Balance starts when you get out of bed

Last night, everything broke

You ever have one of those days, nights and mornings?

Well, you know about the leaky roof. I still haven't gone up there. Too cold and too lazy. Within 24 hours, the DVD in the bedroom broke, the van's check engine light went on and the speedometer stopped working.Then, we noticed that the house's temp never got above 65 degrees yesterday. I thought that Colette was being frugal. TURNS OUT, the furnace is on the fritz! No heat-

We have someone coming at around 10:30. We have sombody else coming by to put a tarp on the top of the house until he can get around to fixing it. I have to tke the car in sometime this week. The furnace for the sun room is still working, so the kids are sleeping there.

Oh yeah, Colette is sick with a cold. Because of Christmas, the house still looks like a bomb went off (stuff laying around everywhere).

Anyway- Bought a new DVD player at Costco. Tried to install it on the TV in the bedroom for about an hour- Gave up becuase the converter we are using on the crappy TV in the bedroon doesnt seem to be working. Installed it on the 20 plus year old beast in sunroom and it worked great.

I am afraid of what else is going to go wrong today. On the plus side, becuase of the Holiday vacation, we are around and able to do the phone calls and wait around for people. On the minus side, its going to cost a lot of money right after the Christmas Holidays.

Bah, Humbug (retro-actively of,course :-)!!
