I'm Not Bored.....

I'm not bored, I'm not bored, I'm not bored...!! My first whole week out of school and I'm not bored. In our family, if the kids claimed boredom, B.M. always had work to do: wash walls, wash windows, etc. Walls are done. Too cold for windows, but i think God is laughing at me for worrying about it!

Has definitely NOT been a quiet, easy week starting with Tues. I spent a nice leisurely few minutes talking with Ma while the laundry did its thing. Then went to put clothes in the dryer. I had the first inkling of a mishap when I had to wade in water to get to the washer. Yes, Once again, the drain had overflowed. This is the first time I had to do it all alone but I did get the things moved and the water up, fans on the floor, etc. Oh yes, did I mention that it had, of course, run downstairs in the overloaded storage room? I had most of the shelves unloaded and the water up from that room when the poor old Dad came home from work with all his fingers bandaged (more about that later). He had to do the very heavy stuff and get the rug out. One of the printers he has stashed around leaked ink onto the rug which, subsequently, leaked all over the good carpet as he was taking it out. Yeah, guess who had to clean that too--but it is all gone so that is all good.

Now the nice family room looks like a war zone with all the junk all over drying out. I guess I will begin putting it back soon. I am so sore---. the dad's car has been in the shop and so I have been carless but did take him away EARLY yesterday (in the fog and dark, i might add) to get a ride. I feel better having him not drive anyway!

Anyway, plenty to do. I get to work Mon. anyway. Have a great day.
