Words That A Hoarder Never Wants to Hear



I took one of the kids to see Spider-Man tonight. Good movie by the way! But then, sometime during the movie, I got a text from home. The text had words that a hoarder never wants to hear! 

The text said: A PIPE BROKE.  

Those are horrible words to hear when you know that a hoarder spends most of their time in the basement.

A broken pipe means that lots of things will be wet. There will be water under storage bins that doesn’t dry. There’s so many things that the water could get into. Then months later, mold will start to appear. It’s a nightmare.

Not only that, but if a plumber (or other repair person) needs to be called, we have to let them in the house. Nothing more embarrassing. Since it’s usually an emergency, there’s no time to clean any of the other rooms.

 I couldn’t deal with it tonight and I have to work tomorrow but as soon as I get home, that’s where I’ll be headed for hours.  

Lots of challenge days will get done all at once!  Oh well, it’s good timing because I was just about caught up anyways.

I’ll update this more tomorrow after I’m able to assess the damage.
