Now This Is Just Not Funny Anymore
Y’all know how I have the worst house luck, right? Shit always goes wrong in our house. We bought a semi-new house to avoid this sort of thing. But the worst part of it is that the shit always goes down when Jake is out of town.
The issue du jour? The roof.
Tonight, after an especially rough bedtime, I went into our room to get the baby monitor and threw myself prostrate on the bed. I was exhausted, frustrated, and just wrung out. I had half an hour before I had to start working and in that time I also had to figure out what to feed myself for dinner. Then I looked up and saw it. A wet spot on the wall where it meets the ceiling.
Fuuuuuuuuck. I so don’t have the reserves to deal with this. Thankfully I have my brother who is calmer than I am. He reminded me to just call the insurance company. So I’ll do that tomorrow. Thankfully I don’t have a drip situation but it needs to get dealt with. And hopefully we don’t need a new roof. I’d hate to think about what our homeowner’s insurance will do if we have a roof replacement.
I’m going to go find some chocolate now.

Come on over here. I have gin. We can compare horror stories.
Seriously. What is it with husbands going away and everything going to shit. I totally unexpectedly had to sit for 2.5 hours with a toddler, while I waited for new tires to be put on my car. Never when he’s home.
I hope you can do a quick fix and won’t have to replace the roof. I feel your pain, it seems like everything needs replacing around here.
Jeezus. I hate that shit.
