Last night we were feeling good, Monday was on the horizon, and we knew that the repair-man would be over in the morning. We woke up bright and early, and James called to make sure that we were on the list. I ventured downstairs into the cold to make coffee and a big breakfast to celebrate. Then the phone rang…

It was our repair-man, and he had bad news. The part that was needed for the heater wasn’t in stock, and it wouldn’t be delivered until Tuesday. We were crushed, and instantly bummed. The upstairs is holding heat, but the space heaters have been running 24 hours a day, and the kiddos are really starting to get stir crazy.

So we were mad for a bit, and even got on the phones to see if there was any way that we could find the part in the 4 states, and there just wasn’t any available.  We then decided that it was time to get out of the house.

We  bundled up the kiddos to go downstairs, and then outside and off to the store. We restocked the upstairs with a few days of supplies, and picked up Happy Meals for the kids. We are all feeling better after the break, and the space heaters got a much needed break too.

I just hope that everything will go well tomorrow, and the heater will be fixed!
