Most Wonderful Time of the Year?

When I talked to Angela yesterday during the day, I sensed in her voice things were not going well.

She had been doing lots of work around the house for the Christmas season, wrapping presents, decorating, etc. As a result, she overdid it and her back had been bothering her a lot. So much that I had to stop on my way home and buy her some medicine, because I am the best husband around. So as I was getting out of my car, standing in a snow covered parking lot, in the freezing cold, my cell phone rings, and she said, "never mind I found something in the medicine chest." UGH, I wen in anyway and bought myself a "Chunky" brand candy bar for my wasted effort.

Then I got home and Angela mentioned that there was water running down into the basement from under the sink area again, see previous posts for details. Went down in the basement and only saw water when dishwasher was on. So we called "Todd", yes that Todd, the fix it guy she goes bonkers over because he is sooooooooooo handy fixing things, makes me sick the way she talks about him. Todd and Corey pulled it out today and it sounds like the whole bottom fell out, so now we need a new dishwasher, UGH #2

While Todd was there he also looked at the toilets and they all need new "innards". He will have to come back later and fix that problem. UGH 3#, I am wondering if Angela is feeding him, he seems to take a longer than normal time to fix stuff when food is around.

Finally, my sweet baby doll mentioned that the "service engine soon" was on in her car. So we got in both cars, I drove hers, and that warning light and every other warning light came on, so I knew it would be $$$$$. Well Deke has not found the problem, which means it is more $$$$ UGH #4.

Now they are calling for 1" to 3" more snow tonight, all this week I have been getting up early for work, why do these classes happen on the coldest, snowiest days of the year, UGH #5.
