My folks house caught on fire Wednesday night about midnight. There downstairs basement is basically like another entire house (it's bigger than my entire house. I think) with its own laundry room. That's where the fire happened.
They had 4 fire trucks in their driveway at like 1 AM. Luckily the fire out itself out. My folks are on vacation of course.
The problem is it burned the whole room and the walls and even the plumbing and that is where their main line to their septic friend goes out and it burned the whole septic pipe and it's all melted and collapsed and underground and they can't even reach it to fix it. So they are gonna have to rip up the concrete floor and do some trenching just to repair it.
So they basically can't use any water in the house. It's gonna be at least a week to fix. So my sister and her kids are staying in a hotel and now my brother is good enough to stay there ... my mom called him crying. So he's not coming down.
I'm just glad it's not worse. They have a bunch of puppies there. It's going to be very hard to care for the puppies and do everything with no plumbing in the house. They have to do and a lot of cleaning and give them bathes sometimes and before they go to their new homes. I know 3 people were supposed to come on Tuesday to pick up their puppies l.so theybhave a lot of people coming to their home. Just a disaster.
My folks are at Disney world and they wanted to just go there and relax. My dad said he's not even really planning on going to the parks (they have a time share through Disney so they can go whenever they want) ... he just wanted to relax there and get alway. Not very relaxing I'm sure with all this going on.
My brother is pizzed. He's like now I'm good enough to stay there. My sister was acting all sweet and nice to him, when she's the one who said he couldn't stay there while my folks were gone.
