It's time to scream

Allow me the moment to scream!

It's building up inside me and I think today I'm going over the edge.

All week long I've been struggling to get caught up.  No chance of that happening. 

My house is destroyed.  I kid you not.....you all think I'm exaggerating -- but you have no idea.  I'm not even going to post pictures of the problems.....because I am too embarrassed.

Last night at Pizza Zone was a DISASTER!  Phones did not stop ringing, deliveries were delayed by as much as 1 1/2 to 2 hours (and we working our butts off), customers cussing us out and cancelling their orders.  Gee whiz....couldn't they see that it was pouring out there and that throws everything off?  Now I've probably got 50 apology cards with discounts on them to send to everyone who got a really late delivery.

Get home last night at 10pm only to find the power is out.  Great.  Only thing to do is go to bed and try and get some sleep.  I saw the power trucks drive down the street so I assume they are going to get it fixed.  Well it came off an on about 5 times during the night.....would stay on for less than a minute.....then we could hear the transformer blow it out again.

Woke up this morning.....no power.

Ok.....guess I'll go run my errands since I can't do anything at the house.

Come home 3 hours later and the power is on, but the freezer has started melting and there's water everywhere and the refrigerator felt left out.....so she dumped some water on the floor too.

I walk out in the back yard and this is what I found.

At first I thought the tree had crashed through the fence, but it didn't seem possible that it would miss the pool.  Upon closer inspection it appears that someone cut the tree down and stacked it all up in our yard.  There is a power transformer box on the property line that has been getting crooked because of tree roots.....so we think maybe it was the power company that came in and cut the tree and decided that we were going to be the lucky ones to get rid of the mess.

So please......just give me a moment while I get out all this pent up stress.  AGHGHGHGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now it's time to act like a rational adult again and start getting busy.  It's going to be a long, long day.

P.S.  Hope it wasn't our power box that caused everyone to lose their power.....oops!
