Flood Day

Disaster today--of a small kind. An open tap, a clogged sink, some inattention, and a flood that covered the bathroom and progressed down the hallway. We've been saying for years that we need to replace the old carpeting. It was installed about 30 years ago, and has been looking increasingly shabby, but the thought of boxing all the books, emptying all the drawers and moving all the furniture was just a bit much.

Now, I guess we'll have to do something. Three goes with the water-sucking vacuum, and the carpet is still squishy underfoot. It's getting late; we will try again tomorrow.

Watch this space for developments!
