OMG, I am heading home!

This may look primitive........but what do you think of this for a holiday away from work?????

My poor mother has radiant heat in her floors, and it is getting COLD.

So.......guess what??

(my fave pic from the owls head transportation museum)

My mother's hot water and heat has been on the blink for 2 of my 3 day visit.

The fireplace works so it is warm in the house.

But.....COLD SHOWERS?????

I may as well be camping out. UGH!

It is like a freak show ....

she calls the repair service, they come and work on the system for 45 minutes, and VIOLA, it is working!!!

We rave and say: " You are brilliant, Thank You, Thank You."

Then my mom says her normal 15 min. schtick: "My daughter hasn't been here for a year and this happens...."

 .....And now we can finally go out to do something,

when we get back there is NO HOT WATER.

But WAIT! There is more.

The next day, yesterday, the whole thing starts all over again.

We call the heating service, they come, they fix, we thank and...

As we are getting ready to leave the house it starts to stink like rotten eggs.

OH NO!!!!!

There is water pooling around my mom's feet at the computer in the kitchen.

We think the dog made a pee pee, but upon further investigation I see

is starting to pool all over.

I say to my mom, "I think this might be a septic tank back up!"

I knew someone who once who told me a story about a septic tank issue just like this.

Trust me, I am a city girl (though I long for a horse farm) I know nothing about having a septic tank.

And apparently niether does my mom.

LOL :)

Well, if you could have seen her face.....

her eyes popped out of her head like they were on springs.

She screams and starts to mop.

After the emergency DOODY BALL TANK TRUCK (septic service) arrived it all ended up ok.

Thank G-D for the tuberose candels I had given mom.

I am exausted reliving this .

We are on our way to Portland Maine, for my flight home.

Trust me on this......my mother is and always has been LUCILLE BALL.

Something will happen on our way there.
