Wearing on me....

I am exhausted.

Plain and simple.

The weekend was ok. It was nice to be off work, but I was just too tired to enjoy it much. I didn't feel well on Saturday, but we had to go out and do a zillion errands anyway.

We got home Saturday evening to discover that there was 2 inches of standing water in the cabinets below the sink.

Dave called maintenance, and a guy eventually showed up with a glass light globe to use as a bucket.

Yeah.

He said "I'm the painter. The maintenance guy will be by first thing Monday morning."

So, I made my batch of soup anyway, and we did the dishes like normal, and there was no water coming from anywhere. There hasn't been more than a drip or two since we discovered the mess.

All of our cleaning products and small appliances got wet, and are sitting on the dining room floor.

The maintenance guy came today and ran the dishwasher.

We use the dishwasher for storage. Ass hat. What a mess.

And he couldn't see a leak coming from anywhere under the sink, so we have to leave all of our stuff sitting out for a few days, and if there's no more leak, he is going to come back, and replace the floor of the cabinet (which is soaked particle board, so it's caving in).

Then, we just have to hope it never happens again, because he isn't going to do anything else.

Other than him making a mess of the stuff we store in the dish washer, he DID bring something to sop up the standing water.

In other news, we saw "The Men who Stare at Goats" yesterday. VERY funny movie. I highly recommend it.

We tried to go work out yesterday, but, for some reason, the gym was locked.

Today, we were going to go after work, but I had to stay late to cover for someone, and am just too plain exhausted. I don't feel well again. Low grade fever, headache, scratchy throat, upset stomach. Just like Saturday.

Yeah, they cut my hours, and I had to stay late. Will have to stay late again tomorrow. BUT the upside of that is that on Wednesday, I have to take that extra time off, and get to leave at 3:30.

That will be a welcome break....leave an hour and a half early, and then be off for 4 days.

Maybe I will re-work my resume and get it back out there.

Tonight? Bubble bath and a cup of Trader Joe's Bedtime Tea. (thanks, Elsa!)
