What a stupid day already!
My knee was still hurting a little when I got up, so I thought I should try splitting my walk into 2 shorter walks. So, I waited a while & just sort of watched TV and dozed off for a bit. At 9:45, I started to get ready for a 2 mile walk when I noticed an issue with the floor in the hallway. It sounded like it was coming up, but as I investigated it started to sound like sloshing. I could see a little moisture on the baseboard on the wall adjacent to the water tank. I went it an checked there. The pan is full of water and it is overflowing slowly. Because I had things stacked down there, I don’t know for how long. There doesn’t seem to be a ton of water soaked into anything, but it could also be draining more under the house. Hopefully the plumber can figure out what is going on. I put a service request in with my insurance, but they cannot come until Thursday, so I called someone else who is on the way right now. If it is a big issue, I’ll keep it through my home warranty. I am not happy with the contracted plumber though; they had terrible customer service, so I’m actually hoping this is an issue that isn’t too much different cost-wise. I’d happily pay a couple hundred this week just to keep from dealing with those people again. But if the quote is a lot higher, then I’ll have to just wait for them to come out. This is the third time I’ve had a person out to deal with this water tank.
I was just about half a mile into my walk when the plumber called to say he was on the way, so I only got in a single mile so far. It was a nice day for that; the neighborhood was surprisingly busy for a Tuesday morning. I didn’t even do my usual walk in the park, I meandered through the neighborhood. My goal was 5th Street, which goes under the highway into downtown, but I’ll get to doing that walk next time maybe. Now, I get to just wait around and hope there aren’t big things wrong. And I wish I knew how to shut that water off!
