Niagra Falls...

So Scout calls me at work at 11:30am on Monday and says the toilet overflowed and there is water on the floor. He knew enough to turn the valve off but he must have turned it the wrong way or something and so I told him I would be right there. I get home and there is an inch of water in the bathroom, half of the living room is sopping wet and my bedroom too. I get Scout to come with me to rent a shampooer and I start using it on the carpets. When I thought it was good enough till I got home I left and told the boys I was going to tell the manager to come by and look at the toilet to see what the problem was. Well I get back to work and the Manager calls me and says I have a Big problem. She calls some carpet cleaning people and they set up fans and a dehumidifier. Thing is they had to move all the furniture out of my room and half of the livingroom furniture. There are three fans in the house and they blow under the carpet making a big bubble in the middle of the three rooms. guess how long this takes. Yep, three days. There is nowhere to sit and they smooshed the changing table behind a bed in the boys room. I have to sleep in their room and the Baby has to sleep in the kitchen. He also can't crawl around the house at all. There is about a two foot square space in the boys room that he can go in otherwise he has to go in the playpen. He was a little upset to say the least. I ended up taking him for a walk around the block and he really enjoyed that. Meanwhile I have this shampooer that cost me 40 bucks to rent and so I call up bath and ask her if she wants to borrow it. She of course does and comes to pick it up. Her daughter drops it back off later that night. Scout clears a spot on the couch and watches a little tv and Ferret falls asleep in hi bed. Ahh, the peaceful sound of THREE HUGE FANS BLOWING ALL NIGHT LONG. I think I can actually hear myself think this morning.
