Broken.

In the past few weeks, more things have broken than I can remember ever being broken in my life.

1. My car
2. Cute brown shelf in the bathroom
3. Bracelet
4. Shelf in the shed
5. Grant's car
6. Vacuum cleaner #1
7. Couch (much attributed to a certain dog)
8. My nails...all of them
9. Vacuum cleaner #2
10. Towel bar
11. Door to the shed
12. Toilet handle (don't ask me how...)

Such a random assortment of breakage. It gets frustrating when it's all at once though. Fortunately, for the most part, we were able to fix and/or replace some of the items, although the toilet handle still boggles my mind. Not sure if I can go to Home Depot and ask for a toilet handle without being totally humiliated. Do they even sell toilet handles all by themselves? Maybe I should hit up my landlord for a spiffy new toilet that has a cushion seat and shoots water where the sun don't shine. Nah. That's way too European for me.

On the flip side...my really good friend is getting married today! Congratulations to Darcy and Adam. I always knew that Darcy would be a part of some horribly romantic love story one day, and sure as shoot I was right. I'm very excited to see her and her husband tonight...weddings are always so much fun. I'll be there...someday.

I do have to give a little shout out to Mother Nature for FINALLY getting off her streak of PMS and blessing us with some SUN! I made a deal with myself that if it snowed on May Day, I would officially be selling my belongings and moving somewhere that has sun - and lots of it. But, alas, she made me proud and the temperature actually broke 50 for most of the day! Certainly no cause for breaking out the bathing suit and blinding the neighborhood with my bright white skin - but it definitely makes me hopeful that Idaho isn't morphing into the North Pole. While I was a little miffed that I had to scrape ice off my car this morning, it turned out to be a beautiful day again so I'm not complaining. We're on a roll, Coeur d'Alene!
