I'm having a day! The chimney cleaner was just here and discovered I need to have my chimney tuckpointed, and when we went downstairs to look at the ducts we saw that one of my pipes in the basement ceiling is dripping water fast and hard and there's a stream to the drain. So now I'm waiting for the plumber. Cross your fingers for me!
