Question: Can a day get any worse?




Answer: Yes! Ok so if you read the last posting you will know that Thursday night was not good. Friday started out ok however rainy it was. We had a swamp in the front and back yards because it rained ALL day long. So after picking Marie up from school we decided to stay home for the rest of the night. I checked my voice mail and there was a message from our Realtors office saying that they had scheduled a showing for Saturday between 3:30-4:30.

Happy to have a showing I realized I needed to get the entire house back in order after having the carpet cleaned and also get the house smelling more like a house. So I have some carpet sprinkle and got to work. I had most of the living room carpet vacuumed and started working on the rug. Now mind you at this point I have the rest of the house left to vacuum. Well the motor on the vacuum decides to quit working. So I am stuck with and entire house that I have sprinkled powder on and no vacuum to clean it with.

Luckily we have good neighbors who were able to loan me their vacuum. So now I sit in a pretty clean house. I still have to make up my bed and finish cleaning my office. As I clean my office Marie is in here messing it up so hopefully I will be able to gt it clean in time for the showing.

So today, Saturday, is going better. I have to say the one high point of my day yesterday happened while I was trying to close my eyes for an hour. Someone rung the doorbell and I ignored it because the last thing I wanted to do was deal with any people. Well when I went to leave to pick Marie up from school there were a dozen roses on the front porch. I could not for the life of me think why I would be getting flowers. Well I have to say I have the best husband in the world. He remembers things that for the life of me I could never remember. Ten years ago yesterday JJ and I started dating. I know he remembers these things, but I never expected roses. It was the one big thing of my day however I cried the entire way to pick Marie up because I have such a wonderful husband.
Well I must get going and attempt to get this office cleaned. Hopefully today will be better than the past few. If anything the sun is shining so that is a start.
Love to all.

That is SO SWEET!!! The roses are beautiful and I'm sure made up for the carpet stress. :-)
