My poor DH! He just can't get a break this weekend! First, late Friday night he chops down a branch to prevent a disaster to our roof. Second, Saturday and into yesterday morning he has to put new flooring in along with a new sink to the guest bathroom due to a major leak. And now....(drum roll please)....
He's fixing another leak! SIL was on her lap top when she heard a POP! Pppsssshhhh! noise coming from the wall. We were at my great aunt/uncle's house. She turns the water off to the house and calls us. Thank goodness we were just 10 minutes away. Anyways, DH is ripping their bedroom floor up to get to the pipes. Its too early to tell if the leak is the sink or the toilet or the shower this time. The bathroom is totally dry, so he knows its coming from the pipes either in the walls or underneath the house. But will definetly pop in later to give ya'll an update!
BTW, thanks for listening fellow cherries. Not sure what I'd do w/o having a place to vent! Hope everyone is enjoying their Labor Day Holiday!!
*EDITED 1st time***
We finally found the source of the problem. In the wall and its the toilet. We've already gone to Home Depot to get parts. Spent less than $7! Hopefully DH can get it repaired w/o having to make anymore trips to the HD.
*EDITED 2nd time***
DH fixed the leak. Turns the water back on and he finds another one. This time, its coming from the cast iron drain. So back to Home Depot where parts costs $9. Crossing my fingers this is the last leak.

It sounds like you guys need to pray to the water God.....lol. I can say that in the last year I've certainly had my share of water problems. Every time I turned around I had a leak some where. It was not fun. I hope everything works out and your hubby can find the problem.

I guess the saying "When it rains, it pours" is really accurate in this particular circumstance.
