When It Rains... It Pours.... Literally.

I live in the great state of Washington, the state of evergreen trees, Starbucks, Vampires and Native American Werewolves. I also live in a state that rains so much you don't have to refresh your dog's outside waterbowl during the fall/winter/spring. It rained so much last week that some how my chimney got clogged with wet soot. It rained so much last night that my roof couldn't handle life anymore and crapped out and started leaking into my ceiling and about 3 inches away from my 70 flat screen. Chimney sweep came today. Fireplace good. Ty had to come home early from work and grab a friend to tarp the roof. That lasted all of an hour before it got so windy that the cinderblocks that were holding the tarp down started sliding off the roof in a death fall. One of them crashed onto a fish tank that was out side to be cleaned and sold. Not anymore... now there are shards of glass in the grass. While listening to the cinderblocks side across my roof in a sound that can only be compared to a giant sledding down my roof, I ran out to the livingroom with a book and my iPhone to see what it was. I stepped in dog pee because my dumb mutt dogs refuse to go to the bathroom outside because it's wet. So in a fit of rage I slammed down my book which also included my phone. I'm not a weak person... I threw it with some force. And well.... long story short, I broke my phone.I call Ty (who went with his friend to the driving range) and inform him of the cinderblock storm that is rainging around our house.... he tells me it's not a big deal. BAAAAHHHGGGG!! I then was contacted by someone at work to inform me that I will be sent on a tdy trip for a few months. So I go look for my government credit card... can't find it. ANYWHERE. So I call and cancel it and order a new one that will be expidited and be here by tomorrow afternoon. Call work back and tell them.... well that isn't good enough. The trip is emergant and I was to be leaving tomorrow. So now they go to the next person on the list... who might that be? Ty. So now he is leaving tomorrow on MY trip because I am so unorganized I can't handle life. But no worries, work said there is a possibility that I could be going on the trip, just on the 3rd of December. Which is fine. I just can't handle today.... and it's not even 1:30 yet.

Sorry to hear about your awful day. I get stressed and crazy when things like that happen, also. Just don't eat Twinkies.

Is the business trip to somewhere wonderful?

enjoy your Thanksgiving.

LoL, I wish my trip was somewhere awesome, but it is just 2 hours away from home, in Everett. And I've never been a fan of twinkies... lol so it's no big loss to me.

Sounds like a rough day. I'm sorry, sometimes it seems like those days just happen; everything piles up and crashes down all at once. I'm in SW Washington, and it's been raining like crazy all day! But, coming from the Oregon Coast, it takes more than a days rain to concern me.

Hopefully tomorrow will bring something extra-good, to make up for the bad day today.

Take a deep breathe and relax....tomorrow's another day, hopefully a calmer one. Sounds like you have a great sense of humor and that helps many ails. Good bless and take a warm bath! Effie ;) PS Glad no one was hurt!

Starting Over!

Look at the bright side....nobody got hurt, it can all be fixed or replaced.

I hope your luck gets better...often these things occur to allow you the opportunity to relish in the good that comes along. You will look back at this day and have a good giggle!

Oh boy, so sorry to hear that. Hoping the ring re-emerged from before though. I hate those days where it feels like nothing goes right.

Go to sleep before anything else happens and tomorrow will be a better day!! Happy thoughts!
