Yesterday when I returned home from picking up Jag at 1, I heard what sounded like water running through a pipe. After frantic investigation, we, (my neighbor and I) determined that it was a valve or pipe (water main) that had broken. We called the city who rushed over to try to turn off the main but when they did so, it didn’t turn all the way off. After further investigation of my pipes inside, we think it’s isolated on the pipe outside of the house. The city is sending guys over to dig down to the valve and I thought they’d get out yesterday afternoon but they didn’t show. It sounds like water is still leaking (it is!) from the valve but again, (knock on wood) it appears to be on the backside of the town home. Before they turned the main off we found a bunch of water spilling out four units down the hill which is a good sign. We”ll know more this morning.
So with no water we ended up in a 2 bedroom condo for the night at the tune of $361. No water, no shower, no bathroom. Hopefully we’ll be back in our place tonight and hopefully when we get home this morning we won’t find out there’s a ton of water under the foundation. Oh yea, both pups needed to be boarded last night too, ugh. What a shit show.
More happened yesterday but that was the main event. I need to run now as Ty needs to be at school early and Lori has clinic. God Bless and pray for our water main!
