Things that went nuts

Why is it that when the hubs is out of town that's when something around the house goes nuts? I have started a bit of a list. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. I suppose a bit of both. Bad that I have enough items to create a list but, good that I have (so far) survived these things.
1. On day one when he was going to be out of town for about a month I decided to practice on my motorcycle. Nothing huge, I was just in the drive way practicing going from neutral into first. I was doing okay and then decided that I should run some errands with the car since I don't have my motorcycle license and everything. I put the motorcycle into the garage and turn off the engine, turn the key...don't get the kick stand down well enough and I fell. Broke me arm. The radial head to be exact. Ow. I'm totally good now but dang.


2. He was out of town when I found out I was pregnant. So I had to go through all the shock and amazement by myself.


3. The septic tank went nuts. It didn't need to be emptied or anything and luckily my parents were in town and I knew a guy that could come out and help.

4. Moving onto colder weather. I couldn't get the pellet burner to cooperate. That's not really anything new though. Just annoying because he's really good at it.

5. But now the furnace wasn't working either?! What the heck. A friend of mine came over and I paid him in beer to sit and wait for a furnace guy to get everything worked out. I have heat now and have had no problems since then - thanks for your concern. This was probably when he was gone in October.

6. December - So my pay check got messed up. I had to call HR and they had to do a big research thing. Luckily all the bills and stuff got paid but, it could have been rough. Of course it got resolved but not until the 2nd paycheck later.

7. Now to this month... January. My garage door opener broke. What the.. so now I'm waiting to see if my dad can get it or what. But it's cold outside every so often and now I have to park outside. Unacceptable. I even had to scrape the ice off the windshield once.

 

8. And I'm still on the bowling league. I will be "kicked off" because the person I am subbing for will be back from the south. But I think I slipped on my pants or something and I sort of fell. I say sort of because my leg just slide from under me but I didn't like fall on my side or stomach just crouched down. It didn't hurt that day but the next day when I was trying to go downstairs the back of my thigh hurt a little. Oops.

9. Then last week I was stranded at work!!! I hang my coat up on the coat rack instead of on the back of my chair. I just get too crowded when it's on the back of my chair. Me and one other person really use the coat rack. She has the exact same coat as me and leaves quite a bit earlier than I do. She thought she had left her coat here once so she put her coat on and grabbed mine also. Not a huge deal but, my car key was in the pocket.... So I had my manager give me a ride. Luckily we have another vehicle that the next day I just ran around in that one since I had the day off. Of course she didn't mean it and one of my friends had to go the same way to work on Wednesday so I just bummed a ride. The gal did get me and my manager a Starbucks gift card and told me to buy my friend a drink to and apologized a ton.

10. What's next?
