Glad you got it all figured out (cept the dishes thing) and I hear you on that one....I would rather go without a shower for 18 months than a dishwasher. :-)Danahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02595395112192756302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3238830257475991181.post-67623777785734995842011-07-26T12:48:31.604-07:002011-07-26T12:48:31.604-07:00oh man this made me remember how many things Heath...oh man this made me remember how many things Heather and I broke when we were young! The best of which was when we crawled up on the ROOF and cracked the skylight. oh my mom just looooooooved us right then. Or the time we filled the bathtub with dish soap and slid down the bathroom floor and down the stairs on a waterfall of Dawn! <br /><br />Oh yes. But with two boys, I am certain I'll get mine and my mom will think the same thing yours did "sucks to be you" at least you'll be able to tease her about it for ages!Stephanie @ dial m for minkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13306603630901454113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3238830257475991181.post-74485250547441002732011-07-24T22:23:36.679-07:002011-07-24T22:23:36.679-07:00Ya, my husband and I have pretty much agreed we ar...Ya, my husband and I have pretty much agreed we aren't going to own anything new for another 10-14 years (our youngest is 7.)<br />My jaw dropped when I saw how your daughter had pulled the shower right out of the wall. I'm not even sure how I would react to that either.

Isn't it wonderful that you can handle that many heartbreaks in one day!!! You are amazing! ;-)<br /><br />One should never keep that much drama to themselves!<br /><br />I liked Jere's comment. <br /><br />We found a great replacement oven for $120 on Craigs List. All the people upgrading to stainless appliances are a blessing, maybe you can grab a dishwasher that way?Hot Diggity Dawshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11582147446084200946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3238830257475991181.post-72656107937363620502011-07-21T23:22:05.536-07:002011-07-21T23:22:05.536-07:00I had no idea that your day had been such a dump h...I had no idea that your day had been such a dump hole!! Hopefully I read right that Troy was able to help you out tonight with these issues?? Seriously, that is ridiculous. Kids ruin everything. And then they just stand there starting blankly at you while you rage and scream like a wild monkey. It's so frustrating. :) Can Troy do anything about the dishwasher??Lanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09788941750588804931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3238830257475991181.post-20073283680357321422011-07-21T22:44:32.264-07:002011-07-21T22:44:32.264-07:00You win.

Especially since you can blog tomorrow about the outcome :)<br />Guess the next thing you should remember to do is "Thank" God for your blessings (instead of cursing him for your challenges EVEN WHEN you can't possibly see a blessing right then in any of it). And then look for any blessing in the challenge! I promise you'll find life so much more palatable. There will NEVER be a time when the fairy tale ending goes on and on and on. It just ain't life! There will ALWAYS be challenges and things that could be considered unpleasant, unless you blog, laugh and ask to see the blessing. Love you my "Pretty little, Allyson, whose smile is so bright....When I see you face light up... It makes my day alright!"
