Apparently, I have some Peeps who like to read my blog...who would have thunk it....I AM A STAR??!! : )
Well I got told by Chantal that she was sick of seeing my last blog title, and that I had better get BLOGGING......and then JILL TOLD ME TODAY....that she was going to.......inflict bodily harm on me....unless I changed it up....so here I am under duress writing this blog entry!! HAHAHAHA
So last night as I was cleaning up, I noticed that my rubber boots were in the porch and taking up space. So I picked them up...opened the basement door (aka Nick's cleaning area) and tossed them down into the basement.....as I let them fly out of my hand....I noticed large amounts of water all over the place. Well I was like ahhh F*&%, etc etc etc......and I probably could have written a profanity dictionary.
As I was using my alternative vocabulary, Nick of course was in the shower......and screaming...STEPH WHAT IS IT...STEPH STEPH..... I however was not responding to him as I was having a FIT....screaming....etc.
So then upon getting on my crocks and proceeding down into my basement I discovered that there were large amounts of water SHOOTING....out of my hotwater heater. I am not a plumber, or a plumber apprentice...but I gathered that this was not good.
Next Nick jumps out of the shower and runs...with a towel downstairs ( it was too small of a towel) and checks it out. And my worst fears were realized WE NEED A NEW HOT WATER HEATER. FRICK.
So Nick who is a burner mechanic ( aka furnace/ heating/ hotwater heater installer GUY) can fix this. But he cannot fix it tonight, which means no shower for me tomorrow....( DOUBLE FRICK)
So I got up this morning....and the hair was looking terrible......and there was no shower in SIGHT..... Triple FRICK.
So tonight Nick and i will have the pleasure of installing a HOT water heater together....EXCELLENT....if this doesn't send us to divorce court I don't know what will.

You make me laugh!
J.
I laughed out loud when I read..."I am not a plumber, or a plumber apprentice...but I gathered that this was not good." You are hysterical Steph! I was so happy to see a different title! YAY for blogging peer pressure! You made my night! Are you coming tomorrow?!?
oh, the trials of a homeowner... ugh. I have been there, and now I am in the throngs of "car" owner. You know, when you think you have repaired everything possible on your "beater", and then another hose lets go. $300.... this only happens after you have beat it around your head that you will give the old car another year...instead of buying another "second" car. You decide you will pay the $500-$600 to fix up the car for the safety.... and then the breaks go, the transmission hose... ugh... I hear ya... you have had bad luck with your house. When will it end. It doesn't. Its goes from the house, to the car, to the pet, to the yard..to the kids... I hear ya
YOUR PEEPS are still not impressed with you blogging (or lack there of) GET BUSY!!!
