About eleven o'clock tonight, a water pipe upstairs froze and burst, and water came pouring down from the ceiling in our girls' bedroom. It was "raining" hard in about eight different places. After calling our landlord for help, Jacob and I ran around the house emptying every bin and bucket we could find, trying to find things to contain the water which was quickly covering the girls' floor. We moved most of their things out of their room (even some of the furniture).
Thankfully, the girls were sleeping in the one corner of the room that did not receive a shower. Jacob moved Sofia to the guest room, and Kardelen's sleeping in our room tonight.
Remember our New Year's Eve fiasco? (Well, it was the day before New Year's Eve. Close enough.) Now it seems we have the opposite problem: too much water, all over!
My plans to host my friend Laura this weekend, and have my friend Betty over for lunch tomorrow, are going to change.
At this point I'd still like to host the Femininity Challenge, but if I don't show up, you'll know why.
I'm still not sure whether to laugh or cry about this.
