WEEK IN REVIEW

I am happy to report that this was an uneventful week. YAY! The power washing of the house seems to have done the trick for the siding. The grass continues to yellow in a rather small area in comparison to the entire front yard. I do not know what to expect as far as the rest of our bushes, trees, and yard. I am crossing my fingers that the worst is behind us. HAHA
OUR NEW CUSHIONS !

I started listing strange things that have happened to us since January 1, 1010.
-mailbox broken by plow
-piece of roofing/siding ripping off during a windy , snowy day (it is next to be replaced)
-a leaking area from the roof into the laundry room (currently an issue b/c company is defunct)
-hot water heater breaks
-water meter clogged /needed replaced
-surprise tire replacement in van
-outside light fixtures breaking apart (need to replace all these eye sores)
-obvious hydraulic oil slick
-front door sidelight windows have lost seal, now cloudy looking (don't know what to do about it)
-toilet handle busting AFTER the plumber left
-vacuum died (not as tragic as some of the previous ones)
I truly hope that this is the end of our "house" repairs for the year of 2010. HA! I am not holding my breath.
Madeline enjoyed a week off from school and dance. Everyone involved enjoyed a week off from taking her to and from these. :) The family came to visit me at work on Wednesday to get their teeth cleaned. Meredith once again was being a wimp and wouldn't even entertain the idea of getting her teeth cleaned. Oh well. Afterwards, we headed over to Burger King for lunch and entertainment. The entertainment was the play area the kids had all to themselves.
Matt hasn't broken down yet to cut grass even though the neighbors have done it twice so far.
So that pretty much wraps up our boring week :)
p.s.
Matt is doing taxes for us and Grandma. Excitement right? We owe. BOO! Grandma is cooking us dinner , YAY!
