole vacation! It is NOT a mess you want to have to come home to!!

    Hope it all works out for you.

    Hugs!!

    I'm hoping for a quick resolution for you so you can get on your way to the Happiest Place on Earth.

    We are now in our hotel and resting up for tomorrow our first day at DL.
    Hugs to all,
    Love Cheshire Cat and Mad Hatter
