OK, you are all off the hook . . . for now!

Apparently the insurance adjuster stole the piece of carpet. The reasoning was this: they need to determine the quality of the carpet so that they know how much it will cost to replace because of the water damage. So they took a piece from behind the couch (out of sight) to test. The problem with this reasoning is this: there was no water damage. The only damage to the carpet is from them cutting a hole out of it. So they have to replace an entire carpet because they wanted to know how much it would cost to replace an entire carpet. Whatever, we are off the hook! And more importantly, it means we do not have a friend who cuts holes in our carpeting! Yay!
