So sorry you are dealing with all this now! Life can certainly throw some doozies at us! UGH!

As others have already said, this should be under warranty and not cost you any money. But it certainly is a stressful ordeal to have to live with temporarily. Can someone come out and look at it now even though it is the holidays, or will you need to wait until Monday? Hopefully the rain has stopped!

I hope you are able to keep your wonderful Casey sense of humor today at mom in laws, and will return to your own place with the relief that it is over for another year!

Check in with us later, Casey, and let us know how everything is going on: the visit, as well as what's happening with the roof. Is it freezing in your house too with the leaks? Oh boy.

Please let us all know how you are. We Love ya Babe!

After a good night's sleep, I'm feeling a little more positive. I'm still not exactly happy about going up to Limestone, but as you can see, we're making a much later start than originally planned. Late start = less time spent there = me thinking I can get through this ok. Power of positive thinking! I'm taking safe snacking food and a knitting project, and I'm prepared to sit in the TV room with the kids the entire time if need be.

As for the roof... when Adam got home, he went up into the attic and looked around, and guess what? The NEW roof is absolutely fine - no leaks. The ceiling that fell is in part of the house that's a newer addition (we're thinking maybe 1970s), and THAT part of the roof wasn't redone, because we were all under the impression from the realtor's information that the leak had been repaired. Obviously, the seller lied to her.

So I don't know what recourse we have, but the warranty on the new roof - if we even have one, since family did it for us, I don't know how that works - isn't going to cover it.

Anyway, for now, I'm not going to worry about it. I'm going to worry about getting through today, and then I'm going to ENJOY tomorrow - a nice lazy day in my pajamas, with lots of safe food and lots of PRESENTS!

Thanks for all the good thoughts, guys! *hugs all around*

Awww Casey! That just sucks! i would have cried if that happened to me! Good for you for keeping a good head, I freak when things like that happen.
About your Bf's mom, yikes, just thing the major holidays are only once a year, and once you get it over with you will have an excuse to avoid her for a while. It is a shame for him too, seeing how you can't pick your family!
Hope you can find a shred of fun in it, or atleast get through it with ok

Casey, so sorry to hear about the roof leak, as soon as you think you may be catching up, something ugly always seems to happen!

I understand the in-law thing, mine both smoke and so does their care taker. We went over several nights ago and there were three smoke clouds hovering in the dining room and kitchen. It smells in their house and I can't breathe, always come home and get right into the shower and scrub my whole body and hair. I have so many sinus problems and I hate it when I suffer while visiting them, one reason we dont go over much! Hope you made it through the day!

We came home from my mom's tonight in the snow. It never snows where I live, but tonight it was falling profusely! About 2 hours ago I had about 5" in my front yard, it is so beautiful! Our animals are suffering though, cows, horses, and dogs. We put the horses in the barn with extra hay and padded the dogs beds (they have kennels) with hay also. We also brought in 2 more dogs onto our back porch, they dont smell very nice! I hate to see the things we will have to face in the morning, as it is suppossed to snow all night long. We went for a moonlight walk, I stumbled several times because I am not used to walking where I cant see the ground. It was fun though, and very calming. Hope your Christmas Day is nice. Gayla
