Water Problems in Threes

So, problems usually follow each other in threes. Haven't you heard of this before? Well, for us it usually runs true. Less than two weeks ago I had awakened with water pouring from my ceiling as we realized that the toilet tank of my DH's toilet had cracked. We had a plumber out the next day to change out the toilet with a long list of other things we needed looked at. The end result of that was (1) a new toilet for my DH, (2) a non-operable sink in my own bathroom while a new sink is on order. I still am waiting for that to be delivered for pickup and I need the faucet, and now...(3) a water heater that is on its last legs.
