When It Rains…

…it pours.
I had an appointment this afternoon for a 2nd roof appraiser (one recommended by my Association treasurer) to come out and look at my roof, but it’s POURING RAIN so hard that he called me to cancel, saying it’s raining too hard to get to where he needs to get to and see on the roof. It’s supposed to be pouring ALL WEEK so we’re gonna reschedule when we see the rain die down. :'( All the cups, bowls, and buckets are back up inside my bedrooms under the original leaks. Yes, I live in Southern California. Land of surfers and sunshine.
On the emotional issues front, I’m trying really hard to not be affected by Mr. W’s stressors. I’m trying to see his current upheaval with his ex (kids’ mom) as nothing more than an irksome dog barking away outside my home, angry but not really involving me or putting me in direct danger. Even with that, I wasn’t able to fall asleep very readily last nite.
Oh, and I haven’t worked out in 4 days. Because today, at lunch, I chose to have lunch with my new courtroom assistant and my floating court reporter (my regular court reporter is off surfing in Costa Rica) at a Japanese restaurant in Cerritos called “Kabuki”. I had 6 pieces of sushi, 6 pieces of spicy tuna roll, miso soup, and way too much unfiltered Nigori sake.
Can you put a tarp on your roof, to help stop some of the water from coming in?
I don’t have tarp, and I’m not sure if tarp at this point would be of any use. It’s already been raining so hard for so long. But so far, my old wet spots on the ceiling hasn’t gotten wet again, so maybe it’ll hold up.
sushi is my fave food. i don’t know how i’m gonna live without it when i’m preggers. i may just make do with california rolls, but it’s not the same. and i guess the baby would appreciate me laying off the sake too.
let’s do sushi next time!
YOU CAN’T EAT SUSHI WHEN YOU’RE PREGNANT????? WHOT the HELL. Nobody told me about this!!! What if I wipe the fish off with a Clorox Wipe first?
Yeah, I’m totally in for sushi. Anytime!
I’m impressed the way you’re holding together lady! —potential lost ring, issues w/ the Assoc, water leakings, roof probs, Mr W’s stressors…. AND not even working out?… mmmm, where’s the medal? ha ha ha
I’m afraid the “failure” on my part is the not working out. Working out is kinda like eating for me — I do it a lot when I’m happy, but when I’m upset/depressed, I get all katatonic.
hmmm. 🙂
I think I am the same way.. I don’t feel like doing a damn thing right now, so I’m on the internet and catching up on stuff i tivo’d. I REALLY should be working out… I really should be in an elliptical or something. Really. I should. Move here and exercise with me.
You move HERE and exercise with ME. We have better, uh, weather…
