I love waterfalls---if they are outside!

I love the sound of waterfalls.  I love to watch the water fall from the mountains but, I do not love the sound of water falling from my kitchen ceiling nor do I love to hear the sound of water hitting my wood floor.

  As I left for work this morning, I ran back into my house to grab my yogurt.  As I made the turn into the kitchen, the most amazing waterfall was falling from my ceiling.  I had a huge flood.  My first thought was that of “pretend that you did not see anything and go to work.”  Of course, the responsible me started grabbing buckets and pitchers to catch the falling water.  It was coming out of the seams and out of the light fixtures.

There was water everywhere!!  It was crazy!!  I ran upstairs to figure out where it was coming from—it was coming from the master bathroom AGAIN!! 

Yes, this is NOT the first time this has happened.  I can not believe it happened to us again.  It was crazy!!!

After many panic phone calls and many quick prayers… the phone rang and I hear, “I am standing at your door.”  No, it was not a knight in shining armor, it was the guy in the blue truck.  And it was not there to save the day…BUT…he ended up saving my day!!  Thank goodness for such a person to serve a helpless, panicked, tired, etc…person (ME) !!  Mr. Blue Truck guy…you, TRULY, will be blessed!! 

 

Remember to smile….even when it is difficult to do so!
