Testing, One Two Three...

I have not been uplifting in a while. I know this. I'm sorry, but this blog will be about real life or nothing at all. So to sum up today:

• rat poop all over our kitchen floor (after finding one in the toilet two days ago).
• mold in all the curtains.
• mold in the bathroom such that I had to throw out my Clinique makeup bag, all of our toothbrushes, and scour my mouth guard container.
• mold in the kids' bathroom.
• burst pipe in the kids' bathroom which is, at the typing of this blog post, flooding the floor. Then why am I posting, you ask? Because there's not enough room in there for me to be useful.

I feel hard pressed. I feel harassed. I feel like we're being tested. I hope I pass this one.
