Do Over

We want a do over of today. Nothing about today was worth getting up for. Work was mediocre, it was super hot outside, and it felt all day like we had a bad case of the Tuesdays.

Today we decided that we need to lower the price on our home since it has now been 60 days and no offers. So we were stressing about strategy and how to do that appropriately. There are layoffs at Micron, which THANKFULLY doesn't directly affect us anymore because Craig doesn't work there now, but we're worried about what 1000+ jobs lost in the area is going to do to the housing market.

We have a toilet that flooded, so we are thinking that we need to call a plumber.

One of our sprinkler zones is not working properly, so we have to manually turn it on. This morning we turned it on and left for work, forgetting to turn it off. So this evening we came home to a flooded out basement...water everywhere! Thank goodness CJ & I bought 50 towels when we first got married because we have used every single one to sop up the soggy carpet. (towel story for another day)

I picked up what I thought was a leaf on our carpet and ended up being a slimey slug (EWEWEWEWE!)

After spending the better part of the evening on 'disaster cleanup', I went to the fridge to get a soda. Last week we stocked our mini fridge on the back porch with tons of sodas. Well something went horribly wrong with either too hot heat or too cold fridge because one of my precious Diet Dr. Bolds (Generic Dr. Pepper) had a giant explosion and all of our pops are bloated and there is a giant mess. I think I'll clean that up tomorrow.

Seriously...what next? There are at least 30 minutes left in this day and I hope that nothing else explodes or floods before I get to bed. Oh and I will probably have a strange nightmare about a slug tonight.

Happy Tuesday!

Oh no! What a bad day! I have days like that and I'm always baffled as to why it all happens at once. I guess it's better to get it over with instead of ruining several days?

Love ya!
