So a half an hour after I got to work yesterday I get a call from my wife telling me the house is flooding. She has a tenancy to overreact so I figure one of the kids dumped some water on the floor and she's freaking out, but then I heard the splashing in the background as she walked - not a good sign. Turns out that the water pipe that leads to the hose connection outside had frozen and burst over the winter, so when she turned the hose on yesterday to water flowers it started filling up the wall and the kitchen and living room with over 1" of standing water.
Got the pipe replaced last night just before midnight, but we have to deal with the ripped up living room floor until later this week, as we can't even find out if we can still get the same flooring until Tuesday.
It's been a fun weekend so far
