So. New neighbors moved in up stairs on Monday. It looks like a single mom and her 3 kids, the oldest is 17 and the youngest is 12. The mother came down Tuesday evening to ask if we'd be interested in sharing cable with her and the family on the top floor.
We got screwed over on a "deal" like that before so we said no.
Yesterday afternoon we noticed some "rain" noise but it wasn't;t raining out side. It was, however, pouring in our bedroom. Carrie called the landlord and I went upstairs to see what the problem was. The sink next to the washing machine, used for drainage, overflowed. A sock had gotten into it and blocked the drain when someone did a load of laundry.
We ended up having to do a small load of wash since our comforter got soaked. The middle daughter came down to help us clean up and Nova got over excited....Right the middle of our bed so the sheets needed to get washed too.
Later in the evening she came back down with our clean laundry and stayed for a Pepsi. She's a typical 16 year old girl, starts talking and doesn't stop. LOL
Shortly after, her older sister(17) came down as well. She barely spoke. They left after about an hour.
20 minutes later the phone rings. The 16 year old wanted to know if she could borrow some movies. She came back down with her brother. Now I don't remember the girl's names, but his is Christopher. He and I talked a bit about paintball and I loaned him one of my magazines. I think he's hooked and he hasn't played yet.
Any way, it looks like the ceiling in our room needs to be repaired due to water damage. I'm just glad things weren't any worse.
