Ever have one of those weeks...?

So, Fidget and I were busily counting our blessings...The house isn't falling in, our vehicles are running, we didn't have any major expenses. And then it happened. Every electronic gadget crapped out...simultaneously. First the cell phone went. So we got a new one. Then the house phones went (we have one of those cordless multi-handset thingies)...and we're still waiting on the new ones. Then the kitchen sink backed up and we had some sewer back up in our basement. One of the burners on the range top doesn't really work. The printer coughed twice and died. Our TV in the living room is going to be with Jesus soon...the sound works when it wants as does the picture...but usually one or the other works, just not always both at the same time. The washer is making an awful racket. The dryer sounds like a jet getting ready for take-off. I'm half scared to leave the office for a glass of water...I'm afraid what will die off next. And yes, all of this happened in the span of about 9 days.

But...As Dawn pointed out in the comments: There are still 38 shopping days until Christmas. That means, there is hope!
