Problem Solved

The plumbers showed up around 10 this morning. At first it was two guys. They looked at where it was leaking, asked for a piece of paper to write down the serial number, and said they would be back in a little while.

Two hours later, five guys showed up with a brand new water heater.

I guess they couldn't fix the problem. I am just happy I no longer have to leave towels all over the kitchen floor.

Leaking Water Heater

Junior called again today to tell the management company about our leaking water heater. He had to leave a message. It has gotten so bad that we had to turn it off. I can finally see where it is leaking from...it's not the bottom that's leaking...it's a panel on the side. Junior took it off to see what the problem was, and he doesn't think it's something fixable. He believes we need a new water heater. I'm hoping the plumber comes some time today, but who knows. They still haven't been out to look at my bathtub faucet.

My Kitchen Sink

I am having the worst luck with my kitchen sink. Do you remember a few months ago when the hot water pipe burst? Junior fixed it himself, but he only put a temporary fix on it Yesterday, it started leaking again. This time, it's just a slow drip, and not a major flood. We have yet another call into the management company, and they said they would send someone out tomorrow. I hope it's someone from Salt Lake City Plumbing who knows what he's doing.

Speaking of the management company, they still haven't come out about the dog next door. I think the girl went back to work, because she was gone all morning. But as soon as she got home this afternoon, she booted the dog out the door. This was right around the time I was getting Brandi off the bus, so as I was waiting, I watched the dog go in my yard and poop. I was so mad. When we were walking past her door, the neighbor was standing outside smoking. I told Brandi, very loudly, to watch out for the poop. She asked where it was, and I said it was everywhere. I hope the girl took the hint, but I doubt it. Hopefully when they come out to look at my sink they will see the dog.

Plumbing Issues, Yet Again

If it's not one thing, it's another.

Remember a few weeks ago when my bath tub wasn't draining properly? We called the management company, and they said they would send someone out to look at it, but they never did. Junior ended up fixing it temporarily, and whatever he did, it didn't last long. The tub is back to not draining. Junior doesn't think it's a clog, because last time he took the whole back pipe apart, and didn't find anything. He said he would call the management company, again, and see if they can actually send someone out this time.

I'm not holding my breath.

I think we should just call in a Birmingham Plumbing company to come take a look, and then deduct whatever we pay them out of our rent. It's getting so bad that after you take a shower, it takes a couple of hours for the water to drain. That's right, I said hours. The kids end up standing in each others water to shower at night because they all have to bathe. It's insane.

I am going to have to have Junior do something for this weekend, because I will be embarrassed if during the party, someone has to use the restroom, and my bathtub is full of water.
