Okay, this week just SUCKS!!!  My truck is STILL running like crap.  I had Dean look at it and he said it’s a lifter arm that is sticking and making the motor miss.  He was surprised that it was only 1/2 a quart low on oil, for all the noise it was making.  He said he would change the oil and put in a new filter and an additive on Thursday morning.  He put some oil in it and we’ll see how it goes.  He said that if the oil change doesn’t fix it, then I would have to tear the whole engine apart.  Yeah, right!  I need a new vehicle!  :(

Chuck also got his Big truck stuck at the end of the driveway and used mine to get it out and ripped my back bumper and hitch off.  The hitch is broken in half and it now sticks out about 2 feet!  I am going to see if Dean will cut it off for me tomorrow.  My passenger headlight has also been out for a couple months.  Chuck bought the light, but when he went to change it, saw it was more than he wanted to do and so the light has been sitting in my truck for about a month.  I will see if Dean will put that in too.  Here’s hopin I will still have a running truck for a while!

Monday night, Joe said the water wasn’t draining when he took a shower.  I told him don’t worry about it.  Tuesday morning I find that the toilet is backing up into the tub (GROSS) and that the main drain is totally clogged up!  WONDERFUL!!!!!  So, went out and got the power strength stuff and used the whole bottle, STILL CLOGGED!!!!  ARG!!!!  I’ll have to get some more today and hope it works.  Joe took a shower and the whole tub filled up again!  I need a shower and so does CJ, *SIGH*.

I just did the dishes in large bowls.  Dumped the water outside.  Cleaned out the fridge and cleaned all the tupperware.  I need to take the trash out back and burn it, wish the snow wasn’t knee high!  I will do that before I go get the boys from school.  I will probably take them to Brenda’s house so they can get a shower after practice.  They hate showering at the high school, and I don’t blame them!  I may go to her place while they are at practice and shower myself!  LOL!

Since I am whining (it’s my blog, I am allowed) my mudroom SUCKS!!!!  The roof has leaked since it was built and Chuck has tried many times to get it to stop.  WELL, he tried AGAIN in 2007 and it DIDN”T work!!!  He said he’ll have to buy trusses and connect it to the trailer roof to make it a pitched roof instead of a flat roof.  Here is what my mudroom looks like today!  The ceiling is falling down and the floor as ALL my bowls and plastic buckets!!  WWWAAAA!!!!
