Day 1

Day 2.

Do you know what this is?

How about this one, does this photo help?

Is this what yours looks like?

Here is one of the shelves I moved and filled with boxes of sorted keepable items.

This is what the storage room looked like from my point of view, at 5 feet tall.

This is what the upstairs landing looked like when sorting…I locked the cats up eventually. ;)

This is some more work I did. YUP I stacked all those boxes, incredible hey? I’m short but on my tippie toes I can accomplish most anything!

Now the storage room is empty. Phew!

Completely emptied. Ready for a new tank!!!

Who can share those same favourites? Or what was your fav. cartoon or sitcom ever created?
The other day I went into the storage room to get the mop (I’m trying to clean the entire house every Wednesday.) and that’s when I walked onto a puddle of water. Not fun! So I grabbed a towel and started drying, lifting things, and drying some more. I discovered wet soggy boxes, which was GREAT to find! They had obviously soaked up most of the water. I even found two pieces of "aw what’s that cheap wood called again? MTF?" soaked on the ends. That stuff soaked up some of the liquid too!!! And that’s when the big job of emptying the storage room started, if you hadn’t have guessed that it was the hot water tank leaking and thought I just had an obsessive-compulsive-disorder-to-change-everything-around-to-free-up-some-space-in
this-room-just -for-me-to-breathe? That wasn’t the case. Oh after I had told Jeff that I soaked up water in there, while he was relaxing on the couch, he noticed water stains on the ceiling above him (muhaha). That’s when he said it. (Oh and I knew it, I knew it!!! It HAD to be the hot water tank!) "The storage room has to be cleared out because the hot water tank is definitely leaking! And that’ll be your job tomorrow." Fun! It was a great workout that’s for sure. I felt bad for the cats though. They had be locked up for the whole 2 hours, but they weren’t alone! I made sure their favourite catnip-filled drugged toys were in there and I tossed them a few catnip-filled relaxant candies, so they were happy for a little while! ;)
Oh and as many of you know today was YES in fact the day I met with the Surgeon and I know many of you are wondering how our mtg went? Well it was filled with a number of emotions. It was a VERY short mtg, maybe 10mins long! This Dr. works fast…my surgery only took 12mins. He said from his perspective I have "VERY PRISTINE" woman parts and that I am "VERY FERTILE". He said everything looked "PERFECT". And then he suggested I talk to my Doctor about getting more tests done. Then he suggested the tests I should have done. Jeff wants to wait now for a bit though. And you know I kind of do too. I REALLY would rather live with the little bit of pain I feel now than going under the knife in the hospital again! I mean the cramps haven’t been that bad this last year. Maybe 2 months out of this year. In the past however it would be excruciatingly painful, to the point where I had to take T3′s and they wouldn’t even help come to think of it the last time that happened was on the Island-maybe it has something to do with the wet-cold triggering the cramps. But ever since I started drinking So Good with the Omega 3 and now DHA the cramps have slowly dissipated!!! Sometimes ‘my time’ will just creep up on me and surprise me. (TMI?/been there?) And those times even though rare, are extremely exciting! I STILL HAVE PMS (migraines, moodiness WATCH OUT!) so you know I KNOW it’s coming or rather Jeff KNOWS, just without pain.
Anyhow, I am a weaving wonderfully made baby machine, according to the surgeon. When will the button be turned on and those babies start popping out??? Who knows? Except God and Jeff! haha
I’m telling you! Jeff WILL KNOW before I do that I’m pregnant (so ask him :), and he’ll surprise me with the news! I’m sure of it!!! We’re a weird couple that way! HAHA LOL
What about you? If you have children. did your husband HAVE TO TELL YOU? YOU WERE PREGNANT???
(When it comes to cats I know. I had to tell Jeff Salsa was pregnant both times! He couldn’t believe the second time, but I KNEW!)
Have you ever experienced a hot water tank leak before? If so, did it look like the photos above???
