Today I will complain.

Today I will complain because I can.

Today I will be a big, fat baby and whine.

Today I will tell you how everything has fallen to shit in a matter of one week.

What?

You don't believe me?!

------------------------------------------

Ryan's gas guzzling tanker messes up.

Tanker goes to the shop.

Ryan drives his mom's car.

------------------------------------------

I put a load of clothes in the washer.

I go back inside to finish doing my daily chores.

I walk out into the garage (where our washer and dryer are) to get the bathroom cleaner.

The garage is flooded.

Carpet soaked.

Washing machine is overflowing.

It isn't even a year old.

This is the only time I have ever been thankful that my laundry room isn't in my house.

The Sears man is coming to fix it... on TUESDAY between 1pm-5pm.

Any bets on when he actually shows up?

------------------------------------------

We gets Ryan tanker back.

He is so happy, the night he got it back he just sat in it for 30 minutes.

That is not a joke.

------------------------------------------

My Jeep decides to start smoking and leaking stuff at a rapid pace.

Come to find out, I need a new radiator.

Dad is on the search today and I will hopefully have my Jeep back by tomorrow or Wednesday.

------------------------------------------

My sister came and picked us up (we have no car remember) and took us to the pool.

We were there for about 15 minutes and all hell breaks loose.

I swear I thought there was a tornado coming.

I rushed the girls into the car.

We were still dripping wet from the pool.

We got all the way back home when we realize that we don't have Caroline's shoes.

I spent the next 30 minutes calling around trying to find the lifeguard to get Caroline's shoes for me.

I found a way to get up with her.

Shoes are safe.

------------------------------------------

We got home from the pool.

During my frantic phone calling, I realized my house was hotter than 10 feet of hell.

Ryan breaks it to me that during the 45 minutes I was gone, our air has decided to quit.

Mother.

So we are gathered in my bedroom camping out with a classy window unit waiting for the air man to come.




------------------------------------------

No washer, no car, no air.

But I'm thankful for the little things...

Thankful for the fact that at least we are redneck enough to have a spare window unit just laying around.

Holler!

------------------------------------------

***** EDITED TO ADD:  At approximately 12:07 PM, we have air!  YAYYYY!

***** EDITED TO ADD: At approximately 12:29 pm, we have a car and the part for my car has been ordered.  Yayyy!

THINGS ARE LOOKING UP Y'ALL!!!

Yay for the updates!! Our ac has been acting up too. Already had it worked on... But it's still not running at full capacity. It would cost a very pretty penny to if it completely... Maybe soon. For now we too have a window unit and a box fan set up. Although scary, I'm glad those storms came through and cooled things down a bit. :)

Also, I've added you as a bloglovin fave now... That way I won't miss your posts anymore. I thought I had already done that, but apparently not because I have lots of catching up to do. ;)
