I feel so overwhelmed the last week. I don't feel stressed necessarily, I just feel like its non-stop SOMETHING coming at me.

My mom's husband/my step-dad is fixing my washing machine right now with my daughter and I'm just sitting here typing. Too many cooks in the kitchen type thing.

I tried taking a nap- no deal.

I need to go grocery shopping in a bad way but don't want to. My kids hate it when I say, "Let's just do a small trip". They always want to spend our entire budget in one go.

My friend wants me to come visit with him at (the far away) Panera. I think he's selfish that way. I'll ask him to get together and then he'll say "I'll be at Panera". "Which one?" I ask. "The one by the mall," he'll answer. Great. Its three times as far away. I'll see how I feel after the grocery store. My youngest is off with his dad but my daughter is with me. She doesn't need much babysitting though.

If this washer would just get fixed I might feel better. That flood really stressed me out. Plus, we have a ton of dirty clothes that were adding up even before the flood.

Thanks for listening.

Of course, Moose, a flood would really stress any of us out. That's downright scary in a way and very annoying.

Hey, I would tell that friend: "let's alternate where we meet. I don't like to drive that far all the time." I am very selfish. I don't like to drive so I always meet people close to my house.

I hope things get back to normal. Hugs!

I hope things get back to normal quickly. It would be stressful to have this happen to somebody not handling MI. Best wishes.

Sorry to hear that your washer flooded. It can be a real pain. Hope your step-dad's fix works.

Floods, UGGH!

They can be so alarming and can make such a mess! Always inconvenient!

I'm glad your stepdad is helping you.

Hopefully, challenges will slow down now.

Thanks everyone.

To anyone not up to speed my hose to the water at the washing machine broke two nights ago. I woke up at 345 to the sound of water running upstairs. None was. So I went downstairs and discovered an inch or so of water covering the entire kitchen. That's where our washer and dryer are. The water was spraying out of the wall about 3 feet. Anyway, maintenance came in half an hour and called someone else to suck up the water and in the carpet.

In my experience a broken and especially flooding washer is very stressful.

Thank you.

I went to Panera anyway. N3 is with his dad and N 2 is with a friend. I'll probably go home soon. I need a shower and clean clothes.

When it rains it pours.

I just came home and the a/c is out. I tried turning the temp down, turning it from auto to on, turning the circuit breaker off and on... nothing. I've called maintenance. Sigh. At least the recording said this is something to call after-hours about. The upstairs isn't that hot, but downstairs is and tomorrow its going to be roasting out so I'd think this is a problem worth fixing soon.

UUUGGGGGHHHHHHH.... I hope they fix your a/c quickly.

One thing after another. Good luck getting everything fixed.

The flood is fixed now thanks to my stepdad (and the two fixit guys). They haven't called me back about the a/c. I don't think they will. I may as well go to bed.

[Moose72]

I have the feeling that nothing can go right now. Maybe I've used up my "gone-rights". I have this feeling of doom like something else is going to drop on my head. I feel its something big. And to think that I just saw my pdoc and was distracted by that other doctor asking me about my vertical labret, instead of me telling her my fears. I'm bad at seeing Pdoc. She just sat there and sang my praises to him: how I call when the slightest thing happens, etc. Ugh. Time to eat again. I'm not losing any weight. I feel like I've gained back anything I've lost and the liver doctors will not be happy EVEN THOUGH my liver enzymes test came back VERY GOOD recently! Oh whatever. Maybe I just need to shut up and go to bed.

Soothing shower and a comfy bed can do wonders.

Water handled and now Hope your AC gets fixed soon

Thanks everyone. I'm up this morning and out with some iced coffee and a gorgeous sunny warm blue sky morning at church early and found a great parking spot!
