Welp, it's happening.

We are getting our sewer tiles replaced.

They scoped into our lines with a tiny camera on Thursday with the diagnosis that our line is completely collapsed 45-ish feet out, which explains why every time we have it snaked out, it plugs back up within a week or two. (sigh . . .)

Then Friday they came to mark all the areas on the yard where it will be torn up (3 places) and this morning, any minute now, they will show up to do the work. Should be a crazy day, but I will be so happy when it's done so we can sell this darn house, even though they have given us an estimate of $2-3k to do this sewer line work. (*sob*)

Can I go curl up in a ball, wish this wasn't happening, wake up to find that it was just a dream? That would be nice but probably won't happen, will it?

They showed up right as I finished this entry. Then, below, they begun by taking our fence out. I shot this picture through Noah's window in his room. You should see the huge hole we have right now. I'm taking pictures and will show later. Fun, fun. Not.
