DRIP, drip, drip

Within the last 2 weeks, we've had 3 minor/major plumbing problems in our home.  They say it comes in threes (Normally only in celebrity deaths; but for the sake of my sanity, lets say plumbing problems too, ok?)  And I think I'm really ready for it all to be over.  Last week our garbage disposal disconnected from the drain making a lovely mess underneath the counter.  Luckily, it was an easy fix with a flashlight and a wrench. 
Friday night after a lovely night watching the Rangers with friends we came home to a flooding garage.  The 3rd floor toilet split and ran for 6 hours straight, going through 2 floors and flooding the garage.  The dining room ceiling was ruined as well as the brand new wood floors; and not to mention the wood planks we had in the garage that were scheduled to be installed on the 3rd floor in July.  There were tears shed for sure.  Especially since it was midnight and our dining room was full of water.  Insurance adjuster comes tomorrow.  Cross your fingers that it's positive.
And then this morning, on my way to work, I get a call from the neighbor saying there's water coming out of the garage again... so I come back to find the washer is leaking some how.  I don't have the solution on that one yet... I had a conference call at 9 am, so I turned the water off and just left. 

Needless to say, I'm a little tired of the drip.  Please say it's over for a little while?  The dripping?
