Murphy's Law

Things go wrong while my husband is gone.....always! Tomorrow it will be only two weeks that he has been gone and so far both cars have had warning lights come on, a snow storm with 7 inches of snow, an ice storm this morning, tomorrow we are supposed to get another 6-12 inches of snow (of course none of the news channels here can agree on the amount), and a few emotional choices that have been hard to make. This is all on top of the normal junk that happens when you have kids - colds, arguments, little household things break, and trying to work out the kinks of our system while he is gone just to have it down in time for him to come home. Pat is great and when he calls he listens to me complain even though it is difficult for him to listen and know he can't do anything from where ever he is at the time. So we are looking forward to him coming home so he can be here with us but I need a break from all these things, especially all these snow days! Thank goodness that we got him a snow blower this year, unfortunately I will probably be the only one to use it this year!
