Okay, this is yet another sucky week!  *SIGH*  On Saturday night it got VERY cold and come Sunday morning we had NO WATER!!  yup, our water froze AGAIN!!  This SUCKS!!!!!  Chuck go VERY sick and couldn’t do anything about the water till Tuesday.  Everyone needed a shower badly!  I melted snow and washed Joe’s hair, CJ didn’t want to do that.  I melted snow to wash the dishes and let me tell you snow is DIRTY!!!! YUCK!!!!!  GROSS!!!!!  I flushed the toilet with the water that collects in the mudroom from the leaky ceiling.  But, I could only flush once a day!  GROSS!!  Of course Chuck had diarrhea REALLY bad so double GROSS!!!!  I start my period on Sunday and have NO WATER!!  ARG!!!!!!!

So, Tuesday we get the water going around 2pm to find out that the sewer line is blocked/froze and EVERYTHING backed up into the tub!!!!  We were all so excited about getting showers and now this!  ARG!!!!   SO, I take a rag, set the plug in the tub and use a rag and bucket and ring out the rag into the bucket and do that again and again till the tub is empty.  I then bleach the heck out of it and scrub it up.  I keep it plugged up and Chuck and I grabbed a shower and just let it fill up but at least we were clean!

This morning the tub did drain but it took a LONG time!  I cleaned it and plugged it back up and at 6am Joe got a shower and then at 6:30am CJ got one though he HATED to stand in Joe’s dirty water, *SIGH*!  They went to school clean and smelling nice.  I can’t say that much about my house, it smells like a giant outhouse!!!!  I got a snake from Brenda and we have to get under the trailer and unscrew the lid and nasty water exploded all over Chuck, EEEWWW!!!  We put the snake down and the jam is REALLY bad, we have no clue what it is.  We tried and tried to push it out.  We thought maybe it’s frozen so we poured 2 large stock pots of boiling water down and gave it 30 minutes and I went out and unscrewed the thing, got blasted with GROSS water and tried again, NOTHING!  It still won’t budge!  ARG!!!!  So, right now I have water boiling on the stove again and I will keep trying till we get it.  We have no money to have someone come and chew it out.

I am so frustrated and depressed.  My stomach hurts all the time and I just feel like crying!  Chuck and the boys are leaving soon for wrestling practice.  The school is done but the little guys go for another 2 months.  Chuck makes them go.  It’s for kids till they are in 6th grade.  But there are tournaments on the weekends so Chuck has them going here to practice.  The tournaments are on Saturdays and they have to miss bowling for them and they HATE that!  *SIGH*  CJ SO doesn’t want to do it and this causes more stress!  It wouldn’t be so bad if I wasn’t such a conflict avoider and the self designated peace maker!  But, I need the quiet time as they leave at 5 and get back at 8.

CJ’s computer was acting up and he spazzed when I told him I would reformat it, he said he had too much stuff he wanted to save.  So, today while he was at school, I did it anyway and saved all his stuff, or at least I THOUGHT I did.  I guess I accidentally saved a shortcut folder and not the actual folder so EVERYTHING in his folder is gone.  He threw himself on his bed crying!!!  Dear Lord!!  I guess he had his conversations saved that he and his ex-girlfriend had on Instant Messenger.  I told him I didn’t do it on purpose and I thought I saved everything.  I will NEVER make that mistake again but I HATE learning them this way.  I had no idea he was reading those, in a way I’m glad they are gone.  He HAS to get over her and reading those isn’t helping!  So, let’s add some MORE stress!

A friend of mine wrote me today to tell me she was off to the vet to have her oldest and dearest cat put down! :(   She’s had him for 10 years!   They think he got into poison but not sure.  She had him at the vet but I guess there was no saving him.  She can’t have kids so her cats are her children so this is VERY hard on her and it just breaks my heart!  I remember how hard it was to have a chinchilla put down and to watch Saphira die, just horrible!  So, my tummy didn’t like that either.

SUCKS!!!!!!
