So last night around 1:00 am, I awoke to a loud dripping noise (I know, the fact that a drip woke me up is surprising but since becoming a mom, I am a very light sleeper!). I tried to wake up Jono but he was fast asleep so I went to investigate. I was hopeful that the drip was outside...perhaps even an icicle melting. But no, I quickly found that the window in our master bedroom was leaking. And not just a little leak- more like water pouring in from outside. GREAT!! I yelled for Jono and with a little teamwork, we were able to direct the water into a trashcan. We woke up this morning to a trashcan full of water and some very damp towels. Oh the joys of owning a home...long gone are the days of calling the landlord to get something fixed!
I am so over all of this snow- is it spring yet?
So this is what caused the leak- several feet of snow!
Our first attempt to stop the dripping
Jono rigged this little contraption and it worked great! Gotta love a man that is creative even in the middle of the night :)
Wow...that's a TON of snow. I know what you mean...owning a home is fabulous until you have to fix something! :) Hope it's not too much trouble to repair.
ReplyDeleteyou poor thing! Just what you need - ANOTHER reason to get up in the middle of the night!!! That snow is sooo crazy!
