More Water Issues!

Well, we have had yet another water backup issue here in the Townsend household. First, let me assure you that I'm thanking God for it because it could definately mean more remodeling covered by insurance company and I'm praying that the insurance co. will approve this issue as a continued problem from the claim a month ago. Since we just got all of this rain, it's proving that the problem was never fixed. So.....after doing a load of laundry last night, Abby and I heard this horrible gurgling noise in the laundry room and kitchen sink (2 different locations but on the same water line). I ran to the laundry room to see water pouring..and I mean POURING, out of the drain that runs from the washing machine into the wall. Water was just soaking through the floor and then running down the basement wall (in the little utility room). Then, dark gray water filled up in the utility sink. There's so many details that I'll skip to spare you the agony of boredom. Bottom line, I had to call Mr. Rooter to come and out and try to figure this out. Let's just say that the comment out of the guy's mouth was "In 35 years, I've never seen anything like this. Nothing makes sense. It's as though the line from this area is not hooked up to the main septic."
Only God knows...literally...I believe that only God can show the pros how to fix this confusing problem. Meanwhile, as they were roto-rooting the line from within the laundryroom, mud spewed out all over the man and my laundry room floor. Yahooo...I love muddy floors...not really :) Sorry for the sarcasim.
He said he'd come up with a solution, he just needed to sleep on it. I really liked these gentlemen by the way...very downhome, honest kind of folk :)
All of that to say this...Please, please pray that our insurance company will not give us any hassle about considering all of this damage from the continual problem of last month's claim. We need them to reopen the claim and now, we have to get Paul DAvis Restoration back out here to assess the damage. Oh, and also, lots of water has spewed out from under our dishwasher causing damage there too. I can see a big blessing from God though in the sense that the carpet is still not in and if they have to pull up the kitchen and laundry room floor...linoleum then they could fix it all at once...that would be amazing!
Trusting for God's BEST!
