Angry This should test my better half's support.

At lunch was in the sump room checking a few things, along with some helpers (our cats) who always come and follow every thing I do with my tanks. One must of knocked off the auto top off water supply hose, because when I got home a noticed a wee bit of water in the hall carpet Check the sump room and ...... Well just before I went to clean up the bloody mess, I made a small adjustment to the skimmer. Took a bit before I got back with the steam cleaner and could hear some water trickling and the carpet even more wet. The skimmer wast collector bucket was now over filling all over the friggin place.
Well she's not home yet, so better finish and not touch a bloody thing. I hope she had a good day.

Nah, it means she's perfectly ok with it and is really glad you have a hobby you love. Oh, and sleep in a room tonight where you can lock the door...each of you on different sides. She'll need extra alone time to be happy for you...
