Sorry to hear about your luck Tony. Maybe these pics will cheer you up a bit. Not to say that these situations are better or worse, but to say that you are not alone.

Calgary, last night.

Yikes!!
This might be the only time I've ever been glad I was in Edmonton

Hey Tony at least the floor in your laundry room got a good cleaning.
Sorry, I couldn't help myself. That is a real bummer that happened. It unfortunate when bad luck things happen to nice people. Is everything ok?

Hey Greg, thanks. Yeah indeed, the floor got pretty clean under the machines!!

The hardwood is looking better, it does have some minor damage but not enough to warrant tearing it up. There is still a pretty bad ripple in the lino in the pantry that I'm not sure how to fix.

Things could be worse though. To be honest it's been furthest from my mind today due to other circumstances. An acquaintance of mine from some years ago (we were stand-mates in the youth orchestra together) was in a plane crash this week, I just read about his passing in the paper this morning. Suddenly a wet floor just seems kind of .. insignificant.
