It started out to be a peaceful Sunday. Dh and Ds watched a football game on TV. I was doing our weekly laundry. The day had been a good one. At about 5pm we decided to have asian food for dinner and to go out to eat instead of doing carry out.


I usually shut the washing machine off when we leave but this time I forgot. We were gone maybe a little over an hour. When I opened the back door the washer was filling with water and I was standing in water on the floor. I shut off the washer and then noticed that the water was in my hallway and all the into the kitchen and the den and dining room. Oh my hardwood floors!! We immediately began getting the water cleaned up but seems there is some damage to my hardwood floors and the carpeting in the doorways to the bedroom is all wet. So now we are waiting for the insurance company to come and help get our carpets dried.


Dh found the problem with the washer seems it got stuck when it was filling with water for the rinse cycle and just continued to run water until our house was flooded. He fixed the washer now we need someone to fix our floors.
