Oh the surprises of life!

The last month has been full of unplanned construction ... all because I opened my laundry room blind one day at the end of January, saw water dripping and sagging dry wall at the top of the window. That led to insurance calls and a restoration company coming to my house. They explored further and discovered that the roof had been built wrong and water had been finding its way into the outside wall of my laundry room and leaking for quite a while. As a result it was a mess. The dry wall, wood under the siding, floor and roof had to be removed, rebuilt and replaced with all new stuff. So my washer and drier were sitting in my dining room for 3 weeks while they built me a new laundry room. They finished it last Saturday, and it is a joy to wash again and not have construction workers at my house most days! Even though it was pretty disruptive for the month, I do feel grateful to have found the leak and a good restoration company, and to have it all fixed! Oh the surprises of life!!!
