My house now smells like mildew. Lovely.
The carpets are still not dry. Not even close.
I started back to work this morning. Not much has changed there.
I'm working tomorrow instead of Thursday so I can accompany Brian to get his wisdom teeth out. I'm not sure if I'd rather be working or waiting for him at the hospital. It might be a draw.
Brian hasn't gotten home before 6:30 yet this week. Today he didn't walk into the house until 7:30.
There's major drama going on with one of his soldiers. He's having problems with his wife. He's staying in our guest room for the second night tonight. I feel bad for him. I don't know what the answers are, but I think both Brian and I feel some need to make everything better for him. I'm just not sure if that will be possible.
Brian really didn't need this on top of everything else going on at work. Did I mention he's doing the job of someone much higher ranking for the next two months? Yeah. Talk about stressful. Suddenly he's in charge of 20 guys instead of 8. He's tired and worn out and it's already Tuesday. I need to remember to thank MLK for the 4-day this weekend. Maybe he can recover not only from his wisdom tooth surgery, but mentally as well.
They're coming to start our sheetrock repair tomorrow. Whatever they do will need to dry before they finish it completely. I'm interested to see how well it dries when the humidity in the house seems to be holding steady at 95%.
The humidity? Totally making my hair look like crap. Awesome.
Because the carpets are still so wet, we're still camping out upstairs most of the time. Tiny hates it down there and I do too. I walked on the wet carpet in bare feet today - NEVER again. It was one of the grossest sensations I've ever experienced.
I keep waiting for things to calm down and start looking up around here, but it doesn't seem like we've turned the corner yet. I'm keeping my fingers crossed regardless.
So how are you? Hopefully much more relaxed and stress-free than I am at the moment.
