We have been enjoying a thing we have missed in our house for a week. SILENCE! Our house flooded when a pipe burst inside our wall. They sent in the "restoration" team. I think that term is a joke because now my house looks worse. Anyway. They came in and hooked these contraptions up all over the downstairs. Each one of these squares comes with a huge fan and an even larger dehumidifier. We could not even hear each other speak. Very frustrating and even harder to sleep through. I am sure all of the moms out there will appreciate my next comment. You know when you turn on your vaccumm cleaner and it automatically "gives" the kids the go ahead to make as much noise as possible? Well, welcome to my nightmare. There are a few things this experience has made me appreciate, 1-running water 2-toilets that flush 3- quiet 4-wonderful neighbors 5-my sanity.
The next step confuses me. They put all of these machines in the house to get the water out. Now the next step is to rip it all out. Why not just skip step one ? Very sad that my wood floor is warped and peeling. sigh. But again, I have quiet.
