So after work today I started some laundry, got the kids in the bath, dressed and comfortable. Everyone was settled in...
I went downstairs to switch the laundry out, and came back upstairs and walked into a big puddle of water in my kitchen... Literally not one spot of crappy lenolium ( I have the most horrible 60's floor design ever!) was not covered in water...
I noticed my dishwasher was POURING water. I grabbed every towel I had on hand and put it on my floor. I could not believe this happened in a matter of minutes!
I decided to take pictures after I had most of the water cleaned up, but just to document this horrible experience and to of course vent and complain to everyone on my blog... :)
After I used about 10 towels on my floor, I had to hand scoop out the water from inside my dish washer, and use massive amounts of recieving blankets. ( I have a good 100 of these!) I finally got all the water out of the dishwasher, and off my floor... UNTIL... I went downstairs to throw those towels in the laundry to be washed I noticed the water had been leaking through the floors to my downstairs. Thankfully its not a finished downstairs so I basically had to mop up the puddle down there too, but WOW! What a day... Can we just hope that tomorrow doesnt bring me anything worse?? And lets hope my dishwasher is just clogged and I dont have to purchase a brand new one!!! ugh! I need to go to bed!

I'm sorry about your dish washer Audrey - that sucks way bad! I would be venting to say the least as well lol.
yuck. i can recall this happening at the apartments when the cleaning people used dishsoap TO CLEAN IT. im sorry how frustrating i wonder what happened to go through your floor we just got a new washer because we lost the pump so it drained to the basement blugh. what a mess!
Oh boy, been here done this and it's no fun. Hopefully you don't have to buy another one, that is no fun either. Good luck with it!
