Pee Water and the Devil Tried to Steal My Joy

Guys, yesterday was rough. 

I woke up (just a little late for work) stumbled into the bathroom;  like most people I had to relieve my bladder after being asleep for several hours....... so I took care of all that and (again like *most* people do) flushed the toilet.  Which went in the wrong direction.  Pee water flowed all over the floor and simply would not stop.  OMG.  OMG.  I was SO not awake yet, and I choose to believe that my dazed stupor was the reason no rational thoughts came to me.  I stood there for probably a good 30 seconds and just stared.  Then I frantically called Spencer (at work no less) to freak out.  ---still no cleaning has happened--  I blurt out my morning OMG moment and then ask frantically "whatshouldIdoOMG" and he replied with the most magical words "get a towel".  Smartest Man Ever.  I hightailed it into the hall bathroom and grabbed like 4 towels, because if 1 towel was a good idea 4 should be amazing.  So I mopped up all the pee water, except the water that soaked into the carpet just outside the bathroom.  I did the best I could on that.....(which is gross to me now and I haven't stepped on that part of carpet since...) 
I hurried up and took my shower and then rushed around the house taking care of the dog and running out the door since I was now like 30 minutes late for work. 

I have a secret.  I am not a morning person.  In any shape or form, I am just not.  At the best of times I am taciturn, and lethargic until about 9am.  This special morning wake up call of pee water did not help that.

All day yesterday I felt like there was nothing I could do to work myself back into a good mood!  Work was one of those days where I felt like my to-do list never moved, customer questions seemed inane and I bit my tongue to keep from telling them that (not my usual attitude toward our insureds I promise).  By the time I left work I called Spencer and informed him that the pee water and the devil stole my joy.  He laughed a little and said to hurry home.

I pulled in the driveway and was greeted by Spence and our dog, Spence immediately wrapped me in one of his hugs (I love his hugs) and just held me for a good 3 minutes.  and you know what?  I felt my joy coming back!  My parents came over for dinner last night, we had some projects we needed my dad and his tools for, and I wanted my moms opinion on what to do with now mostly empty storage room.  I made creamy chicken spaghetti and garlic bread and we had a lovely time!  By the time we went to bed that night I can safely say I stole my joy back from the devil and pee water.

Roommate not free

Well unfortunatly we are not roommate free just yet.  You know how yesterday I mentioned that the roomie was going to come and clean and take the last of her stuff from the house?  Well half of that happened.  She cleaned and took her food.  The items left in the storage room however stayed. 
After work yesterday I was super excited to run home before going to Nike to see what my storage room/basement looked like with only our stuff in it......You can image my surprise when I got there and found that it was still full of roomies stuff! I sent her a text that told her she left clothes, photos, a TV, lots of boxes, some gifts and a LOT of trash in the storage and she responded back that I could sell it or trash it she didn't care.  Friends, I saw red.  Honestly it wasn't that she left this stuff (she also left some things that we may be able to use downstairs-- a lamp a vacuum a big carpet etc--, but it was the assumption that she could leave trash all over and I'd just take care of it.  If she had said she didn't have time to deal with it all and would be back later in the week or said she was sorry for leaving it all I wouldn't have been nearly as upset.)   All in all this is what was left for me to deal with.

After I left Nike and I had had a few hours to cool down (IE refrain from cursing and screaming) I expressed my rage anger upset feelings and that I felt it was disrespectful of her to leave her trash for me to deal with.  She advised that she didn't intend to do that she just forgot that she had all this stuff......

Roomie will be coming tomorrow to deal with her stuff and *bonus* haul her part of the massive amount of trash to the curb.  Woo.
