It Erupted and went whizzing past my head.

I had my fair share of water today.

My day started good,

I woke at 9 pm and I could smell fresh perked coffee.

My phone rang and my sister in law was coming over about ten,

great just enough time for me to straighten things a bit.

I had my coffee which was the last in the pot.

I always enjoy my morning coffee,

then I went to put on a new pot so it would be ready when SIL

came to visit.,

and that is when my plans for the day blew up so to speak.

I turned the cold tap, I turned the hot tap and I felt it sllip as I turned it.

And there she blew, the hot water tap blew off hit my cupboards,

the tap fell somewhere and water shot out of my tap

spraying everywhere. keep this in mind about 3 inches around

with the force of  volcano. I tried to put a pot over the water

so that at least the water would go into the sink,

by this time I had about two inches of water everywhere..

the pot was not working so I got a great big towel

and then set a big painted rock on top of it.

Great it was going in the sink.

Now I know you are thinking well just shut off the hot water valves.

I can not get to them because they are in the crawl space,

and the trap door is too heavy for me to lift.

The sink was almost full, I got a bucket and started draining into the bathtub.

as soon as things seemed under control in the sink,

I called my husband at work.

I say Honey the hot water tap in the kitchen blew off,

He laughs and says, yeah right,

I think to myself are you kidding me.

I said I am serious and there is water everywhere.

Ok he says I will be there soon

It took him 45 minutes to show up from work,

He comes in and says did you lock up the cat,

what, well he needed to get into the crawl space and the cat tries to sneak down thee.

I say no I have not had a chance to catch the cat between buckets of water.

So he goes down stairs shuts off the water and then says are you okay,

Sure I am fine I say. I swear in the back porch I had freezing water back there,

my windows were so steamed up, my house felt like a sauna, looked like an ice rink and

a swimming pool.

Yes I am just peachy keen.

So he proceeds to fix it, which he had already done last Saturday,

and he says well that should hold it, should hold it,

I need a definate/////will hold it.

Okay honey I gotta go he says,

I kissed him goodbye and thanked him for saving the day.

As soon as he was out the door I headed for the fridge,

and stood there looking and thought why are you here,

what are you looking for.

I just wanted to eat something to feel better,

which I knew would make me feel worse.

So instead I grabbed some cold water,

sat on the couch, deep breathed and fell asleep

after two hours I woke and stood up and felt like I could hardly move.

I figure I lifted about 90 buckets of water

well it was one way to get a workout,

and I thought about water most of the day,

so I drank way over my 8 glasses.

Tomorrow I will finish washing all the towels and blankets

I used to sop things up with.

..............

Progress today was if this would have happened a year ago,

I would have been startled and the Cataplexy would have caused me

to fall and not be able to move. there could have been some serious damage,

and maybe I would have burnt myself.

So looking at the positive

I got to see my hubby a few moment in the day,

I got my floors washed., I got some exercise,

and now I have a reason to surf the net

for new taps and a new sink.

and I did not overeat.

Sometimes you just gotta go with the flow

and I don't mean water.

So how was your day?
