When it rains...it POURS

Can I please just crawl into a hole right now. Whoever said things only happen in 3's had no idea what the junk they were talking about. Days like today seem to happen all to often. Im not going to bore with all the crazy details, but let me just say that adding 2 bored kids to the mix doesnt help the mood. Today was supposed to be my big cleaning day and I was all prepard for it-my house was all prepared for it-it was yelling at me-CLEAN ME, CLEAN ME. Yesterday as I started my mountain of laundry (still catching up from my week long absence) I went to go change the load and what do you know, the washer had stopped in mid rinse cycle. With a washer full of water and wet jeans, we figured the motor had burned out. GREAT...are you kidding me with this-it couldnt of happened at a WORSE time(Im $ure you all know what im talking about,without going into detail) The washer and dryer are like ancient, so its time for a new one. I really wanted to do my homework on this and find one that will suit our big family better and lessen my laundry time. I thought I would take some time and research. Well a half hour has turned into 2 1/2 and thanks to my cranky baby who didnt want to sleep or be put down, I didnt get anything done this morning. I thought once she goes down for her nap, I will research, then CLEAN until its time to get the kids from school. I should have cleaned before getting on the computer. I am totally back at square one. After reading endless customer reviews and consumer reports, I am convinced that all washers stink!!! So with my cleaning time wasted and the house an even BIGGER mess I called my sister to vent.(thanks Stacy, I know you love it)I had just hung up when I hear the sound of water-kinda like rain. I thought Caleb had left the sink running because he had just washed his hands. I go into the bathroom and realize it wasnt that, I walk into my room to discover that it is raining from the ceiling. I rush upstairs to find the sink clogged with Noahs change that Tyson and Caleb dumped into the sink and the water running and spilling out all over the place. I dont mean a stream, I mean a huge waterfall. They told me they were giving their cars a bath. So, I just used all that was left of my clean towels to soak up the mess and now I have even more laundry, no clean towels and NO WASHER. This on top of everything else that is happening is causing me to have a nervous breakdown. I think im getting pretty good at these. Now the baby is awake, its time to pick up the kids from school, do homework, start dinner, clean up dinner, I have enrichment night tonite and I was totally looking foward to that but now im not going because we have to go find a stupid washer, then its bath and bed time. I usually consider myself an optomist when days like this happen, and I say "Tomorrow will be a better day" but not this time. Its the worst thing of all. IM GOING TO BE 30. AHHHHHHH!!! Does anyone know of a good hole???
