The Night Before Thanksgiving....

It was Wednesday night and all through The Badgett's house, was mom, Tyler and Ryan cleaning the house. I lifted a box, as it fell apart. To notice water all over the carpet. I called Eddie and he rushed home. I couldn't believe it, another flood. We called the Insurance company and at 10:20pm Service Masters by Rapid Responce came out with there equipment to start the dry out process. Thanks giving was the next day and we were expecting guests. We managed to still cook, but slept out in the trailer. The Old Mahagnety piano was wet and my Time Out chair that mom and dad made for the boys. With the expierence from last time, I made the decision that they were not going to take those items, because I will never get them back, let alone the value of them. By Friday the walls were still very wet. The carpet had already dried. They then came out on Monday to start tearing apart the drywall. The walls were still wet. By then the carpet had already dried. When the contractor came out for the previous flood he moved the fridge to paint the kitchen and obviously pushed the fridge and pintched off the water line to the ice maker. There was a slow drip. The water never came forward to the front of the fridge, but instead to the back to the office they just got finished remodeling and to the carpet in the living room. The boys have enjoyed sleeping in the trailer again. Because we haven't had the opportunity to decorate for Christmas Tyler is thinking that there is no Christmas because of the flood. Poor guy. Today is Thursday December 3rd. the contractor just finished the wall and painting. They will schedule for the fridge to be fixed, the tile to be re-layed, the carpets to be re-streched and steemend cleaned all before the 13th of December. This is when mom and dad will be down to share Christmas with us. We are excited, they are coming down to also go to the Bluegrass Christmas. They came down last year and loved it!
