Inspirational Thought Of The Day

Question life. Question the sky. Don't be ok just letting days pass you by. Find out the truth. Find out what lies above the blue and deal me in. This is the life that I choose even if I loose so deal me in. - David Ramirez

Domestic Diva Mondayitis!


G'day Trendsetters!
Talk about a bad start to the week!! Over the weekend, both my dryer and dishwasher decided to blow up on me.....the dishwasher wasn't a big surprise considering its now going on 13 years old and has been on the blink for the past few months........but the dryer I wasnt expecting, and with all this wet weather around too!!

The dryer went first on Saturday....it has power but wont tumble and of course the diswasher packed it in with a Sunday load of the weekends dirty dishes.....Well...I totally lost it!!......I kicked it (ouch that hurt!) and cursed it and called it names......then begged it to work for me just ONE last time lol......but to no avail. It has had a long hard life making my life easier.....
May it 'Rest In Peace' in dishwasher heaven.

So guess what I got to do today??? All the washing up!!!
I SOOOOOO don't like Mondays!!
I don't want to Jonah myself but I can't help but wonder what will break down next as bad luck always run in three's.


On a brighter note....tax time is just around the corner.....if Im lucky I might squeeze a new stainless steel dishwasher out of my refund. Cross your fingers for me!! lol
Weeeeeeeee!!....I learnt how to add my fan blinkies!!!!!!


Have a great week!

Hugs n Smiles
