Surprises

Monday I was talking to a friend on the phone and was telling her about Johnny and that I might not see him again. When I got off the phone with her I had a voicemail so I checked it and it was Johnny's mom calling to tell me that they were in town. I was so excited to see him and how much he has grown in the last 2 months. Tuesday Jamie brought him over for me to watch while she did some packing and other stuff. Johnny is the cutest little boy, he wasn't sure of everything at first but hes getting used to it now. today will be the third day I've had him and its been fun watching him again for a few days.

Another surprise and this isn't a very good one. Last week Todd was complaining about the bathroom smelling like sewer, well I had a stuffy nose so I couldn't smell it. A few days later I started smelling the smell so I cleaned the bathroom really good and that took it away for a little while well then I could smell it again and it kept getting stronger to me. We would leave and come back to a really strong stinky smell. So we got the maintenance guy to come over and he said overthing looked fine as far as toilet was concerned, but then he said it could be our pipes in all of our drains so he said to dump baking soda and vinegar down the drains for a few days and that should take care of the problem. We dumped that down the drains that day, well that night I was laying on the couch and all of a sudden the smell was really strong again so I got on the floor and smelled the central heating vent that right by the couch and that strong smell was coming from the vent, so I went to all the other vents in the trailer and the same smell was coming out of all the vents. Now we don't know if theres something dead (Like a Dead Skunk) or if its something else, or if the floor is rotting in the bathroom so the vent in the bathroom is picking up the smell and carrying it thru all the other vents who knows. So now we have that to take care of, it is better than the skunk smell but its still a grose stinky smell.

Rotten luck! ;) I was overhearing you tell Mars about this the other night, I am soo sorry!! WHEN Is the maintenence guy coming over to clean the vents? I agree with Jill, maybe it's time to search for a new home, unless you don't mind having so many visitors :)
