The Ceiling Has Fallen

Really!! I was sitting on the sofa minding my own business when a loud crashing sound erupts from the garage. Seems a section of ceiling decided to land on my dryer and freezer. Hubby and I looked at it and he said he had wanted to take a nap this afternoon. So I told him it would still be there later.
So, he's napping. I did work on sweeping up some of the insulation that came down with the ceiling.
Anybody else's house falling apart?

Oh my goodness!
Thank goodness no-one was underneath it when it fell!
I love your philosophy - it will be there to clear up later!
My house is not falling apart yet. My world is in a bit of a turmoil but that's positive as it had been a bit stationary of late!

Uhm....
can I pass on that?
I'll get back to you in a few months (did I say months? ) and let you know whether it is/was the right direction or not

Sorry to hear that your house is falling apart. I had problems just over a year ago when my electricity box just blew up. Luckily it didn't set the house on fire! The house needed a total rewire, which was really disruptive. It seems there is always something that needs doing in this house!

Anything with electricity kind of scares me. My husband will replace stuff and run new wires, but he's not an electrition so I wonder how safe it is. Nothing has gone out or started a fire though.
I'm sure that was a pain to have to rewire the entire house. Did it take long?

This happened to my nephew's house that he lives in with his mom and step dad. My former sister in law was sitting in a chair reading a newspaper when all of a sudden half the livingroom ceiling came crashing into her lap! She screamed at Gordon, her hubby, who came running to find her covered in plaster and paint.

Yes, ours is my son started to remodel,
he has found areas in our roof ready to
fall down. Our house flooring is falling
down and needs to be jacked up. I guess
we all have some work that needs to be
done unless you have a new house.
Have a blessed day.
