Ahh Tuesday, I’m so glad you’re here.
Yesterday was a total mess and by around 3pm I was on the phone with Chino the Handyman pretty much having a nervous breakdown. Poor Chino. It felt like nothing was going right.
The cook top took 3 hours to install… then when it was time to hook it up, we needed a new part, so I went to the Home Depot to look for it. And while I was away, the washer, dryer, new toilets, vanity and some other odds and ends were delivered. Which was great, but Lowe’s was suppose to hook up the washer and dryer in the house. But Cameron didn’t know that, so the people from Lowe’s just put them in the garage.
Which meant the guys were going to have to bring them in to the house and install them. No big deal, but kind of a pain because I know that Cameron has a bad shoulder and shouldn’t be moving things like washers and dryers up a bunch of steps in the first place.
And then Cameron shot himself in the hand with the nail gun and had to leave to go get that taken care of. Which meant now washer and dryer hook up. {First world problems, I know. Shame on me}. And on top of that, I kept going back and forth about the paint color I picked {and bought 10 gallons of!} and not wanting to paint anymore of the downstairs because I’m not sure if it’s too peachy or not. Which I totally need to get done because they’ll be working on the trim on Wednesday!
Long story short, Monkey Boy and another guy hauled the washer and dryer into the house after school and hooked them up. Girly Girl stopped by and reassured me about the color and basically told me to SUCK IT UP because I’m near the finish line.
All is well. Keep calm and carry on, right?
3 more weeks to go people. 3 more weeks. I’m trying to hang in there but it’s getting harder everyday. Gaaah!

P.S. I hate whiny people. And I am whining. So I apologize for that.
P.P.S. The tile in the background {behind the washer and dryer} That was installed while I was out of town. It was the wrong tile. But the HH didn’t know that until he texted me an image and I was like THAT’S THE WRONG TILE!!! So that had to get torn up. Good times people. Good times. Yes, I am still whining. SHAME ON ME!
