Seriously, of all weeks to get sick, THIS IS NOT THE ONE! Okay, done yelling. To make matters worse, Bill and I have the same cold. Now, the only thing worse at this point is if we would have gotten sick in a couple of days like the morning of Disney. Even so, this sucks. Seriously. I have some major packing and some major work that needs to get done this week. I don’t have time to be sick. Ick.
Now, while I am gone I’ve got some cool stuff happening. Still not sure if I am going to have internet (working on Bill to let me get it). However, I will be doing some testing this week with some pictures from my phone. If everything works well, they will autopost for me. I can then hopefully keep you all updated on our Disney advertures.
It’s off to bed right now though, it’s 12:20 am, and I’m never going to get better without sleep. See ya later alligator.

So — I am about a month late on this one, but better late than never, right?
Well, she had a great 5th birthday. The weather got a little hairy for my parents to make it down, but they did. Madison had a blast, and she loved her ballerina cake that got her. She got a ton of great gifts too!

This is the chain we made to count down the days till we go to Disney. We are a little less than 30 days out. Each day Madison takes off a link, and it helps to build excitement towards our trip!

I’m kinda freaked out right now. Bill went to work early this morning which never happens. About 15 – 30 minutes after he left, the phone rang. The Caller Id came up as private caller. Now, my number is one off from State Farm and a cab company, so we get a lot of phone calls at weird hours for them. That is what I thought this was. However, he knew my name. Now, he woke me up so I forgot how exactly the beginning of the conversation went:
Me: Hello
Pranker: How are you today
Me: Who is this
Pranker: This is Mr. Lucifer for Miss Lisa
Me: You have the wrong number
Pranker: Are you sure?
At this point, I hung up and called Bill. He then informed me that the back door was not locked, and I should go do that. I’ve been sitting here for about an hour now all freaked out and super tired.

NOT! I swear when it rains it pours. I awoke to a huge puddle of water in front of my house this morning. Now, the temp is -8 with a windchill of -20, so I definitely should not have had standing water. I called Bill freaked out and he had me call the village. I think it is a water main break. However, nobody bothered to come to my door. Instead, they just turned off my water. I just realized it when I tried to make Will his diluted version of juice. Needless to say, I am ticked. I called the village, and they won’t give me an ETA at all. I seriously would love to know if I need to send Bill out for water or what. I seriously am trying not to be highly irritated right now. I could be working on things like Increasing Blog Article Quality or doing some of my freelance work. Instead, I am standing in my front window watching my village dig a huge hole in my street and trying to figure out what to make for dinner with no water. Also, try explaining to a 5 year old why she can’t flush the toilet after we have spent 2 years drilling it into her head that she needs to flush the toilet.
I know there are way bigger things in life I should be concerned about, but man this is irritating.
