| Cons | Pros |
| Washer leaked everywhere | Still works with no leaks on warm setting |
| Rainy weather caused dog chain to rust and snap from big dog pulling at it

| My hands ache | Lots and lots of work |
| Steve Guttenburg got voted off DTWS | I got to watch DWTS |
| Son got dumped, panic attacks | Eating and doing much better |
| Son got dumped, "just friends" schpiel | She actually said "hi" today |

| Keep forgetting to thaw chicken for supper | Pizza and Mom bailed me out with soup to go with leftover pizza! |
| No bath due to no hot water | Dishes done |
| My niece gave birth, still doesn't know who father is, now engaged to someone completely different, and she just turned 17. | I'm a very, very, very, very, very young great aunt.
|
| Can't get WordPerfect installed on kids' computer, daughter very upset | She's been bitten by the writing bug and pencil/paper is just too slow |
| My printer has to be hand fed one piece of paper at a time | Kids not wasting ink for stuff they leave on the floor to step on, anyway |
| Flooded basement, temperamental sump pump, water up to heater base | The sump pump is holding, we haven't had to use the heater in four days |
| My grandfather keeps picking on my weight and has Alzheimer's disease | He was very sharp mentally, only getting one of the kids confused |
| No time to write
| Book is so vivid I'm conversing with myself while I do dishes, take a bath, or no one is home |
| Tornado warning
| Basement flooded after we were done hiding down there |
| Son got dumped | Sunny still got b-day presents from XGF |
| No correspondence from Armenian acquaintance since I admitted to living in Turkey as a kid | Got helped bunches with the historical aspect of the book I'm writing, and timing coincides perfectly |

| I'm crying about my father, again, and I'm thinking about everyone else, too | I helped someone with dealing with impending loss of a loved one |
| 23 mins 29 seconds of background office noise because doc left machine going | I know the doc has a promiscuous grandfather and his new wife, 18, is pregnant |
| 23 mins 29 seconds of background office noise because doc left machine going, continued. | Hey, I'm caught up reading on a couple of other blogs. I wonder if they'll feel sorry for me at Good Company and pay me for a little of this... |
| Tired of working | Two dog bites, a cat bite, and a nail gun injury do make the night go faster |
| Floor rotten under washing machine | Might get to China? |
| Power supply to desk/cell phone chargers shaky | I always do put stock in good shock value |
| Not enough power supply, nearly all 110 anyway | Um, we're a little more green than other folks? |
| It's raining again. | ... |
| Kids off Friday | Kids off Friday |
| Forgot to make hub's coffee | Didn't say anything. Phew. |
| I really don't want to deal with Heifer | |
| So much work... | Being indispensable at the Good Co. |
| Lots and lots of work... | Rheumatology is a nice change |
So, that's it in a nutshell. It kind of worked.
