What the Heck?
They say that bad things usually come in threes, but apparently not for us.... Try at least 6 or 7 in the last couple of months.....(knock on wood, right?)
I swear it is either just our bad luck or something just as crazy (like kids:))...
First off our one-year old dishwasher breaks (of course right after the warranty expires...)
then, Peyton breaks our pocket door separating the kitchen from the pantry... (kids you gotta love them:))
then of course as you all know from an earlier post our old IMAC bit the dust (of course once again as soon as the warranty expires...)
then our air conditioner decides to shut down....(lovely especially in the heat of the desert afternoons)
then our sprinklers spring a leak (lovely)
we have had a few others but why make the list even longer......
I mean "are you kidding me?" Luckily Nate has been able to fix a lot of these on his own (I am extremely grateful for that) for the others they have been fixed but not without being costly.
Oh yeah there is that problem still with the pocket door (if only there was a way to fix it without ripping a hole in the drywall, patching it back up, texturing it and painting it so that it matches the rest of the kitchen, and not taking another weekend away from us. Oh well, I guess we don't really need it until I figure out how to do just that, it will have to wait!)
Thanks for letting us vent!! Let's just hope that this bad luck is behind us..... at least for this week anyway!

They always use to say Bad stuff comes in 3's. But in your case 7's? Wow that is alot of stuff to have happen. I think that appliances/electronics know when the warranty expires - that is when they break down.
Nothing comes in three's anymore! You are living proof of that! (okay except us having 3 boys but it took us 8 years to accomplish that) Things are never the way we want them to be, but you guys have such a great attitude and that is what gets you through it without going completely crazy. (you married into the Abbott family so you have to be just a little crazy for that) We love you guys and hope things go up from here for you. If you ever need dry wall and texture done and we are in town, we are experts at that! But matching paint... you're on your own for that one! Keep smiling!
