So they are replacing the 100 year old water pipes on our street. Which is a good thing. But obviously creates a bit of turmoil in the process. We were unable to park on our street from 9-5 from March 31 to May 1st. Which is a huge pain when you are toting around 2 children (and groceries, and strollers, and diaper bags…). But Wil was fan of the construction equipment:
We walk by it almost every day! Its still parked south of our street.
We had above ground water pipes for over a month:
Then they failed and leaked into our basement:
Which was followed by a huge rain storm, which leaked more water into our basement. But the silver lining was that the carpet was already pulled up! (Polish that turd!)
At least with everything pulled up from the basement, Wil and Evie had plenty of pillows and blankets to play with:
As on 5/9/14 – the construction still isnt done, but our basement is put back together. Hoping for no more disasters.
