What Next?!?

What the freak did I mess around with in feng shui that we are gettin' nothing but broken stuff this month? It's so bad I find myself with a list of broken crap and a pocketbook that needs a rest! Here's a list of my troubles this month.

1. Dryer didn't have heat (luckily the hub fixed) FIXED

2. Our Apple Computer wouldn't turn on (luckily we had the Apple Care Warranty and got a new power supply. Note to self, good job on the purchase of the warranty it was like the first time a warranty ever worked, see below Volkswagon) FIXED

3. The Hub's car overheated (or rather it broke real bad for the 40 millionth time and we decided it wasn't worth fixing.... so we are looking for a new car and hope to purchase a new one by the end of the month. Note to self, never ever, ever buy Volkswagon again! Friggin Jettas and their stupid warranties that they don't honor!) DEAD/NEED TO BUY NEW CAR

4. I washed the hub's phone (he's back to using an old phone with knobs that sometimes work. Note to self, friggin check the pockets of hubby's clothes after a trip and don't just throw the laundry from the suitcase into the washer) DEAD/NEED TO BUY NEW PHONE SOMEDAY

5. The gardener's broke (How does this happen? Well they have been doing a really shitty job so we fired them. Note to self, learn how to mow lawn) NEED TO BUY LAWN MOWER, BLOWER, TREE TRIMMER or HIRE A NEW GARDNER.

6. Direct TV broke (our little box refused to hook up to satellite for days and the Customer Service Team wanted to charge us $50 to send a guy out. Okay, your product is broken and you want to charge me? This is part of our of nickle and dime society that I currently hate. Don't even get me started on Airlines. So bye bye greedy jerks and hello Time Warner and new DVR and On Demand. Note to self, it's good to switch companies every so often so that you get better deals). FIRED DIRECT TV and HIRED TIME WARNER CABLE WITH NO CONTRACT.

7. The electricity in the house went out (the light in the hallway closet was broken so we bought a new light and then the electricity went out in the house so we had to take that light out to get our electricity back but not after two hours of a scary, grumpy (because he didn't eat) hubby -Note to self, always feed the hubby before he starts an electrical project). LIGHT STILL BROKEN NEEDS TO BE FIXED

8. No Gas in the house (the friggin cable guy tripped the earthquake valve and we had to have the gas company come out and fix and charge us $64 bucks - I guess we should of paid the Direct TV guy cuz know we are in the hole a further $14?? Note to self, shit happens) FIXED AS OF 5 MINUTES AGO.

Can't wait for November to get here so we can leave jinxy October behind!

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of
