Surprise!

Yes you may be wondering what the surprise is. Well it's not a surprise for my blog readers it was a surprise for me and not a very good one. Let me share.. Yesterday I got ready for work and was walking to get my shoes from the front door and noticed that my carpet was kinda squishy. I thought that was kinda weird so I looked and saw a few tiny wet spots from where I had been so I looked up at the ceiling to see if something was leaking but no. So I continued to go get my shoes and what did I step in? Water!!! Not just a little pool of water but close to a flood(ok not really but it was a lot). I began to look around and see what area of the carpet was wet and where this flood was coming from. Turns out my hall closet was leaking water and then my bathroom/hall closet was also leaking water. Now in between these two closets is my air conditioner and hot water heater. I called the apt people and asked them to send maintenance out. The guy came out and torn out my hall closet's wall(yes he literally tore it out) and all this time he says oh its just the air conditioner and I was thinking hmmm that's weird cause I remember when I stepped in the flood and it was warm. Anyway he goes on and get the wall torn apart and goes oh it the water heater. It busted. Great! Now instead of a flood I have my own hot tub all in the comfort of my own apt. :) lol not really. Anyway he tells me he is going to send the carpet guy out to wet vac it and dry it and then they will put it back down on Monday. Good news is I did not drown in my own flood/hot tub and the bad news is parts of my carpet got soaked. Thankfully it wasn't worse and I'm glad I caught it in time. I can just imagine coming home after a long day at work and walking in to the apt and then splash in the hot water. YUCK! I just hope now that the carpet and the carpet pat dry out and mold doesn't start to grow. ewwww! Well that's all the excitement going on here....later :)
