So my cousin-in-law was out front near our street smoking a butt at our party today when she came running out back to announce that water was bubbling up from our lawn and we were like, What?! So we headed out front and it was all over our front lawn, and streaming down the street! Eugene called the town and was told that if the pipe was broken from our yard to the street, it's the town's responsibility to fix it but if the pipe is broken from our yard to the house, it's our responsibility. Guess where the pipe is broken? And do you even want to guess how much it's going to cost to fix it??
Eugene jokingly said to my dad, "I guess I'm gonna have to take back the bike I just bought." My MIL overheard him say that and privately mentioned to him later, "Do you really need to return your bike? Are you unable to afford the cost of fixing this? I will give you the money." He laughed and hugged his mom, and told her he was just kidding and we're ok but thank you. She's so sweet.
Anyway, we're both really, really bummed ... we wanted a new and expanded driveway.
Re: A Pipe Broke and it's OURS
OH NO!!!!!
I wonder how the heck that happened, could've been a tree root I suppose.
Oh, now I feel bad.....I can't fight you after hearing this! LOL!
