Things fall apart

Sigh... Why does everything fall apart when Courtie is away! Andrea came over tonight for dinner because her hubby is also outta town right now. I was cooking some tacos for dinner and just as I finished browning the ground beef I reached up to put away the Pyrex measuring cup. Well, I guess I didn't get it set all the way down because the next thing I know it came crashing down, hit my wrist, hit the counter and exploded! Glass shards and dust everywhere! Including in the food. I mean shards flew all the way across the room. AHHHH what a mess. Andrea got here about 10 min later and entertained Alena while I cleaned up. It was such a mess, I swept and vacuumed and I am still finding pieces around. I am just sooo thankful that Alena is not crawling yet. I cannot imagine having to deal with that. I am gonna keep some shoes on for the next coupla days and sweep/vacuum again tomorrow. Oh and the glass scratched the floor. Its not a big deal its just the beginning of what I have to deal with without a man around. Last time Courtie deployed part of the ceiling fell down in the garage! The way it fell it wedged the garage door shut so I wasn't able to get my car out until it was moved. Luckily it didn't hit my car. I wonder what else is to happen over the next 8 weeks!
