Some kinda morning

First the toilet in our master is leaking. C is late for a meeting in Melbourne, but messes w/ it a little to try and fix it. As he is close to running late, I help him out to his car where we discover what looks like a broken sprinkler head spewing water everywhere. But then we remember w/ all the rain we turned the sprinklers off...which sadly means the water main to our house is busted! So now C is 30 mins late, has to dig up the meter box thing in the yard and manually shut off the water. Thank god for his expertise from his last job working new plumbing installs for a residential company. So now there's no water and I still have to shower, brush my teeth, put in contacts, etc. My parents live 5 mins away, so I pack up to go over there to get ready. Get in the shower, water is heating up, go to pull the thing so the bath becomes a shower and nothing...the level or whatever is broken and it won't switch to shower mode. So I end up w/ a luke warm, 5 second, inch of water "bath" and an attempt to wash my hair before giving up, getting dressed and heading off to work.

Moral of the story, I should check my horoscope for today b/c it must say something about staying away from water!

Seriously, TGIF!

Re: Some kinda morning

  • Wow! You have had some kinda morning! There is nothing worse (to me anyway) then a stressfull morning. It totally sets your mood for the rest of the day. I have to admit though that the fact that your parents shower wasn't working property either made me laugh. When it rains it pours, huh!! I really hope your day gets better!!!
  • Holy crap Shana!!!  What are the odds of all of those things happening in one morning???  I gotta think your day can only get better from here!  Is your landlord taking care of the water situation at your house today?  I hope it's a fixed by the time you get home!
  • Oh, that sucks.  I hope your day & weekend gets better.  Like pp, that stuff just makes me grumpy all day.
  • Sorry for your rough morning.  At least it's Friday I guess!
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • Aw, that sucks!!!

    We could've use your hubby's expertise a couple months ago. One of the storms made our sprinkler system go crazy and they were running ALL WEEKEND LONG! We were out of town in Miami!!

    YEA the water bill was HUGE!!!! So good thing you were able to shut it off!

  • Goodness - what a mess! I'd be grumpy all day from something like that too. Good luck getting everything straightened out.
  • Oh you poor thing!  I hope your day has gotten better.  Just think...a few more hours until the weekend!

    And hey...can you please put a ticker in your siggy?  I need to know how far along you are.  Stick out tongue

    I tried to do the ticker once and it was super small and all jacked up. I don't think I had the right code or something. I will have to try again. What site did you use? Ticker Factory?

    And, as of tomorrow, we are 13 weeks and officially in trimester #2!! I am so excited.

    Just looked thru all the new pics of Rylie and seriously, I don't know how you ever put the camera down. Everything she does and every face she makes would have me snapping pics constantly. Too much fun!

  • Congrats on being in the 2nd tri!!!  I know what a great feeling that is!

    I use Lilypie for my ticker.
