When water leaked from the shower into our closet, they just pulled the carpet up and blew fans on the floor and wall for a couple of days.Kessiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15019626781634777336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044361545139026110.post-85790352583691972302012-12-13T17:07:53.089-08:002012-12-13T17:07:53.089-08:00Oh my goodness ~ what a trying time for you.

Oh well, they do last about 10 years before they start leaking so I guess it's time was up.

I love that old song.<br /><br />When you were talking that you took your shoes off I was kind of wondering if it was the sourse of the wet sheep smell, although I had never heard that shoes could smell like wet sheep. lol...<br /><br />I'm glad that you were led to your closet and found the problem before it got bigger and that your hubby fixed it.

Now I will express my ignorance and say I had no idea a house COULD have two hot water heaters...but what a wonderful idea. Now you (like you said) aren't stuck with NO hot water at all. It rained ALL night here too..I loved it! It is cool here too, but still in the 50's. It is really cool there though huh?
