For Sale: 3 Bedroom, 1/4 Bath

Wednesday night Jack was taking a bath and he called out, "Mom! I just broke the wall!" And guess what? He had. He had put his little 5 year old hand through the tile, through the sheet rock. Through the wall. And before you ask, "What are you feeding that kid?!?!" I'm gonna tell you. Gluten free, man. Gluten free. But his gluten-free-super-power-super-strength isn't the reason the wall broke off. Apparently, water damage is the reason. Somehow, water had leaked into the wall and pretty much mushed it all up. Because it was pretty much mush.

So my dad came over to take a look and see what was salvageable.

Apparently, not much.

FOR SALE: 3 Bedroom, 1/4 Bathroom Home. Weird teenage boy may or may not be included.



So for now the wall is ripped out. The insulation is ripped out. A few clear plastic sheets have been hung with some duct tape so we can kindda shower, cause, you know, we only have ONE bathroom. And let me tell you, taking a quick shower in there is creepy. Like, Norman Bates creepy.

Doh! If you want to go all out for Halloween you could always make it open to the outside of the house and randomly jump trick or treaters. Martha Stewart would have nothing on that.

hahahahaha you never cease to make me laugh. I was just telling dad how practical I think you are. He said, yes, and she really sees all the sarcastic humor in life too. Amen father.
