Thirteen Things that drove me nuts! 1. We paid off the car last month, and the "Service Engine Soon" light came on and we lost power steering. Knew something would happen though, that's the law of paying off your vehicle. 2. The electric company mistakenly turned our power off yesterday and I had to go yell at them to get it back on, the tech did not believe me that I should not be on his "list" to shut it off. And now the A/C or the furnace doesn't work because of it. 3. We are trying to move our in-laws to our town, but I could not go because of the car and because I can't speak. I have laryngitis. 4. We are camping this weekend, but even though Donnie is on vacation, he can't get the stuff together because he is busy constantly until Friday morning. This means I have to do it, while sick, and busy. And I hate camping, I don't know what we need. 5. I enrolled Cody in online public school, but our two schools don't agree on the paperwork, so he may have to start in October instead of September. (but they supply the computer and printer!) I have to run around today trying to fax and print things without either machine.Can't work it out on the phone because I have no voice. 6. Tuesday we went to Minneapolis to drop one kid at the airport in the am and pick another up in the evening. LONG wait in between. Wasted a whole day in the cities. (well, it wasn't a waste, we just didn't get the stuff we needed done at home done.) 7. Everywhere we went Donnie drove the wrong way first. Weird because he is incredible with directions and finding places. And I do mean "everywhere we went" he went the wrong way first. 8. Our dryer is broken. Hope to get that fixed soon. And our freezer doesn't freeze ice cream but does keep meat frozen. 9. Two of our vehicle windows are broken. One from a bathroom sink, and one from a rock off a gravel truck. 10. Our roof leaks in windy storms. Won't be fixing that any time soon, but need to. 11. Sam is teething and has a cold so he can't breathe, is in pain, and nurses. We are not getting enough sleep especially when he has to open his mouth to breathe, but to keep hold of his food supply he has to use his teeth. I woke up more than him with my scream! (And I am positive I will NEVER get a piercing on my chest area thingies!) 12. We are missing one of our hamsters. It has been missing for a couple of weeks. Imagine when we do find it...... 13. While in Minneapolis on Tuesday, someone dinged our car with his door, while we were in the car. Didn't even acknowledge it. I wanted to go all "Lois" on him, but Donnie wouldn't let me.
I know once I post this, I will have a dozen more, but I struggled to get 13. My brain is stuffed up. Next week will be a surprise with a surprise!

Great post. I hope you have a better weekend, than the week you have had. It will be fun...no worries!
This has not been your week. I hope the little one is feeling better. I remember when my nursing baby got teeth!
My TT is about my Summer travels.
well..umm..it can only get better now right?
Okay, if you hate camping why are you going? I hate it too and refuse to go. That simple. If you want to go take the kids and I'll see you when you return. Okay, great list of vents and I hope you feel better. Tell your hubby that you should take a sick child camping... Have a great TT. :)
I mean you shouldn't take a sick child camping. Sorry about that.
I cannot imagine that big family and a broken dryer. God bless you! :)
Everything breaks at once, doesn't it? I swear! Here's hoping your luck turns!
Happy, er ... Repaired TT!
I hope your trip goes well!

EEEEEEEK! NO FUN! I dont know how hot it is over in your neck of the woods, but I'd be roasting here if the AC was off. No fun at all!

Hope you feel better and so does the nurser....biting hurts!
great list!
Let me see, what kind of advice can I give you - mother to daughter? Welcome to my world sweetie - like mother like daughter - except my electric didn't get shut off and my dryer works. Keep your chin up - this too shall pass - oh and keep sending me grandchildren, I'm loving it.
Are you SURE this is "your" week to go camping? Ummmm.....seems like it's almost begging for trouble, girl! LOL
