Frustrations

This has been a week where not exactly everything has gone according to plan...very, very little in fact. On the upside, nothing major, nothing at all, but little frustrations have been abundant.

As I mentioned previously, our cable went out Monday evening. Honestly not a huge deal, but it still must be dealt with. When my husband called yesterday morning he was told they couldn't come out until tomorrow evening. We now will make sure one of us (preferably my husband) will be home between 4 & 6. We had friends over for dinner last evening and one of them is terribly allergic to cats. I was doing major cleaning in an effort to make it bearable for her, and about mid-afternoon our vacuum started smoking. AGH!!!! I could come up with alternatives for most cleaning issues, except of course, vacuuming the rug. My husband borrowed one from our neighbors, but in a twist of irony it didn't work very well either. Today after we made sure we were home this afternoon in order for the a/c to be disconnected, we ran to buy a new vacuum cleaner. Tomorrow is the part I'm really dreading. Not only is there going to be chaos involving the chimney, I am taking the kids and heading to the cottage to help move out for the last time. I'm glad I can be of assistance, but I had really hoped to avoid it. It just makes me emotional. Tomorrow evening JR has a scout meeting to get ready for camp next week. I already had plans and my husband needs to be home for the cable, so we need to make arrangements for JR. He is supposed to have his physical form to take with him tomorrow evening, but the doctor couldn't work him in until Friday morning...of course at the same time as the a/c people are coming to reconnect the unit.

Like I said, none of this is major and it is all going to work out just fine. I just feel as though "work" is the key word right now!
