phew...what a week

Fourteen days and counting! Julia and I have been busy tying bows, fixing, fussing and having a blast with the last minute wedding preparations!! The days are being checked off as Julia and Adam's wedding quickly approaches. The time has come for the final payments for the reception and the florist! Check! Got that done!
Meanwhile, if those payments weren't enough, the toilet in the main floor bathroom has been dying a slow death. Whenever we have company, it seems to go on the brink!! Well, after much checking and tweaking,. . . we are getting a new toilet in the powder room ~ $400.00
If that wasn't enough, Craig was heading to the hardware store to fix the falling-apart-kitchen chairs, but my car wouldn't start! Yup...you guessed it, we needed a new battery! ~ $200.00!
Yea! The mail came! I quickly ran to see what good news it would bring and sure enough, our car insurance payment is due! Lucky for us, we'd set up monthly installments! Perfect timing! Who has $3800.00 this week???

Well, to relax a bit, Craig decided to give the lawn a quick trim! WHAT!! The lawnmower had slipped a belt. Thank goodness, it was only ~ $178.00! Well...it's Friday now. Craig is finally mowing the grass, the toilet guy is on his way to replace the broken one, three of the four kitchen chairs are glued and in working order, the car insurance payment has been transferred, and Bella and I area heading out for a calm, relaxing, walk! Here's hoping to a better week to come! Sheesh......
