Gack - and again I say Gack!

Spent the day doing phone-tag with repair-guys and getting visits.

OK - so after 2 weeks there is no hole in the roof, the fireplace is replaced and -today- they did the 'texturing' coat atop the 'mud' on the drywall. They still need to paint and re-tile, but that can wait until after we get back on the 15th.

Plus the PG&E guy came out, removed the lock on our meter so the electrician could get into it and [hopefully, theoretically] fix our problem. he says that there was corrosion present and he thinks the problem is now fixed. I -really- hope he is right. Having working electrical power is a VERY good thing.

Then, just for 'fun' my ISP stopped our service. I was suspecting this might happen since I had just replaced my credit card expiry date, so that took only an hour to fix.

It's been a heckuva day.

*great big hugs* Here's hoping you don't have any more such heckuva days. (O.O) We just discovered a leak somewhere in our plumbing. I say somewhere, because I'm not sure exactly where it is. Just that it's in the walls, and the water comes out from under the baseboards. (-.-) Naturally, when we discovered it, it was already too late to get the plumber, so I've just been shoving towels around to soak up the water. We're not using the tub or sink in the bathroom, either, as that seems to exacerbate the problem. Maybe the guy can come out today and take care of it. I hope so. I hate the smell of wet wood. eww. ;P

I HATE being on the phone for more than about 2 minutes. It's probably the only reason I bother paying my bills have the time, lol ;}
