This is our house. Although it feels like we've done nothing but clean it since Saturday, it looks the same. Maybe this is why:
Saturday: Instead of unpacking, Jake spent the day cleaning up the tree-sized branch that fell onto our roof.
Sunday: Met with a member of our church leadership, who promptly asks us to speak next Sunday. Sure, we have time to plan for that.
Monday: I washed a load of laundry and then found out that the dryer doesn't receive any power. All laundry is now on hold.
Tuesday: Still can't get the pool cleaner to work. Go to Home Depot and spend more money.
Wednesday: Jake tries to leave for work, but has a dead car battery. He takes my car and I stay at home all day instead of going to the old house to clean it up.
Thursday: Finally with a car again, I head out to the old house, only to discover that I have a flat tire (#5 or 6 in the last several weeks, I've lost count).
Friday & Saturday, what do you have in store for us? Bring it on.

That sounds so crazy!!!! What a dumb week! It was great to see you guys at Walmart... I'm sure that made your week better! If you need an electrician for your dryer... call my husband! :-)
I love your warning. We could all use a dose of real life in the blogosphere once in a while.
I don't think I've ever had a flat tire. How could you possibly get five in a couple months?!! What on earth???
Life has a way of ganging up on us, doesn't it? I had my 2nd knee surgery 23 weeks ago. It didn't go as well as last time, but I hope to be dancing by Nathan's wedding. An old pro like you will have your house looking beautiful in no time at all. Oh I still haven't heard what the baby is going to be and want to do a receiving blanket set for him/her. If it's not a secret, please let me know. :) auntie"m"
