Added 2025-06-10 03:54:36 +0000 UTCThe day started out with a bang…. or should I say a “whoosh” because the hose blew off from under my kitchen sink while I was still in bed. I panicked so much that I completely forgot about the shut off valves under the sink. I couldn’t tell what happened but all I knew is it was raining when I opened the cabinet doors lol. So I ran all the way out to my meter, which is 400 feet from my front door (after throwing on some pants). Not remembering which one it was, I frantically dug around in the leaves looking for the meter. I found two meters and shut them both off. Then hoped one of them was it as I walked back to the house. It was! I messaged my boss and told her I would definitely be late. Then I spent the next 2 hours mopping the water up from the living room, kitchen, and the part of the bedroom where it reached the carpet. Needless to say, it was a rough start to the day. Stainless is definitely the way to go, if I knew that was plastic inside there, I would have changed it a long time ago.
