Indeed; and the fear that the freeze might have broken a pipe, thereby paving the way to thousands and thousands of dollars worth of repairs, was extremely bad. Getting the water back meant no broken pipe. That alone made me dance with glee.

It was good news, even though it also showed us some under-the-sink water damage that will someday have to be repaired. The idiots who gut-rehabbed this place in 1999/2000 hired their idiot cousins to put in the plumbing, and it's a complete disaster area; at some point, something leaked, and a section of the floor has essentially dissolved.

Also, they didn't insulate under the sink, because of the horrible way they put in the plumbing. .

Idiots.

Did I mention they were idiots?

Still, we've discovered it, and are forewarned. Also, we discovered that our garburator is leaking, just enough to rust a section of the mechanicals. Agh. But discovering it is good, and we'll tackle it another day, when we're not exhausted.

Wow - what a lot of verbiage ....

*hugs*

Yeah ... and now I can do a bit of relaxing, and figuring out meal plans for the coming week. Which is my idea of relaxing. Heh.

*hugs back*

It's a relief, and now that I've put the kitchen back together, it's even more of a relief.

Thanks for the hugs, and have some for yourself!

I'm definitely happy - I still have to worry about something I spotted on our under-sink garburator, but I'm taking my victories where I can, and this one is a big one.

I'm happy to have escaped this situation. Not exactly cheaply, of course, but much less expensively than I might have!

Hope your AC is now fixed, and your screen door!
