(Mark's comments in yellow - 11:59 pm)
Let's see, it's 11:30 p.m. right now and I'm sitting at the edge of my computer chair because it's piled with books, while Mark is using the wet/dry vac in the utility room to vacuum up the remaining three to four inches (more like 3/4 of an inch before any intervention) of water. He hasn't started in the playroom/schoolroom/office area yet, but it's a smaller area so it may not take too long (the carpet & bookshelves in this area got pretty wet - vac got up majority and fans are now working on the rest; got the concrete dry, now for the pad). Mark ran the diapers through one cycle and on the next cycle it never stopped filling up. We're not sure what's happened but he caught it when he was going in there to get Sunny some food (45 minutes ? later). We are thanking God that it didn't happen with me here with the kids all alone tomorrow, because I was breaking from the norm and planning to do laundry tomorrow.
I'm going to see if I can find the culprit that caused the washing machine overflow. Hopefully, we'll be getting to bed before 1! I'm already praying that tomorrow goes okay because we're going to have to close off the playroom, which is where we all spend most of our day and Ace is on restriction from doing anything remotely fun and entertaining except look at books. I think a trip somewhere fun is in order (limited fun for Ace, though)!
Well, the old "InterWeb" says that it is probably a bad water level switch or some junk in an air tube connected the load size knob. If I had to guess, I would guess the junk route. Clothes with pockets+small kids+busy adults=it's likely some junk. Pray for my troubleshooting skills and that I can stay awake at work tomorrow.
