My day started out like most days. Got up early, fed the girls, put them in front of some toons. Since the girls were occupied I decided to finish the yard work up. I started just after eight.
Not fifteen minutes into mowing my lawn two officers in a patrol vehicle pull into my drive. I cut off the mower to go see what they needed. They had been called an informed that I was disrupting the peace, being obnoxiously loud and possibly hurting someone.
They were pretty pissed to find me mowing my yard and my kids still with their heads. I guess I didn't quite live up to the hype the ASSHOLE neighbor fed them. I was merely doing yard work not massacring small children and animals. Oh! Well, the morning went on and I finished mowing the ENTIRE yard as well as weed eating all of it...which took WAY TOO LONG.
I put away my tools, cleaned up and decided it was time for me to have my breakfast. In scavenging my meal I discovered that the freezer part of the fridge had stopped working and from the looks of it (the giant puddle forming around the fridge and every thing thawed out and warming) it had died sometime last night. WTF! How had I missed this when I got the girls breakfast?
So I clean out the freezer, tossing a bunch of new unopened just purchased items and mop up all the water the thawing process had created. I then call my Rental Company to inform them of this new problem and they let me know that a repairman will be contacting me.
It has been a while. About an hour now and no repairman has called nor are there any in sight. *Fuming* I am so damn mad because now I suspect that my entire refrigerator is giving up the ghost. It is just cool inside. I will have to make an ice run in order to try and save my food. DAMN DAMN DAMN!
Why does this kind of stuff always happen to me? Why does it only seem to happen when Zack is deployed, I am already stressed and on a tight budget?
I have called my Rental Company again and informed them that I need the repairman NOW. They are working on it. *Sigh* Okay. I guess we are off to make an ice run because you just can't sit back and wait for others to solve your problems. Oh, how nice that would be every now and then.
FUCK! Repairman just called. The soonest he can be here is between two and three pm. Will someone be home? Fuck yes, someone will be home....me, fuming, pissed, angry, ready to throttle your ass since ASAP and EMERGENCY mean nothing. Let us just hope everything will keep in the mean time with ice as I have no real funds to replace the majority of it until payday.
