Anything That Can Go Wrong...

 ...will go wrong. 

I'm specifically referring to the mysterious leak that required our landlord to rip up all the flooring in our den. This view, and the pervasive smell of wet basement, greeted me after work last night.  
Oh, and here's all our stuff, now taking up residence in our kitchen.
(needless to say, the contents of that Yuengling case didn't last long) 

Yet, despite the poor timing of this, I am grateful because this happened while we were home and not away on our honeymoon. And really, I have to keep it in perspective that, while I'm experiencing some inconvenience, it's nothing like those Americans dealing with the extensive flooding.

Adam, always the kidder, said to me, "Well, if you wanted to rearrange everything, here's your chance!"
Thanks, dear.

  2. Oh, Ashley, what a bummer. At least most of your things are okay and intact. You do have the right outlook, and your hubby-to-be does as well. Good luck with your clean-up efforts, and of course, your wedding prep!

  6. Oh so sorry. Water can be so destructive. I love Yuengling. Sadly they don't sell it in KY. It would not last long at our place either:)

  9. Sorry about the leak. The designer left a comment re: your question. The painting you were wondering about is from American Eye in the DC Design Center, artist David Gillenwater. Hope things go well with the fix.
