Everything falls apart at once

So this week has been crazy! Sunday night our heat pump died! Then monday morning I woke up with the stomach flu. It is definatley montezuma;s revenge. I have not felt so miserable in a long time. I tried to get up to feed the boys and both times I threw up it was not very fun to say the least. Stephen came home from work to have the guy fix our heat pump only to discover that it is busted and it will be cheaper to just replace the entire thing. It is going to cost 6 grand to fix it not at all cheap. Last week we discovered that someone had turned our fridge off. I thought it was leaking and that we were going to have to buy a new fridge but no one of the kids I had been watching turned off our fridge. Now with the heat pump going out it is not our week. So the Sales guy came by yesterday to tell us how much a new Heat pump will cost. Ouch. It is really hard not having heat especially since is it 30 degrees outside or less. Alex came home from preschool yesterday and threw up. Let's just say I will never have tuna fish in this house again. Having to clean up barf when you are already sick is not a pleasant experience. We have a kerosene heater and a space heater and are trying very hard to stay warm. unfortnanly the heat pump can't be replaced until monday so we are trying to find more wood to burn in our fire place. I am trying really hard to stay positive but it is really hard when I am not feeling good and I am trying very hard to stay warm. It is even hard to fix food for my kids becasue food does not sound all that appetizing right now. I do know that The lord is aware of me and that this to shall pass. What a way too start the new year though. I really hope that there is something really awesome in my future becasue right now just stinks.
