Weekend In Review

I want start off by saying, I am still alive. I've just been extremely busy. I started my new job last week so I basically came home every night and passed out on the couch. I'm starting to get into a groove now so I think things will calm down and I can actually do some of the things that I enjoy while I'm at home instead of being a zombie.

So, I thought I would do a review of our weekend.

1. Friday we did our weekly Target trip and purchase Turbo Tax. I have co-workers who say it's really great so I thought we could try to do our own taxes for once.

2. On Saturday, Thing 1 finally did #2 on the potty after not going #2 for a week. Because of this, the toilet clogged. We plunged it and it seemed to be ok.

3. Saturday evening we put in the Turbo Tax CD and completed our taxes. Our Federal taxes were e-filed and have been accepted and we mailed our State tax return today. It was very easy to use. I'm pretty excited to say that I have my taxes done at the beginning of February!

4. On Sunday, we found that the toilet was actually not ok requiring us to have a professional come and use a power auger to get the clog out. We were also told that there is a crack in the pipe which caused the huge poop to clog the toilet. We were relieved that the crack in the pipe made it clog as that meant it was the landlady's responsibility to fix and not ours. I didn't have an extra couple hundred dollars lying around to pay Roto Rooter to use a power auger to unclog our toilet.

5. Because of the whole toilet issue, we didn't get anything accomplished on Sunday that we normally would. This caused Monday to be a Manic Monday. Grocery shopping needed to be done and much food needed to be prepared as The Mr. is going out of town beginning tomorrow and we all know that I have no idea how to cook.
