Our Homecoming Present




Desi and I returned home Monday afternoon to find our entire kitchen ceiling on the floor, all appliances toasted, and all the wood flooring buckled. Apparently on Tuesday our hot water pipe in the attic split open, disgorging gallon after gallon of water into the 2" thick plaster ceiling in our 1943 home. The water damage ruined the wood floors, and the plaster took out the 8" Mexican tiles in the kitchen, the countertop, the cabinets, and the appliances. Sweet. I have spent each day since under the house replacing all the copper pipes and fitures, water heater, etc. Insurnce apparently doesn't cover replacing the plumbing. Good thing I'm a plumber! If I don't get back to you all right away, you will know why. Sorry for any delay in response...
