Monday: Great normal day. I cleaned some, did laundry and we went to the park. I was looking forward to my friend Carrie Ann coming over with her kids for breakfast on Thursday. Went to my Mom's for dinner and we came home.
Tuesday/Wednesday: Repeat cleaning, laundry and walk in the park. Dinner at Mother-in-law's, we came home and were relaxing and then the phone rings. David's work phone that is. This is David's week to be on the duty phone and any after hours calls go directly to him. Around 10pm he gets a call, tries working on it at home and realizes he needs to go in to the office. Leaves around 10:30 for that and gets home at 6am. I stay up until 11:30. I woke up and looked at the clock and it was 5am, I did not fall back to sleep until I heard the garage door open. Ayden thankfully woke up at 7:30, so I got a little bit of extra sleep. David didn't have to go in to work Wednesday. After Ayden and I had breakfast, we left to run errands in anticipation of tomorrow's fun with my friend and to let David sleep. We came home, went to lunch and had a good day.
I also couldn't wait to try out one of my new OPI colors, so during Ayden's nap Tuesday afternoon, I painted my toes Honk If You Love OPI, and I love it! Here's a look:
Wednesday night/Thursday: We get a huge wicked rainstorm. At 1:30am David wakes me up telling me we are getting water in our basement. We bring all of Ayden's toys upstairs, the carpet is soaked. Ayden's playroom is no more. David calls his boss Thursday and he works from home and cleans up the mess. The carpet needs to get ripped up and our living room is now Ayden's play area. The positive out of this is we were going to get carpet professionally installed, and we didn't. David and his brother went to Lowe's got some carpet and padding and installed it themselves. I was so upset seeing the carpet that we put down two months earlier get cut up and thrown out, if we had it professionally installed, I would of been sick thinking of all that money going down the drain. David also had a comp day on Friday and we were worried he would have to go in since he was off Thursday. His boss said no, take your comp day.
Our get together was also cancelled seeing as our house was a mess. Next week we can hopefully get together.

Our living room now:
Friday: We go to the zoo with Mother-in-law and one of David's brothers. It was a perfect day and the animals were really active. This was a great way to end the crazy week and start our weekend.
Today: David and his other brother are fixing the sump pump which failed in the rainstorm. Hopefully it will fix the problem and we won't get water again. Tomorrow we're celebrating David's brother Jerry's birthday.
Here's to hoping we will not have a wild week next week.
Have a great weekend everyone! I hope those of you on the East Coast are staying safe!
