We have had a very wild morning here at the Jone's House!
Mama called daddy at work to tell him that her
washing machine was leaking!
(She should have thought about that one a little longer!)
He came over, turned the washing machine upside down
to find that it wasn't the machine leaking at all it was the
hot water faucet that goes into the washing machine!
Daddy said great, this will be easy
so he begin to tighten the faucet that's when the handle
just broke off! Then he decided he would go ahead and
finish tightening it up and then go get a new handle to put on.
So he got his handy dandy wrench back out, put it around the nut
and the whole faucet broke off. Leaving just the pipe in the wall
with hot water shooting out every where. I mean not just
a little water like a ton of water shooting out! Sorry we
didn't get a picture, although we wish we had, because
this is going down in the Jones' book of funny memories!
As mama and daddy were running around trying to decide
how to get the water cut off to the house and trying to get a
water hose to the pipe to run out of the house
us girls were standing in ankle deep water in the laundry
room, that was now running out into the kitchen!
Finally mama got the water turned off at the pump
after flipping a half dozen wrong switches!
Then it was time for clean up!
We got some good use out of daddy's handy
shop vac and the ten billion towels that
we had to use to get things dried up.
But it's all over now and the washing machine
is up and running with no leak we must add!
Mama will think twice before asking daddy to
fix a leak, but if she ever does daddy will
not think twice about calling someone else!
We couldn't do anything but laugh, there
was no use in getting mad!
Just remember when life shoots water
just put on your bathing suit and enjoy!
For everything happens for a reason and
we must glorify God always!
Even when our feet get wrinkled
from playing in the water too long!
