Getting Sidetracked-These Little Disasters In Our Lives

   

    Yeah, well, as you can see from the title that I didn't write about the virtues of juicing and the health benefits. I guess that will have to come later. 

     Here are some pictures of my living room and why I'm not sitting here typing up about how beets detox your liver and carrots are so good for your overall health and the wonderful benefits that each fruit and vegetable has for us. 

     We sprung springed sprang a leak in the wall last night, but, that is not the end of the story.  We didn't know we had sprung a leak.  So, it leaked and leaked and leaked, all night long.  Dang it, I knew I should have got up in the middle of the night for a snack.  Seems that unhealthy habit might have saved a bit of my wall.

    So, this morning, before I could take my first sip of coffee, I had to hear about this.  Really?  Who's house are we talking about, aah, too bad.  It's my house your talking about? 

     It was kind of a hard thing to assimilate without my coffee.  Don't you sometimes wish you can keep the world out of your life before your ready to deal with it? 

     To make matter worse I called Farmers, and well, if that's your company, run don't walk to a better company.  They want to do everything at "my expense" until they get a chance in a week to check it out.
And then, if it's not approved, I will not be reimbursed.  It seems that being a faithful customer for over 25 years without one claim filed didn't do me a bit of good.  They did send a plumber to detect the leak, at their expense.  But any repairs would need to be paid for  He actually was reasonably priced and if I had money I'd take him up on his offer.  He is from Master Plumbing and he was a nice guy, marked the pipe for me, found the leak in my attic.  Oh wow, my own personal waterfall feature inside my home.

     Yeah, well, life goes on doesn't it?  I still need to try to get the snot out of the toddlers nose, feed him, and teach him how to flush a toilet when there is no water in the house.     

   In the meantime, I think I'll make a small pot of coffee, and try to capture that first morning quiet feeling before life comes jumping in to annoy us.  It will be a bit of work, listening to Thomas the Train playing in the background, but I'm sure I can do it.

     How about you?  Do you ever wake up and find out life is just creeping in a bit too early?
