God is Good and Captain Disaster Wins

 This morning did not begin as planned.

Brad was supposed to be traveling to DC this morning. He found out his afternoon meeting today moved virtual, so he was able to delay his flight to this evening since he would have no where to take a virtual meeting early this afternoon if he was traveling.

I went out to do my yoga this morning, and I heard running water. That is never a good thing in the garage. Sure enough, our hot water heater had sprung a leak. I went to get Brad up--extra grateful he was there. We started moving things, and then I looked up hot to shut down a water heater and narrated the process to him.

While he drained the tank with a garden hose I called ARS. They were here by 8:15.

The good news:

Brad had just redone the garage and the only thing directly on the floor were some mats and weights--all things that are easy to dry.

ARS is able to replace the water heater today, which is even better since we had to turn water off to the house until it's repaired.

Brad's meetings for the next two days also moved to a virtual option, so he was able to cancel his trip no problem, which means he will be here for the whole repair/dry out process.

It is certainly not a fun way to start the day, but we are so grateful that we are able to get it repaired today and that we were both here to deal with the chaos and still get everyone where they needed to be this morning!

Onward...
