We finally got some sun so we went to the dog park and then grilled at a friend’s house, which was nice. Of course, Sunday returned to the pouring rain (but it’s sunny now since it’s a weekday while we’re all in the office as it tends to usually be:)

I discovered my cats had fleas this weekend…after I treated one for ear mites, no less. So now both have been treated and are getting flea combed like crazy. I also started washing all the linens in the house again. Today, even though you didn’t ask, was work work work and then spreading borax all over the house to kill any possible eggs. Ick ick ick. Otherwise, the weekend consisted of Wiley’s phone running out of money because it thought he was in Serbia, a girls’ night Friday night, and running on a trail for the first time. My arse, her biscuit’s are burnin’.

Thanks for the sympathy all. I guess that is just the “joys of home ownership” =) And YES, it could be much worse! I’m counting my blessings!

Wookie, Minsey’s is one of my faves. Nice choice! A night can’t be all bad with good pizza.

MarkM, I feel for you. Every time something in my house goes to hell, I swear at all my friends who encouraged me to buy rather than continue renting.

And Logta, I think you know what I did Sunday, but Friday was BSG with my younger brother and Saturday was Chinese and “Cloverfield” with my GF.

Happy freakin Monday all!

Wow, sounds like we are having the same occurrence of Murphy’s Law! We’ve had a string of breakdowns at our house of one form or another. A few weeks back our sump pump died and we only found out when we went downstairs and the carpet went “squish” when we stepped on it. After the restoration company was done dealing with all that, we had to replace the carpet. While dealing with all that, our side-by-side refrigerator stopped dispensing water. After that repair man got done, we had to replace a fan motor and dispose of all the food in the refrigerator that had frozen solid and wasn’t good anymore! (FYI – Frozen eggs don’t fry up really well). Saturday we had the carpet installers come and that turned out really well so we almost have our house back to normal. What could be next?!?! =)
