I'm Michelle. Most days I am at home, reading books, various cleaning for my family, and baking on occasion. Usually if we have any issues, my husband takes care of them, from clogged pipes to cabinet repair to do-it-yourself projects I come up with.
On this given week, he was out of town for work, and we woke up in the morning to a thin layer of water leaking out from our mechanical room. I got contacted my husband, and he instructed me how to turn off the water, and gave me a number of the plumber he used on occasion so I could get it fixed that day. I called them right away, and they were going to send someone out in about an hour. Until then, I didn't have much to do with the water off, so I picked up a book I started last month and figured I could get caught up.
As I heard the doorbell, I realized an hour flew by while I was reading, and hopped up to get to the door. Once I opened it, I realized the plumber was a mid-30's man, broad-build, not muscular but fit standing there. I enjoyed the view for a moment, and then he asked Michelle to make sure he was in the right place. After reassuring him he was, I showed him in and to the issue at hand.
As he looked at it, walking through the layer of water, he said he recognized the problem, had to grab a few things from his truck and should have it fixed in about an hour. I told him, great, then I can get my shower in, as I hadn't been able to do that this morning since I turned off the water. He said he could bypass the problem for now so I could do that if I needed to. I said that would be nice.
After he returned from his truck, he got it bypassed, and let me know. I said thanks and told him to let me know once it was fixed. I headed up to take my shower, then I could get ready and get some errands ran that afternoon, while he continued to work.
