All for Naught

Our kitchen floor is completed and the refrigerator is repaired. We were just starting to get everything back in its place. Then tonight I decided to get caught up on laundry. I put a load of clothes in the washing machine and went to use the restroom. Suddenly Darwin starts yelling my name and TheDaughter ran down the hallway frantically saying "Mommy, Mommy". I imagined the worse. I thought Darwin had severed a limb or something. Instead, our washer lost it's mind and decided to keep filling with water ... and keep filling with water ... and keep filling with water. It didn't shut off and begin washing; it just kept going and going and going. Like the Energizer Bunny. The water was in the laundry room, the kitchen, and the dinning room before Darwin noticed it. All over our new flooring. Laminate and water don't mesh well. What a mess!
