Welcome To My Life

That is exactly the attitiude I think I am meant to have tonight.  It's been a day and a half, and even though I have a TON of things I should be doing right now, I'm sitting here preparing for the next challenge this evening is going to bring me.

Starts off with Emmy.  She had tummy trouble, and what I believe is a pretty harsh teething day for her.  Marcus wasn't here all day so I was going to get a lot of things finished, but NO!  I spent most of the day hanging with her, or rather, her hanging on me in the bjorn. 

Fast Forward a wee bit.  Marcus is home.  The toilet that Byron broke is being replaced.  This is a good thing right?  Well.....

#1 - I stepped on a broken piece that ended up on the ground outside and my foot is STILL hurting and bleeding off and on.  Not fun.

#2 - I was just about to get up and start all the things that need my attention when I thought I'd check out the new toilet.  In all the blood I had forgotten to do that.  First off it doesn't fit over the lino properly because it's a different shape (but that's OK - not too worried, the floor is scheduled for replacement) but the toilet itself is nice.  Ohhhh, little floaties inside from installation.  I flush.....what's that sound?  Water is GUSHING out the back!  Hey!  That's the second time in 3 days!!!  What are the chances?  Pretty good when your feet fill my shoes.

So, frustrated, I sit back down.  then I got a giggle.  Well, it didn't start as a giggle.  I noticed that the yearly ants are back.  I'm watching one walk across the top of my computer monitor, and it falls right off.  Right in front of my eyes, for no apparent reason.  This year, we have stupid ants!  I mean seriously, I have named them the dumbass ants of 2006.  We don't drink, so they didn't get a taste of alcohol from us or anything, they must just be that stupid.  I've never seen an ant fall before.  Not like that anyway.  Hmph, that was the most amusing thing all day!
