Murphy's Law

It never fails! Really. It's a given and I have grown accustomed to this. Whenever Nate leaves, be it for a few days or a few weeks or a few months things have a tendency to go wrong. It's called Murphy's Law and if I had the chance to meet this Murphy I'd likely have a few words with him. Just when I thought things were going so smoothly this week it all came crashing down today. Finley has been just wonderful all week, today; grumpy boy. The dogs have been really well mannered all week, today; vomit, rough-housing inside and muddy paws. Nothing has broken all week- today; the shower head... while I was showering. Any new mom knows that these few minutes to shower are precious. Not only are you not sure when you are going to get them, your never sure if it's going to be long enough to even rinse out your conditioner. Well after drying up the bathroom (somehow water managed to spray EVERYWHERE when the thing cracked) I was a good Miss Fix It and removed the old one (holy crap was that on there tight!) and put a new temporary one up- I am going to let Nate put the fancy one up. Let's face it... he will be home in 2 days and I have a million other things to do. I know Murphy will show up once again when Nate leaves for Iraq and I'm saving my skills till then.
