Talk about an interesting day. I came downstairs to take a picture of the sunrise and the floating wooden floor in our exercise room was actually floating on water. I turned the main shut off valve when stopped the problem temporarily.   After getting plumbers here less than an hour after calling them, it was determined that a copper pipe that ran through our brick wall to the outside and been corroded by the moisture around where it went through the wall. The pipe is now replaced, and water is running through our pipes once again to its appointed destinations. I'm now just waiting for the insurance company before I start pulling up carpet and flooring so things can dry out. Ah the joys of owning a house. Fortunately where I work, Webmail.us, is pretty flexible so I was able to stay home and handle the crisis. That's one of the great things about technology, you can get your job done from almost anywhere these days if you're in information techology. It's one of the strengths of our country, and how our company Webmail.us turns hosted email into a great solution for many businesses. 1:39:07 PM    comment []
