For Stamps /and Other Such Things

This is the picture i was telling you about. It just reminded me of your other half.

And, we officially made it 8 years without a child caused (our kid, i guess my niece backed up the toilet about a year ago. That was disaster) disaster. Until now. The picture does not do it justice. This was after i got the water stopped, and it had started draining. My floor is not usually this shiny. There is literally 2 inches of water on the floor. Luckily the slab slants to the north, so the water didn't saturate our new carpet. So the tub is overflowing, and 3 of 5 runs up stairs... "mom! Something HORRIBLE is happening!" At least he got the gravity of the situation. I know the tub had been running for at least 2 hrs. It had been at least that long since 4 of 5 came and asked me if she could take a bath. I said no, and i left and apparently she didn't leave until she started the tub and realized she couldn't get herself in. Or maybe it was because she had only turned the cold water on. I am really quite grateful that it was cold, and she didn't get in. It could have turned out much worse. And, on the plus side... I got my bathroom floor cleaned.

Oh no! So glad it wasn't worse.

And I love that dark tile! Why didn't I think of that?
