Here we go again…

So, I have been spending the week over at Missus’ house since the kids are gone to the “other” parents.  Last night, she had a thing to do and I went into the closet to get the ladder because I had to put some paint up in the attic.  I put my foot on the floor and it seemed moist.  Let me say here that her water heater is located in the closet under the stairs where the ladder is stored.  I think you see where this is going.  Upon further investigation, I deduced one of the valves is leaking and the whole closet is wet with the excess leaking to the crawl space UNDER the house.  So, at 8:30 this morning, she and I tread up to Lowe’s and buy a water heater.  At the time of this post, the installers have not yet arrived.  But I’ll tell you — they had better or Hurricane Missus will be blowing through Marietta!

Thankfully, I was able to get the day off too and spend time with her.  And at this point, I am going to say “Give this lady a break!”  In the past year, she has had the air conditioner AND furnace go out, paint foul-ups (Tip of the day:  DO NOT USE Jose’s Painting!), plumbing issues with the toliet, leaky water heater, leaky roof, and fried appliances.  What the hell else can happen to this poor woman?  I mean c’mon!  We just want to get the hell out of this city and live somewhere else.

The days are counting down….
