what a week!!!!

Hi folks!! Well this has been a week for the record books!  Tuesday night I went to bed and thought I was getting a head start on laundry by starting a load as I went to bed.  Then at 6am my husband woke me up.  There was about 2in of water covering our bedroom floor.  He assumed our bathroom had flooded somehow.  Then I went into the living room to find more water.  As the tears started to flow I heard the washer STILL FILLING!! The washer had malfunctioned and never stopped filling all night long!!  After the shock settled in we called our insurance and began the claim.  Let me stop here and put in a plug...So far we love State Farm!! They have been really easy to work with and so quick!  Ok Ill continue...Service Master came out by 9am and began the process of sucking out the water and removing the damaged wood laminte.  SO.....they ripped out 100% of our floors and our kitchen cabinets will have to be removed soon!  Then on top of all that I spent all day Thursday in the hospital.  I became really dizzy Thursday morning and after a ton of tests and several hours later they determined I had vertigo and impacted sinus!  But through it all God has blessed us! So many people like our awesome neighbors (yay Dawn Marie and James), our Pastor and his family (Jacks fav skinny jeans are clean and Jarrod now knows my name is Adams-Greenaway), The Shermans (thanks so much for keeping the kids in the midst of meltdowns) and my wonderful work "family" have stepped up to help us out!  To all of you...Thanks! Youre awesome!!!  God is so faithful and I know this is going to turn out to be something great!  So needless to say I havent gotten much sewing done! AND to make matters worse all my beautiful Amy Butler and Heather Bailey fabric was ruined :(  But its ok that just means another trip to Chattanooga for me!! Ill post pics soon! Dont forget to check out my etsy....thecherrystreetshop.etsy.com!!!
