When it rains, it pours (literally)

I have said this before and I will probably say it several more times over the years, when it rains, it pours in this house. It is always something with us. The last couple of mornings, Ashleigh has decided to sleep in and this morning was no different. So, I took AJ to school and Rick stayed home to wait for Ashleigh to wake up. Rick was planning on going to medical, anyway, because he has been having problems with his neck and migraines again. So, Rick finally woke Ashleigh up at 7:00 am (which is actually very late for our house). Of course, this morning, she decided she wanted not one, but two bowls of cereal which took her forever to eat. Rick finally dropped her off at school and headed to medical. Once he got there, he realized he had forgotten his medical record at home, so he turned around to go home and get it. On the way back to medical, he was driving the van and it started to make a funny noise and did not seem to be driving right. So he pulled over and realized that he had a flat tire. Luckily, it was not one of the tires we just replaced in the front when I got a flat tire. Rick was able to change the tire and then get to the dealership. Originally, the guys at the dealership said they thought they could patch the tire, however, after further examination, it was not repairable because the tire had a 2 inch gash in it. So, now we have two brand new tires on the van. Just another thing that goes on in our house that is totally unplanned.

However, the story does not end there. After working a little later today, I get home and we notice the sky light in our living room is leaking. So we called the housing place and they came out tonight to take a look and of course, they could not really do anything because we got 3 inches of snow this afternoon. They are going to come back out tomorrow and see if they can figure out where the leak is Can you believe that?

It is always something.........

Just pray for a nice quiet rest of the week for us. I will let you know how it turns out.
