Half Full or Half Empty?

Last night it was all empty. After we settled for bed, Kelsie came upstairs and announced she had a corner of soggy carpet in her bedroom. It felt like a bad dream. Again. Last time this happened, it was only my sister Becky and I home with all of it's sogginess. I think all water heaters should come with an alarm system that warns you about impending leaks. We went down to look and Larry turned off the water main until morning... I shamefully went back to bed and threw a blanket over my head, leaving the soggy carpet in Larry & Kelsie's hands. Not my best self.

I was there when your other water heater broke several years ago...I'm so sorry. At least you were home and caught it fairly early. Liked the picture of your empty cup. We all feel like that at times. Good thing the Lord always fills it back up♥

Suzette T. gave me the link for a $15 water alarm. Every home should have one. securityhardwarestore.com "product categories" "sensors & controls" "water detectors" I've ordered mine. Sorry about your mess.
