The title doesn't refer to my aforementioned money problems. Though those are fun. I mean, really. My heating bill was massive last month and the house is freezing. My shampoo is sitting on the bathroom window sill and it is literally frozen. Between class and student teaching and my birthday dinner, I've hardly been home twenty minutes this week. My husband is avoiding my calls and my emails about practical details (he has not paid the car payment for his car this month, which my name is also on....) did not wish me a happy birthday (nor is it a surprise, but still), and I have to teach a lesson tomorrow on a topic I know nothing about. I have done dishes, not had enough time to clean up the mess husband left when plastering Sunday afternoon (I cleaned up after myself when I spent the last 2 days priming and painting, but he works 3 hours one Sunday and forgets how to use a broom or vacuum), and am pretty much out of clean underwear. I should be asleep right now, because I have to get up in another 7 hours.
But the climax of my whole evening- and the connection to the title- my toilet now floods the bathroom and leaks through the living room ceiling upon flushing!!!!
I was looking forward to spending a few uninterrupted hours here tomorrow afternoon since I don't have to stay after school or go to class. Hours I could wash my clothes, wash my dishes, clean up after the remodelling, run (which I must admit, sometimes sends me to the bathroom) and watch a little tv while doing my homework and snuggling my dog. But am I going to do that? No- I'm going to have to camp out with my parents. Admittedly, it's warmer, but I just want to be home!!! The packing alone will leech too much time from my afternoon.
Well, I'm crazy if I stay up writing this any longer instead of sleeping. Wish or pray for my sanity, based on your own personal belief system. I'll need it.
