You know, things always seem to happen at the MOST inopportune time...
I'd been noticing my water bill getting a bit larger each month, but had no idea why, until about 3 weeks ago when I noticed water coming from underneath my kitchen cabinets in the corner of the wall. Being that I'm broke as a joke, I call upon dear mom for help in getting a plumber to visit. The plumber finally gets here last week, only to notify me after ripping a hole in the wall in my garage (other side of the wall in my kitchen) to tell me I have had a leak there POSSIBLY as long as *10* years....OMFG.
The good news is...the insurance adjuster (who was nice as could be) is going to try to get me a new kitchen out of it, as the bottom cabinets are ruined as well as the linoleum (which we were going to replace anyway)and the bottom 4 feet of wallboard all around. I'll find out in a few weeks when I get a check.
SO, it's been a while since I have spent any length of time visiting with mah buds on CT or Fubar or whatever the hell this site is now...and it looks like I'll be trying to do a lot of the work myself. UGH.
