Water, water everywhere
Woke up this morning, came downstairs with Seth and as I stumble into the kitchen I hear, "Oh mess! Mommy! Water!"
My heating system (old school steam heat) shit the bed. I had water all over the basement, the living room. It was coming through the ceiling from the girls' bedroom. It was 64 degrees. By the time I left for work it was 59.
How awesome is my life this week? I know you're envious.. I can feel it. You're all, "Gosh, that Jenn really has the easiest, most uncomplicated life. Especially this week! She totally ROCKS!"
I do rock, but this is getting a bit out of control. Even for me. Good times!

ReplyDeleteIf you have the choice to laugh or cry... you should ALWAYS choose to laugh! I know you are having a SHITTY week, beyond shitty, and the last thing you probably need is a pep talk! Yeah, I know! But, here is a little one... I know you are worried about JP and stressed about his new diagnoises and all that is going on w/ him...I understand worrying about your child... I can't imagine, however, what you are going through w/ finding out he has ASD. BUT, the good thing is that every day they make medical advancements and in life in general! He is a very loved child... and he will flourish and grown and no matter what he will always be WONDERFUL and amazing ~ because he already is and you can't take that away, no matter what you are diagnoised w/. You have been through so much, and I'm sure at other points in your life, you were at a low time, and stressed and upset and worried, and you made it through them all! You made it through them because you are truly an amazing person, woman and most important MOTHER! ~ I'm not a religious person really, but I believe enough for me, & my family & friends and I know that you only get delt what you can really handle... I do believe that, I don't know why the hell you have to be tested to handle things... and given so much... that I'm still working on.. but I know you are strong/brave/smart and courageous enough to handle all this! You just need to take a deep breath, hike up your pants (so they don't get wet ~ trying a little humor here, sorry!) and put on that courageous smile! ~ And know that when things don't go exactly the way they are supposed to or what you have worked so hard to get them to, you have family & friends to lean on and count on. I know we haven't even ever met in person, but I feel a connection to you, other than being mom's of twins and other than both being Jenn's, and all that... I just feel like we are kindered spirits or something like that! Times are shitty and if you need anything let me know... although I like to talk (a LOT) I'm also a GREAT listener! I'm sending you tons of well wishes for all that is going on with you and your family and for JP and lots of hugs and support!! You can do this... You only need to remember to take it one day and one step at a time and most of all SMILE! ~
Hugs,
Jenn
