Hi everyone, I hope you are all having a great Thanksgiving!

Well, we finally got moved into our new home, and things didn't go a planned. The day we moved in (Nov 6) we opened the door to show our friends and families before we started unloading the truck we rented, and there was water every where! A pipe in the kitchen broke, we spent that night cleaning up. The next morning the insurance guy came over, and then sent someone in to tear out all the laminate floors my dh had just installed. It was ruined. Then the had to cut huge holes in the walls to get at the pipe to fix it. Then they had to bash out a wall in the living room because the wall was full of water. All of our furniture had to be put in the bed rooms. It was a nightmare. Yesterday the new laminate was installed, but the kitchen walls and the living room walls are still ripped apart. The lino in the kitchen still needs to be ripped out. But at least we can unpack some stuff, and aren't walking around on concrete! Anyways, hopefully it will all be done in a week or so. Anyways, just a quick update, I am hoping to be around more in another week or so!

OUCH. I am sorry that the excitment of moving into your home was ruined by the water leak in your kitchen.
I am glad that things are getting fixed fast. I hope you are settled in soon.
Sorry again for the bad time you have had.
