I don't know what I would have done if it got into my sewing room. That would have been a complete mess!!! I probably would have sat and cried!

Yes, Patti........all 3!

Oh my gosh Terri, i just found your thread, i dont know how i missed it! Good heavens, i'm so glad Courtney was with you to help! And so glad it didnt get your upstairs too, and not too much damage, you relax and take it easy, and take something for those sore muscles!

YOU POOR THING! What a mess. Well, after all the aches are gone and you are rested, you get to say that you have the cleanest floors in town. What a nightmare.

I did go to fix Courtney's toilet and guess what? Wrong size hose I bought. Sooo, back to Home Depot again tomorrow. Oh well...I'll get my money back and get the RIGHT one. Will bring the broken one with me to make sure I have it right.

When it happened to us, we were on a l-o-n-g RV trip. Fortunately, Mom was paying the house bills for us. When she got a $400 water bill --- you know the rest! Same little bittie toilet part.

Fortunately: single story house; I HATED the carpet; insurance co had to pay to ABATE the asbestos tile from the '60s ($14,000 :!: :!: ). We redid floors (this was Tucson) with real Mexican tile floors - I could just hose it out - again - if I want! Oh yeah, my stash was above the water line!

I'm just thankful it went down the stairs and not into the rooms on the 2d floor. I would have been devestated!
So, now we are in the process of putting things back. Actually going to wait until the man gets home. Courtney and I are still sore, so he can do all the moving of things lol

We have been having take-out the past few days because we cannot get to the stove. There is a path to the sink so I can get water for my coffee. Gotta have my priorities! lol
Tomorrow, hubby says when he gets home, we will start putting things back. Good thing, didn't want to get up and move. Laid on recliner and legs tightened up on me. Courtney got me some hot towels, which made my legs feel better. Sure wish I had that tub!!
