Sucks to be Me

So since we blew the money we had set aside on a new camcorder, it only makes sense that our freezer went out yesterday. Crap! What timing, huh? We ran out today to get a new one, and luckily it's freezing here so hopefully we won't lose our meat. Apparently, I have purchased a lot of chicken. Stupid chest freezers, everything falls to the bottom so you don't know what you have, so of course you buy more! We had the good sense this time to buy an upright freezer. So everything is in coolers in the garage and I'll go load it all back up before I go to bed. I just can't believe the timing. Luckily, Lane gets an extra check in January so that will take care of it, but still! Now, I think my microwave is going, too! And sometimes my dryer makes a funny noise . . .

We got a bunch of snow today, so it finally feels Christmas-y. I even managed to walk with Calvin down for our morning "coffee" without falling down. Just ask him - I fall A LOT! Sometimes I don't even need snow - I inexplicably fell down in the movie theater when we went to see HSM3, and I think I threw out a hip or something, because I was gimpy for almost 2 weeks - and had a big old bruise on my big old butt!

I finished up through 1991 in Lane's Grandma Funk's journal. She was such an amazing person.

I know it always happens like that. I thought we would have some extra on JD's next check, but no we have two unexpected things come up, so now it is all gone and we don't even get paid until Friday!
