It never rains, but it pours…
So, the boy has the stomach flu (he’s feeling a little better today…yay!). Then a series of things started going wrong in the house. Expensive things. Big things. Things where I may have to wait days and days to get a repairman…which is really bad when one of those things is the fridge.
Seriously, yesterday, the fridge stopped cooling, and started leaking. (On to the hardwood floors, because I’m an idiot and put hardwoods in the kitchen.) Then, the ovens started freaking out, flashing error codes, then finally settling on beeping every 20 seconds and flashing F7. Then one toilet stopped working, and another sprung a leak that will require me replacing everything but the potty itself.
Apparently, I’ve done something to anger the house gods.
eeegaads!
So shitty, sorry to hear that. I don’t know what we’d do if that many things needed repairing or possibly replacing at once! Good luck with getting thing sorted.
sounds like a poltergeist to me.
Good gosh, sorry all that crap went wrong at once! sounds like you need an excorcists over there or something
Small cups of Best dark-chocolate cocoa placed up high away from recovering Tiptoes, with an occasional offering of brandy in place of cocoa, and perhaps you can enlist the aid of the Wee Free Men to roust out the polterguys!! A thorough smudging of the house with sage-sticks?? A few tasteful jewels, purloined from Winifred’s stash as ‘back rent’, with the loan of a few zombies, could encourage the BadLuck Squatters to move on, don’cha think?
All my best ‘uplifting’ thoughts to you all, and may this mini-mudslide soon depart from your lives!!
Heh, and then the doorknob fell off…as though I weren’t allowed to leave…it’s been weird.
Yeah…fortunately, I was able to plead my way into getting a tech out here for the fridge…but, a few hundred dollars later, and the fridge still isn’t cold, so I’m a little worried…
Especially since the door knob came off when I tried to go out the front door…
If only I knew a priest who did plumbing…
All good ideas.
