It's Pouring

So it pouring in more ways than one right now.

Laying in bed this morning, I could hear the steady sound of rain, which we need so bad, so that was good.  Terry was up to take a shower, he was taking Beka and Nolan to see the Aggies basketball game and Matt was going to sleep all day and I had the Christmas tree still to take down.  So a good day was planned by all.

In my last peaceful moments laying in bed, Nolan comes in, to say that water was dripping in the pantry....since Terry was still in the shower, down I go to check things out.  And yes, dripping was an understatement.  Nolan is so good, he helped me quickly get stuff off the top shelves of the pantry, towels on the floor.  We got some big pots, and I mean my huge turkey roasting pots, and started to try and figure out the best place to catch the water.  We can hear the water in the wall, sounds like the rain coming in or something.  So I decided to punch a couple of holes to release some of the pressure we can see in the ceiling, which is a little saggy.  Well then the water really began to flow.  Me catching water in the pots, Nolan dumping the water out.  Come to find out when Terry finishes showering, the shower valve is completely open inside the shower wall and water is just pouring out the valve.  Terry gets the water off at the main line, we finish cleaning up water.

Then during all the commotion, Matt says he is feeling hot and has a headache.  What a terrible mom.  I hadn't stopped all this morning to check on him and sure enough he had a 101.6 fever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  So I get dry clothes on and off to the ER we go at 9 a.m.  Matt is now back on the third floor with all our favorite nurses.  Still not sure what infection is going on, since nothing has been found yet with all the tests.  So it looks like we will be having a great weekend at the hospital as they continue to rule things out.  Right now he is on iv fluids and fever reducers.  So hopefully we can get this under control by tomorrow and we can head back home. 

As I always say, there is never a dull moment in our house, ever.

Praying for stabilization, in all things.  Thanks for your continued prayers!  Love to you all.
