My house is temporarily off the market

As if I wasn't in a funk from the usual goings on in my life, it has taken a turn for the worse.

I noticed three days ago that there was some water flooding a part of my yard. I checked the hoses and the water valves, both off. It wasn't until I saw water coming in between my wood planks on the floor that I started to panic. I called my home warranty company who dispatched a plumber immediately. His findings: a leak under the house in between the water heater and the sink in my kitchen.

Tomorrow they are coming at 8AM to dig up the side of the house and then Sunday the plumber comes in to fix the leak and reroute the lines so this doesn't happen again. In the interim the 6 month old wood floors we put in are trashed and have to be replaced in the kitchen and dining room.

There is some good news in this. My insurance is paying for everything the warranty service isn't covering minus their deductible. So, needless to say, my home will look like total shit for the next 2 weeks while they fix things and we get the floors redone. Thats two weeks without showing it and two weeks further into the summer without moving.

Is it too early for Vodka???
