I was thinking last night, as I threw a bunch of clothes in and set the delay timer on our fancy washing machine that, today, I would post a wonderful post on how we were getting along with the machine so well, and it was making our lives easier. We've sorted through the technology, and are enjoying the fact that we don't have to babysit it all night long.
I got up at 8 this morning (which is early for me), and Jesse was still sleeping (which is late for him). It was a rather hot night and I don't think he got much sleep. Anyway, I turned the internet modem on and headed to the bathroom before booting up the computer. I was greeted by - water. Lint. I stepped over the puddles onto the rug at the base of the toilet, only to splash in a puddle of water on the toilet-rug. Apparently, the drainage hose had come out of the sink (there was an unidentified noise as we were going to bed last night; I've decided that must have been it) and drained the entire washer-full of water onto the laundry room floor, which leaked into the toilet room.
I procured a plastic bag, placed the dripping wet rug in it, and scampered out the back door, where I hung it to dry. I mopped up the wet, linty toilet room, hung out the clean clothes, and placed all the wet dirty clothes inside (our dirty clothes were sorted into piles on the floor of the laundry room, which probably prevented the water from spreading further) for a quick wash. I set up a fan to try to evaporate the mopped floor. Jesse woke up and helped me hang out the clean clothes.
Adventures.
