Today is already a great day. A serious malady in our home has been eradicated -- an annoyance so mighty that every member of the family had complained at GREAT length (including me).
We had a leaky faucet.
Drip. Drip. Drip.
No matter what we did, how we turned it, what we placed under it we could still hear the drip, drip, drip.
I nearly lost my mind.
I could tell you a long and particularly winding story about why our pretty decent 6 year old Moen faucet had to be replaced, but you would be bored and might turn to Peanut M&Ms for solace. Suffice it to say, I ordered this bad boy faucet on the Internet and it arrived yesterday. My man installed it this morning. The silence in the house at this very moment is glorious and undisturbed and, strangely, reminding me of Peanut M&Ms.
Other good news? Madison tells me Tuesday night that her front tooth is hurting. Really bad. Knowing my children's propensity towards ye olde cavity, I called the dentist the next morning. (He loves to hear from me. Cha Ching!) Seriously, I was imagining bad stuff happening right there at the front of her mouth -- decay dancing among those perfectly straightened teeth. Went to the dentist this morning...nothing wrong. X-ray looks perfect. He thinks she may have hit the tooth and irritated the pulp.
Pulp...it's the bane of my existence.
Two good things so far -- new faucet, no cavity. This day is really shaping up.
High school football tonight. Pee wee football in the morn. Yeehaw!
I think I have that same faucet on one of my sinks, but sadly, don't have that cow. Mooo.
