The best laid plans.
Remember I took a break because things were nuts?
Silly, silly me for putting a timeline on "normal".
Sigh.
So, I will get back to regular blogging, as well as bringing back Smell Good Sunday
BUT
In the meantime, my work staff was reduced by half...it just worked out that way. We are scrambling to find new people while trying to train newer staff. My position is on hold in order to help where needed..and it's just a lot at once.
While we were on vacation over the 4th, my parents received a phone call stating a pipe broke in their house and water was pouring from the front, back, and garage doors.
At the time, they were 9 states away!
Not much to be done but to shut off the water, call the insurance, and wait until they can get home.
Reader's Digest:
LOSS:
Pretty much whole downstairs
Master bedroom
All Carpeting
3 bathrooms
GAIN:
All the irreplaceable stuff was out of water's reach!
They have a long road ahead, but the insurance company is really doing well walking them through it.
I will get back on track, please be patient with me!
I am thinking I should bake up some of these yummies and send them to my parents!
