Trying Not To Complain, But…

I’m trying really hard to bite my tongue, and not complain, but the price of gas is getting OUT OF CONTROL!!! On Sunday Unleaded was at $3.59, yesterday when we ran errands it was $3.69, and today $3.79! That is just too high. Diesel was $4.44 yesterday, I have no idea what it is today, but I know there is going to be another price increase at the grocery stores… GRRRR I’m one Grumpy Nico about all of these prices.

So please VENT away and let me know how the gas prices are in your area :) I’m hear to listen and complain a bit too…

The Calling Continues

I’ll catch you up on all of the details… Over two weeks ago we took in our Push Mower to have a new handle placed on the pull-start, an engine tune-up, and to have the blade sharpened. We left the mower and we were told to call back in a few days and the mower would be ready, at $30.00 no less. Two weeks + later…

We have waited and called waited and called for OVER TWO WEEKS!!! Still no answer at the business, still no mower. We ended up calling our Lawn Guy to come by and mow the Front and Back Yard and guess what it was $30.00, and it needs to be done again, so there will go another $30.00 ; ) GRRRRR! I’m going to call the Repair Shop (again) today and hope for the best, but I’m tempted to just forget it and buy a new mower and be done with it all!

Why does the lawn have to be so much trouble?

UPDATE: I finally spoke with the elusive Lawn Mower Repair Guy and he says to call back in a few days and maybe the mower will be ready then. I GIVE UP!!!

Oh My Aching Noggin

I had a feeling that today was going to be one of those days. We needed to be up early this morning for Thade’s final Soccer Game, and Thade woke up last night at 3:00 a.m. He had a case of the sneezes, and Dylan woke up screaming too. I finally got both of the kiddos back to sleep around 4:30 a.m., I needed to be up around 7:00 a.m. I heard my hubby’s alarm clock ring two or three times and I finally drug myself out of bed at 8:00 a.m.

I awoke to a horrible migraine, and a nasty case of nausea. My head is still stinging at this very moment.  I took some migraine medicine first thing, and I grabbed a quick shower. We made it to the game in plenty of time, but the wind and cooler temps were horrible on my noggin.

I’m so ready to call it a night, and hopefully grab a little bit of sleep ;)
