Traumatic Day

What a traumatic day. I went into the bathroom to wash Caleb's hands after his dinner and went to shut off the hot water and the whole stupid handle popped off and water was shooting out just like a fire hydrant. I quickly threw everything out from under the sink so that I could turn the water off and of course it wouldn't budge. I through a towel over the shooting water and directed it mostly into the sink but it still was going everywhere. I ran to the neighbors and he wasn't home to help me so I ran back home and the thought came to me to turn the valve off on the water tank. I did that and the water shut off. By that point the whole bathroom was soaked in water. I called Reuben's dad and he came by and it took pliers and bending the valve to shut it completely off. Man, what a day. At least I'm pretty sure that there won't be any permanent damage.
