Sorry for the outtage today...

Matt had to move our rack 'o computers so the plumber could get at the concrete to tear it up. So he had to disconnect the stuff.

Last night and today went amazingly well until this evening. Maddy slept through the night last night save waking up twice--9:30 and 11. But I didn't need to rock her all night. I had more of an issue sleeping because my nose was so runny/stuffed up. I finally did get up at 3 am and took some night time cold medicine. I was afraid to take it since I wasn't sure if Maddy would be up or not and I wanted my head about myself if she was going to be up. The night before I took medication and she woke up about 30 seconds later!

Maddy got up at 7 and the plumber came at 8:30. Maddy did great the entire time the plumber was here. He was jackhammering, drilling, sawing, dremmeling and banging all day and she never once got scared or upset. As a matter of fact, she took two THRE AND A HALF total naps even with the jackhammering! I was so impressed.

Speaking of, I have stopped with the one nap a day until Maddy is over her cold. Right now, whenever she's tired, I lay her down for a nap. It seems to be working out pretty well.

The plumber wasn't without mishap though. He cut through a cord to our security system which blew the fuse in the plug-in transformer. So it says there's an AC failure now. We can go buy any old transformer and replace it. The plumber will pay for it. I think he was pretty happy that we weren't going to have a guy come out and fix it ($$$). For us it's the principal of the thing, we KNOW what's wrong with it, can we just buy the part we need? And, to their credit, the security company was very good about giving us the information we needed.

After grocery shopping tonight, we found that two of the pipes connecting our wash basin in the laundry room were leaking. Not a lot, but a little. I'm sure they are just loose, so tomorrow when the plumber comes back to finish he can tighten them up then.

Matt was going to give Maddy her bedtime snack and she wacked Matt's hand with the food in it and it went FLYING everywhere. We had it six feet away on the carpet from where they were sitting. So we had to bring up the quick steam vac and do the carpet at 8:30 at night while Maddy waited for bed. SHEESH!

So anyway, tomorrow I won't be online again much since the server will be down again because the plumber is coming to finish up. I won't have email, either. So you probably won't see me until tomorrow night! Have a great night, everyone!

Tea of the day: Gloria Jean's Cinnamon Spice Black Tea, BBW Relax Tea
WO of the day: None today, never got the chance and honestly didn't feel good enough to do it.
