I'm not sure if I ever mentioned that when the repair man came to look at our dryer several weeks ago, he said that everything looked good and that it wasn't getting enough power to it (aka, the outside breaker had flipped - $50 later, I now know we have an additional breaker box outside...) Sigh.
So this morning I am getting ready to do some laundry (Molly decided to throw up three times last night, once on the bed!) and I'm noticing that I cannot get the darn dryer to start! I have this "You have got to be kidding me moment" and start looking for the candid camera. I check the plug - everything looks good. I switch the setting on the dial - nope that didn't work either. So I trek outside to the breaker box I recently established a relationship with - flip the switches. I come back inside to give it another go. No response. I almost screamed, but as I look down to begin kicking the dryer, I realize I did not shut the door all the way. Burn.
Why I tell these stories on myself, I don't know. Maybe to boost the egos of my friends. Hope that knocked you a notch higher on the esteem ladder today.
In my ramblings about my hunt for a hobby (thanks for the input by the way) I forgot to tell you that Cameron got his staples out yesterday! I miscounted the first time - I believe there were 44 of those suckers pulled from his flesh. It was completely fascinating to watch. I usually get grossed out by that kind of stuff. It helped that Cameron was not in pain so I could stare in awe without feeling sorry for him. The nurse said his incision looks healed so one less thing to worry about. Hallelujah! We are continuing to be blessed with meal after meal from our church family. We have not had to cook at all since we've been back home! I do feel a little guilty because I am perfectly capable of making food for Cameron, but so many people have been wanting to help in some way and this is more that I ever imagined. To all of you who have prayed for us, fed us, emailed, called, texted, or come by to visit - THANK YOU! We are surely feeling the love around here :)
