I love this quote so I'm using it as my thought for the day.
It's always nice to have James home. He went down this morning and tried to light the hot water heater but it wouldn't stay lit so I went upstairs to take a shower.
James's main focus today was to get the bill ready for Hatch Hanger so we can collect some money. It took most of the day. He got it emailed late in the day which probably means we won't get paid until next week.
James went downstairs this afternoon and tore out the drywall in the hot water heater room ceiling where the paint was bubbled up to try and find the leak but he didn't have any luck. There is no leaking in our bathtub or shower. Now he thinks maybe the water came in when it rained. Why is it so difficult to solve this problem. He also thinks the hot water heater is totally unrelated to the leak. I don't know what to think. We also found more water in the years supply room closet. We had to pull up the carpet and put a fan and a heater to dry everything out. Also James said he vacuumed a ton of water out of the pad. There was also some water in the closet off the downstairs bathroom. I cleaned out all the wet boxes and threw them outside. Later James took them out to burn them along with some brush he was burning.
James made us steak and broccoli for lunch using the leftovers in our refrigerator. We sat out on the porch and read from Blackmore and watched the clouds build up and the hummingbirds fight over the feeder.
Sheri called this afternoon. The side fence of their backyard came down today. The surveyors will pay to build her a new one. Someone is building next to them and discovered the fence was actually on their property. How sad.
This sounds much worse than our fire.
