"If it's not one thing it's another."

Monday, July 27, 1992

     Today would've been Vivian Totty's 36th birthday.

     I was supposed to fix spaghetti for supper tonight because Guy's supposed to have his PT test tomorrow. But I forgot and fixed chicken cause it was on the menu.

     He came home in a bad mood but I didn't realize it til I told him I couldn't get the VCR to do anything—he handed me Ez. & started working fiddling with it and got annoyed when Ez. & Chief were both trying to get their attention. I tried to keep Ez. preoccupied then I went to start supper & she didn't want to stay in the kitchen. Guy put Chief outside then when he started scratching on the door he let him in & made him go to his room. I was in a bad mood by then & it hasn't been a very pleasant evening.

     There was a storm earlier (around 7:30) & the weather channel said there was a tornado spotted in Norfolk. We looked out but couldn't see anything besides a storm. Ez. & I sat in the downstairs bathroom floor til the worst of the storm was past. Guy went to get his big flashlight out of the truck. I don't know if the tornado did any damage. Guess we'll have to watch the news to find out.

     Between supper & the storm, Guy took Chief to the vet for his distemper shot. That plus the checkup & stool test cost $40. And now we may have to spend money to get the VCR fixed. If it's not one thing it's another.
