    Angry It's raining ... its pouring!

    Everything in the world is BROKEN!

    My new used stove that I bought two months ago lost it's bottom element. We are snowed in so we made batches of cookie dough to do our baking and fabulous, the stupid stupid stove won't heat up!!!!

    My washing machine got all plugged up and spewed forth in the basement.

    My darling daughter told me she emptied the kitty litter and DIDN"T so the cats pooped in the laundry room. So not only do we have poop, we have poop floating on the flood!

    My youngest daughter has LOST her snowpants. How precisely does one lose snowpants that were very much present on Friday?


    I think I am going to scream now. My poor children are tiptoeing around because Mommy's head is EXPLODING!!!!!

    OK, this was how I kept swimming....
    (love that !) ....

    Rachel left her snowpants at her father's (wouldn't he think of that with 2 feet of snow on the ground?) Borrowed a pair from the neighbor.

    I broiled my gingerbread cookies very carefully and am considering attempting to freeze the sugar cookie dough, The cookies turned out good!

    I am just not going to use my washer til I can get to the store and get some Liquid Plumber. I have fixed this problem before and can fix it again,

    At least the minor flood made the cat poop easier to pick up!

    And because the weather is so bad, I have the day off tomorrow!

    And just think---at least the mini-flood did the job of washing the cat poo off the floor.

    There's that silver lining, LOL. I've had many days like that myself. It's just the fact that they seem to pile up until you want to explode. I love the Dori solution, LOL. I'm gonna have to remember that next time I start total meltdown here....Keep Swimming!

    No snowpants lost here, but there are a few pair of swim trunks and a snorkel lurking around somewhere in this house, LOL. How do you loose a snorkel?
