1/16 Dear Diary

My water pipe froze today cause it's cold out... I have never experienced this and I don't understand why anyone would choose to live in such cold weather. This needs to be fixed cause I don't want to go to work dirty... my hubby had to but he doesn't stink. I don't like to be bothered in the morning though, it makes me grouchy. Plus, I don't like going in my basement cause it’s one big spider web. So, hubby had to call my father in law to come fix it, since he rents us this house that use to be my hubby's grandmas house... till she died. It’s a really ugly house with a bathroom literally in the kitchen. I’m not exaggerating… the stove is right next to the bathroom, so while I am cooking I can smell hubby’s poo or my own. The place is cheap though, so we stay. My father in law comes over around 9.30am… I say hi and go about my business. After an hour he tried to use a phone that we have hooked up but doesn’t work. He said he would throw it out since it doesn’t work, but I told him to just leave it there. I don’t like people telling me what to do with my stuff. Besides, this phone cost us over $100 a few years ago… it’s really nice. I told him to use the other phone but he messed that one up… I got agitated. I finally fixed the other one and he made his damb call. Once he finished his damb call he wanted to fix the other phone… I got more agitated. I want to tell him to go away, but I can’t. I lied and told him I would give it to a friend who’s an engineer… he didn’t care and tried to fix it anyway. He told me he fixed it but I didn’t care, I just want him to go away so I can get ready for work. He tried to fix a door while he was there… I don’t know why he feels the need to fix everything. He finally went away and I got to take a shower, but I had to take a quick one so I didn’t shave.

This doesn't happen very often with me, but I can honestly say that I'm at a lost for words.

My granparents house is built the same way, kitchen next to the dining room table. Nooo Grandpa, wait till we finish eating before you go do your business.

I hope you and your stubbled legs had a good day thereafter? This reminds me of a time when I lived in a place like that.

What a way to start a day, huh? I'm one in wishing with C.C. that Lola's day was salvaged eventually - unshaved legs or not.
