I am so done with this week...

What a week it has been... Saturday my oven broke.  Like broke, broke.  I do have a very handy husband so he was able to fix it.  Most people wouldn't have however.  Not to brad, but I have a very useful husband.  Did I mention that my furnace broke the Saturday before and we were without heat for 4 days??  Brian fixed that too!

Back to the over,  we had a baptism last week and Brian threw a batch of cookies in, set the timer and came in to the bedroom to brush his teeth.  He came back to the kitchen with about 4 minutes on the timer still and the kitchen smelled like it was on fire!  He opened the oven door and the cookies were on fire!!  He attempted to turn the oven off but it wouldn't do anything!  We threw the cookies outside and opened every window in our house.  It was about 20 degrees outside.  It was AWESOME!!

Brian assessed the oven and we still couldn't get it to turn off.  The only thing that would work was to flip the breaker.  But upon flipping the breaker back on, the oven would come on!  And not just on, the only setting it had was high broil.  So  My oven was on high broil for about 7 minutes to 'pre-heat' and about 7 for the cookies.  My house still smells.  Why do all these things happen on Saturday and we can't get parts?!

After the baptism Brian ripped the oven apart and did his engineering/geek thing.  I am very grateful for  his 'smartness.'  We finally got out oven up and running Thursday evening.  You know when the power goes out you still attempt to turn the lights on out of habit? Same thing with the oven.  I kept trying to turn it on.  It amazed me how often I use our oven and stove for things!  It was an interesting week of cooking at my house.  Don't judge me.  I still need to clean it.  That will be a chore.

Episode number 2.  Also on Saturday.  We were at our friends house and their son hit our car.  Do I need to say anything more??  We were very blessed to find a shop that would pop the trunk out and he didn't charge us anything.  We will just live with the scratches.  It does look way better now I will say.  Our car, the Golden Nugget is not even a nice car but man the estimates were really high!!!  Logan, you need to learn how to do body work!

A week later, my furnace broke and got fixed.  My oven went out and got fixed.  My car got hit and somewhat got fixed.  Someone ran a red light and missed the Golden Nugget 2 by inches.  Can I just say I am so done with this week.  I need Idaho to come quickly. Enough Said.

 I took this picture last year and never posted it because I thought about using it this year on a Christmas card but I never got around to that.

 Who needs Bob the Builder, I got Brian the Fixer!!

Here is the after... No dent.  Just Scratches.  I will live with it to save $900 dollars!!!  Seriously, it was that much to fix.  It is not very noticeable now.

 They look like hockey pucks!

 My poor pan...
