The previous owner had somehow piped the plumbing outside above the porch roof and back into the bathroom. We had a really freezing night and woke up in the middle of the night to water dripping. I walked down the stairs to find the problem and when I stepped off the final stair I stepped into about 6 inches of freezing cold water, because a pipe froze and burst. It was pouring through our ceiling. And I missed those old HGTV shows. They also had a lot a great gardening shows.Penny from Enjoying The Simple Thingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01480355122441712250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173691505669853688.post-29811999395251640742018-04-02T10:10:00.164-05:002018-04-02T10:10:00.164-05:00And yes, I miss Kitty too.And yes, I miss Kitty too.Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15171389134207433317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173691505669853688.post-4752896743748475132018-04-02T10:09:30.031-05:002018-04-02T10:09:30.031-05:00my heavens!

My little boy loved washing his cars in the powder room sink, and one day the car just went through the sink, HOLE. So my husband, not a bad plumber, not tidy though, took the sink off and went to buy another, as he came home we realized it was not going to fit into the counter, so NEW, counter. As he was removing the counter, he ripped off the, newly applied, wallpaper. $$$$$. I cried.Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15171389134207433317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173691505669853688.post-27620956242824717742018-04-01T02:43:24.233-05:002018-04-01T02:43:24.233-05:00Me again!!

I am not a fan of Fixer Upper and the Farmhouse look. And the other shows are all about flipping houses. I do miss the old HGTV!! Trading Spaces is coming back though so I may just watch that and see how it is.....<br />Hugs,<br />DebDebbie-Dabble Blog and A Debbie-Dabble Christmashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09393980831584145593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173691505669853688.post-19985382430195577492018-03-28T17:28:41.622-05:002018-03-28T17:28:41.622-05:00Oh, I so feel your pain.

I've never quite gone that far, but yes, water is the absolute worst. <br /><br />I think HGTV has gone way downhill since they dropped most of the decorating shows. I don't need four hours of house hunting. I'm not looking for a house internationally or otherwise. But I could use a little help with design and decor!Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17482528482559445943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173691505669853688.post-63169818527597802842018-03-27T22:24:49.602-05:002018-03-27T22:24:49.602-05:00OMGosh- What a nightmare.

We had to call the city to come and turn the water off at the street. A true nightmare. It wrecked the new flooring that we had just put down and I just keep sweeping it outside (thank God we had a door to the outside onto a patio there). It is painful to remember it. lol<br /><br />Have a wonderful Easter, Sugar. xo DianaNanaDianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14298962791700019785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173691505669853688.post-48069320290038005832018-03-27T19:42:07.809-05:002018-03-27T19:42:07.809-05:00Oh my goodness!

You know, I had always thought that HGTV was all about decorating but I can never find anything on there worth watching. Thank you for the hint on how to freshen up our old leather couch. I plan to do that.Henny Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05958386938311591314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173691505669853688.post-78005347797654051402018-03-27T14:05:43.770-05:002018-03-27T14:05:43.770-05:00No, the picture never got hung.

I remember hanging a 15 foot swag in my dining room well after midnight after one of those shows! Good memories. I don't watch much anymore either but, instead, get my inspiration from blogs.
