Ultra amount of stress at work.
House flooded last christmas.
Mitigated it ourselves.
Contractor tried to screw us out of $40k.
Now, Doing the repairs ourselves.
Time crunch for family and friends visiting.
This morning:
*Return pump on my big reef stopped working. Troubleshooting didnt yield results. My 2 backups are destroyed from the christmas flooding... Meanwhile, popped in a heater and air pump.
*Then i left for a quick work stop... i need my laptop charger.
*Suddenly, both power and internet went out.
*i turned around to go home.
*power comes back but no internet all day.
*My small tank wasnt prepared for this, and the sump overflowed. Seeping water under/into the bamboo floor and into the finished basement below that we are currently repairing for the upcoming family visits.
*The leaking water shorted the lights in the basement... so ive been mitigating in the dark.
*Hired ServPro, and they got their fans and dehumidifiers here now.
*Filed an insurance claim... should be a few days to hear back from them.
*swung by home depot to buy some parts, and rigged up my undersized return pump on the big tank. This will have to work until the new pump arrives.
*Wifi is back on!
*Temp is up to 74.6 degrees (the lowest was 71.0!)
Theres a lot more i didnt mention... but darn its a lot. Just wanted to vent a bit.
Since wifi is back, i will now check our insurance policy, and work some more.
