I'm Back! After A Long Week : (

I can say we have had a long week. But yet our problems are little compared to others. We had to get our floor in our kitchen replaced because of a defective ice-maker hose that leaked around January. It ruined the part of the floor around the fridge and leaked into our living room. Ruining the sub-flooring underneath the ceramic tile and a small portion of our hardwood floor. Originally we had the builder come in and look at it and he was going to fix it. The whole entire floor was cracking. The grout between the tile was crumbling all over the entire kitchen and we couldn't figure out why. So our builder said it was the vinegar water we use to mop the floor with. Uh..... That was what the floor people told us to use, so we knew that wasn't the reason. Then he said it was maybe a bad batch of grout. Okay, maybe?
So we brought in a tile layer who knew everything about flooring. He looked at it and in one minute he said the builder didn't put backer board under the tile. So when the house settles the tile cracks with it. Okay now I am angry!!!!!!!!!!! So the one picture is the actual evidence of no backer board. He glued it straight to the wood floor.
I've learned alot. When you build a house watch what your builder is doing. Anyhow the floor is done it looks great and now we have to do something about the tile cracking in our other two bathrooms. Obviously there must not be any backer board either. Luckily it was all paid for by the insurance company which he has been a pain in the neck too! Like my Dad would always say, "At least we got our good health." That is still not satisfying enough for me. I'm going to get some straight up answers from my builder soon.
I ask that you continue to pray for Mrs. Hatcher Braydens teacher, we haven't heard any news yet. And my friend Tammy Pickens she is going through Chemo right now and very sick from it. Plus she has no health insurance and the bills are stacking up. Be grateful for your good health and pray that God will bless those who don't. Have a good week!
