Well, I've been busy. Okay, no, not really. More like busy spelled L-A-Z-Y...heh. Did Christmas really happen? I guess it did because it's almost New Year's Day here in L.A. Christmas was a blur. It came up so fast right after Thanksgiving...remember Thanksgiving? Seems like it happened so long ago. So, yeah, Christmas, family, gifts, yadda, yadda, yadda. We didn't even decorate...which would have meant putting a wreath on the door! Heh.
Right after Christmas, suddenly things started breaking down all around here. The furnace stopped working. During one of the coldest weeks in L.A. BrrrrrrGrrrrrr! That's me being cold and mad at the same time. Then we noticed a puddle forming in the corner where the water heater is located. We still have hot water for the time being but who knows if it will last until we can get the new one installed this weekend? Grrrrrrr! At least Mr. Chickpea was able to fix the leaking toilet. Well, it's working for now but there's plans for a new toilet in the near future. So yeah, on top of the bills for Christmas spending, we got more big bills coming for the new appliances. Ugh...doesn't feel like a good start to a new year for me. Boo hoo. Happy frakking new year!
