  • No reason to cry over spilled water....

    Well it happened again! I was making ro/di water last night, started to get sleepy, didn't feel well, took some nyquil, went to bed and was woke up by my hubby at 5:00 am. My kitty (Lilly) has an eye infection so he woke me up at 5:00 am to help me put drops in her eyes before he went to work. We have to do this twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. Anyway after we put the drops in he asked me if I was off today. I told him no and asked why? He replied oh baby I'm sorry.    I knew it wasn't good!   8O  I said just lay it on me. Then he told me: You left the water on last night   :doh:  and the dining room is flooded from the kitchen to the desk!  8O  8O  Well my first reaction was, Oh well I may as well go back to sleep, there's nothing I can do about it now. Then two seconds later my reaction was C#@P! I have to get up and get this water out of the carpet!   :evil: Now that I have been up for an hour and a half sucking up water he calls me from work.
    I answer the phone:
    Him: How's it going,
    Me: It sucks!
     He got a kick out of that. You have to love an understanding hubby. Btw: He mopped up the kitchen before telling me about the flood. Even though I started with a bad day it will still be good because he wuvs me. Excuse me while I go back to sucking my carpet.... :aua:

      There is a better way if this happens again.. run down to your neighborhood Kroger and rent a carpet cleaner.
      Within minutes you can have clean carpets.. and all the extra water is removed too :)

        Thanks Zulaab, I had to come into work but a co-worker has a steam clearner they are going to bring to me today on their lunch break. Believe me there is still enough water in my carpet to go around. :(

            Would it work if I have the hose connected directly to the sink with an adaptor and not on the pipes under the sink and the line running from the kitchen to the dinning room into the drum? I thought about getting one but was never sure how to hook it up. Actually I would probally need two. One for the reserve water and one for the 55 gallon drum (saltwater mix).

                Great! Thanks EK. Now one more question....What is BFS and where is it located? I looked in foster smith and it's $48 for the kit.

                    you can go cheap or for only a few dollars more you  can go first class  
                    'Dear Lord,' the minister began, with arms extended toward heaven and a rapturous look on his upturned face. 'Without you, we are but dust ...'
                    He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little four-year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'
