THIS is what I woke up to. Even though it just seems so... so... I don't know, wrong ---- when it rains, it pours.
I am at that point of exhaustion and frustration where I really don't even know what the answer is. It seems that right now, the best idea is to list the whole house for rent and then from there figure out just where the heck *I* would live.
In order to end this on a positive note, today I am thankful for rubber spatulas, rubber maid bins and coffee.

Nah. I have resorted to just laughing at the whole thing while staring pensively out my office window. Hail. Thunder. Black.
Huzzah!
