Have I posted this picture before? I have no idea.

Anyway, feeling a mite stressed today. The furnace is now fixed (as of only half an hour ago - I hate F-ing Col.umbi.a Fu.els) and luckily the seized pump was under warranty for part and service. Horray. So we have heat. The bad news: our poor, poor leaky roof is VERY leaky today. No joke: there are 6 tupperware containers catching leaks in a 5 quare foot space in our living room (conveniently right above our tv/stereo system so if I get electrocuted you'll know why). We're at a loss as to why this is - and I don't think Troy or I have the wits or gumption to be catching leaks and looking up at our ceiling, scratching our heads for the rest of this wet, wet winter. Besides - a carpet littered in plasticware is kinda tacky looking.

And if I can add a bit more irony to my day - we got our water bill. Which is freakin HUGE - how can we consume $138.00 worth of WATER in 45 days? If we need water, we just need to take from the buckets littering my living room floor! Its not like we've been watering the lawn or something! *sigh*

I needed to get some errands done in town - but to be honest I don't have the mental capacity to drag E through the rain to 3 different destinations downtown and pay for parking. Maybe tomorrow - but I don't know. ARG I just feel so stressed today - things that need doing but yucky things keeping me from getting them done.

Blarg I'm too grouchy to type - and E is whining for his afternoon nap and I guess I can't ignore him anymore. Good thing today's payday - mummy needs a glass of wine tonight.
