are you kidding me???

that is what i have been asking myself since mark left town YESTERDAY!! seriously, he wasn't even gone 4 hours before the bathtub wouldn't drain and the toilet was gurgling in the kids bathroom. we got through that crisis by calling my brother in law {christman} who called his plumber who assured me all would be fine until he could come and fix the problem the following day. relieved that all was going to be ok, olivia and i sat down to watch a movie before she went to bed and we noticed some birds chirping away. they were not outside in the trees where they belong, nope they were in the chimney. as the movie went on they got louder until one ended up in the fireplace, flapping it wings like crazy!! by this time it was late and i was not about to call christman again, so i just prayed this little fellow would not get out of the fireplace and went to bed. tonight the bird is back and crazier than ever. the bathtub and toilet are fixed, but tomorrow i will be calling a chimney sweep to help with operation tweet tweet! all this and mark is only been gone not even 24 hours. i think it is going to be a long 12 days!!

bless your heart! being home alone with kids is tough enough, but to be bombarded with home repairs and animal envasions would put me over the top. i'm proud of you for just going to bed!
