Our Bad Luck :/

Lately we've just had the worst luck ever!
We've had a lot of plumbing problems in our home lately. We decided to get it all fixed around the beginning of April. Well, It turns out that it's something MUCH worse than what we expected. Our sewer line in our house has been leaking and we had no idea. We were going to get our sand point(well)/pump fixed/replaced. Well, we can't do that now until we get the sewer line fixed. We decided that our best bet was to get a well outside the house instead of the sand point. I don't think we could do a sand point anymore anyway since that spot has been contaminated with sewage. :/ SO...Basically a $2,000 job turned into a $10,000 job. We're trying to save up some money right now to pay for it all.
All I can say is thank God for Seth's parents!!!!! They have let us stay in their home until everything is all fixed.  It has been really great! The girls get to spend some much needed time with their Grandma, Papa and Aunt Lisa. And I get to spend some much needed time with my Mom. Since she started working we have barely gotten anytime to hang out and talk. So I guess there's some good news in there! :)
After that great news(sarcasm)... Seth tells me that my inner tire rod on my car was shot and needed replaced. So I haven't been able to use my car. But I did make an appointment to get that fixed next week! Can't wait to drive my car again. I love driving Seth's truck, but I HATE that it's such a gas hog!
In the middle of April we all came down with the stomach flu. It was Samantha's first vomiting episode. Poor girl just kept throwing up. :( I felt sooo bad for her! But she did great running to the toilet when she needed to. Then Ella got it the next day, as did I and Mom. Crappiest couple of days ever! I hope none of us have it again for a long time!
Last week we found out that Ella has Croup and her first ear infection. She was pretty dang miserable!! But seems to be doing 100% better this week! She's not the greatest medicine taker at all! So I find myself hiding it in her milk or her yogurt. Her check up is on Friday.
Yesterday we found out more bad news.
Thursday, May 9th, Samantha is scheduled to get her tonsils and adenoids taken out. This girl has some HUGE tonsils!! Even the ENT said they were "humongous"! Just in the past few months they have been giving her a lot of trouble. She has been snoring, which wakes her up at night, coughing, choking on food, not eating as much and has a little pain. I am sooo nervous for her! The recovery won't be fun, But I will be so grateful when this is all over with. Hopefully she'll be a lot happier girl afterward. :) *fingers crossed*
I don't know about you, but I'm ready for some good luck to head our way!!!!
