Well, Wyatt and I both took the day off but it wasn't for a very fun reason. Last night Kelli came into our bedroom (Wyatt and I were both in bed) and she said, "My toilet is overflowing!!" So we got up and ran downstairs. By the time we got there, there was sewer water all over the floor and the toilet was still running. Wyatt ran outside and unscrewed the outside outlet and water spewed everywhere. So we finally got it all under control and made a quick trip to Home Depot and rented a Rug Doctor to suck up all the water.
We found out later that the builder here neglected to tell our development that sewer wasn't included in the HOA and now after a year and three months with no bill or prior notice, the sewer company came and plugged up our pipe. They did give us notice though, a folded up piece of paper they stuck in the crack of our front door (which didn't do us much good because we always come in to the house from the garage) letting us know that they were plugging up our sewer until we came and signed up an account with them. Well, we ended up pulling up all the carpet and installing tile (thank goodness for a handyman husband).
Wyatt called the sewer company and they told us to take it up with the home builder. We spent the whole day just trying to clean up the mess. The story will continue I'm sure...
