Welcome to Dana's blog!

Maddening Monday!

I'm just a mess. It's stress and it's stupid. I'm over the possible fiasco taht happened at hte coop Friday (not forgotten tho). The whole thing w/MIL is just enuf in and of itself to do someone in. She did call this am and talked a long time to Mat and to me for a bit and that made me feel better (who cares about how she feels right?LOL). But it just seems like things are not running smoothly at all at home today. I worked out and started laundry. DH told me this am (before I had looked at the thermometer) that today would be a good day to clean the oven. YES! It would! It took me FOREVER to get it set. The clock doens't always work on it, blah, blah so after quite some time (because I have to set it and wait to see what happens) I was getting super frustrated. While waiting the boys discovered that our ISP wasn't working...... I finally realized the stupid operator error and the oven is now cleaning! WAHOO! Good thing too cuz it's still - temps here! And I called DH about the router stuff and his suggestion worked. Somewhere in there, I vacuumed out the van in this balmy weather. Mat asked if it was wise (I won't let them play outside) and I said that I would be fine in the garage w/coat and gloves. It took forever to find an extention cord that would BEND!LOL Then my fingers were FREEZING by the time I was done. I was outside maybe 20 minutes???? I was glad hte oven had dthe house nice and hot too. The moms group is going somewhere on WEd and I don't remember if I have to drive or not and the van was a PIT! It still is as I was not about to use liquid anything to clean it, but at least the floors are clean.

Mat's about done w/school and it's almost time to eat. Shew.......

Good idea

I've been thinking I should clean my oven too in this wonderful (cold) weather. I think dh would flip if I did though. He didn't like it the last time I did when we moved in here. It isn't that dirty, but it sure would warm things up in here.

Monday was maddening here too... the gas line froze on the van on the way home from eye doctor's. I was kicking myself because I forgot to remind hubby to grab the checks before he left. We were on the way to the bank to get cash for gas Grrrr...
