Memorial

So we had a death in the "family"recently...our orange beta fish Mani died the week we could not figure out why our heat wasn't working (Note: if you install a digital thermostat make sure you fidn out if it is set for gas or electric heat. There is a little switch you have to flip or your heat won't come on. Too bad that don't tell you that in the instructions...) Alan came down to feed the frogs and Mani and you guessed it, there was Mani laying on the bottom of the bowl. (Alan says the cold killed him, but I still think the frogs ganged up on him) I have since found out that the orange betta fish is one of the most rare, so this is a memorial to our unusual fish Mani-may he enjoy the ride to the sewer!

Crazy update...

Ok, so it only took 3 days of bathing in the sink and we now have working hot water in the shower thanks to your hand man from "HoneyDoIt"! And, thanks to an angel of a mechanic, who I will now refer every person I know to, my truck is running smooth and I didn't have to sell my arm or leg to fix it! It really was one of those everday miracles and I am so grateful to a loving Father who is always keeping and eye on me and for those who listen and lend a hand! We are truely blessed!

Crazy is as Crazy does!

This has been a definte blog day! So my morning started of course with a waking up still tired to my alarm and heading to the shower to help wake me up among other things and much to my dismay as I went to turn on the hot water...the knob kept turning but no water came out! Cold showers are no fun in December so needless to say it was short, and it was a good thing I had straightened my hair cause I was not about to wash it!

So then I get to work and the Physician I am working with this week says he needed a custom brace overnighted yesterday for a HS football player who needs it for the State playoffs this weekend, so I ordered it yesterday and then this morning as I am speaking with the physician I find out he had measured it wrong and I had now ordered it wrong! Blah! A few phone calls, a remeasurement and a 3 hours later I have a new brace being shipped.

I was feeling a little exhausted by the time I left work but was excited as I was going to be able to make the pilates class at the gym. And then about 7 minutes later as my check engine light comes on, (the red blinking light of death)my temperature gauge shoots to the red zone and I smell burning oil...I realize no pilates for me tonight! I ended up home around 8:30pm, which was faster than it would have been if I had to walk, and very thankful for insurance and 24 hour tow services!

I am still not sure how I am going to make it to work tomorrow...but the handyman comes in the morning to try to fix the shower so at least we will have hot water...hopefully!

Anyway, just wanted to share a day in my crazy life!
