To...VACATION!

So, today is bittersweet.. I have to leave my husband :( but Im going to Cancun...soooo I cant be that sad. lol Sorry Daniel! Haha. Just kidding. It just hasnt hit me yet. I finished writing all my daily letters for him that Im going to place all over the house, that way he wont forget about me while Im gone. :) Ughh..Its only 4 days! Come on.. I can do it. Haha.

Anyways, today is going pretty slow and Im ready to go home and spend time with Dan before I leave. My mom is coming over at 8 and we are driving to Elizabeths to sleep/watch tv until we have to be at the airport at like 3 am. Oh what fun. I hope I get at least a little sleep so Im not so tired the first day but Im a trooper and Im pretty good at running on adrenaline.. it worked in Vegas!! Ill make it... :)

I feel like I need a break, lately Ive been really stressed out..I kinda think its PMS though.. ya know?! I noticed on Sunday that there was water on the floor in our kitchen, and it was kinda smelling like vinegar..it was weird. Actually it started to drive me CRAZY and I think it was Monday I decided to wash the rugs thinking they got wet and now they are smelling. Somehow it was logical. After I washed them...which was a huge task. -- They are from IKEA so you are not supposed to wash them but I did anyway thinking its worth a try!? They fell apart in the washer, on the floor, outside, in the dryer lol. They actually did the best in the dryer because it took all the fuzzies off of them. Dan flipped when he saw our backyard because it was covered in red fur from the rugs lol. He was like sneaking up to the backdoor because it was kind of dark out and I was like what? what?? what?? I obviously knew about the rug and told Dan about it earlier but since hes not the best listener he didnt hear me. I was freaking out that there was a person in our yard or something but noo...it was the rug all over the place lol. He thought an animal or something came into our patio and did that. lol Wow.

So anyways... After I get those all cleaned up, the kitchen smells good again.. the next day I started to notice a little water...I just thought I spilt it and cleaned it up..Yeeeah, things dont usually click with me very quickly. So yesterday I get home from work and two rugs are soaking wet, and the third is getting there.. WTF! I call Winfield and the guy mentions something about the freezer to Dan so hes moving stuff around. The maintenance guy finally comes around 7 or 8 and tells us thats the problem. Apparently I was blocking the vent in my freezer (no one has ever informed me of this!) and it was freezing the back of the freezer and melting, rolling behind the cabinets, and onto the floor. Oh how nice. BTW Im so happy we do not have own a house lol Ive gotten our $527 worth of rent this much on maintenance alone. (Remember the fridge light incident ? lol - and our internet is not working so theyve been out to our house about 4 times in 2 weeks.) The maintenance guy is over at our house right now thawing out the back of the freezer to speed up this process so that we dont have to wait for it to unthaw over the next few days. What FUN! :)

Back to being stressed, as all of this was going on last night I was sooo hot because I was cooking in the oven (our grill is broke) and our a.c. was just not cooling off the house fast enough. I was stepping in this stinky water as Im trying to cook. I was trying to move fast so I broke a nail, bruised my hand and almost cut my finger. I was about in tears.. Im so happy to have a vacation now. I want to get away from normal life for a few days... Not Dan but thats the sacrafice I have to make unfortunately.

To end on a good note, Im excited for vacation tonight/tomorrow to start and spend some quality time with my family. My love for Dan will grow even stronger the time we are spending apart and I know when I come back we will have a great reunion. :) lol It will all be worth it. AND he will have a happier wife! Life is good.
