When it rains, it pours

Well the past week has had many ups and downs... more so downs.

We came home one evening to some wet carpet in our basement, to find that our water heater was leaking and we'd need a new one.

Of course it was a Saturday so any repairs would have cost twice as much as during the week. So we cleaned up the mess, put a little bucket under there, and bought a de-humidifer at 11pm on a Friday night.

And the only place open at that hour was Walmart. . . a place Nick and I absolutely can not tolerate. And sure enough our 1 item shopping trip in there was a disaster.

The joys of home ownership sometimes, but I wouldn't trade it for anything. Having a place to call home that is my own is priceless.
