Three things I have learned over the last week (the hard way):
1. Sugar in your coffee is not good for your teeth. (Yep, cavities.)
2. The washing machine has two valves for the water, cold and hot. (split line to the washing machine)
3. My new neighbors are awesome. They were right there to help turn the water off.
What I already knew:
My brothers are pretty darn wonderful. The one that lives close by came within an hour to help me figure out what was going on and will be back to help with repairs. And he didn't laugh at me...well maybe a little smile.
