So last night I wanted to make dinner, but had half a sinkful of dishes to clean first because I thought my dishwasher was broken...

Well i put the dishes in there to try again... and this time the cycle went though so i'm going to keep my eye on it, but I may not need to replace it or have boyfriend look at it in December, YEAH!!!!!!!

Luncheon with my mom, her friend, and my sister actually WENT WAYYYYY BETTER than I expected it too...

So of course this week, actually last night, my sister decides to flip out on the entire world and cause sooooo much family drama that my mom isn't speaking to her now... and my sister is now refusing to come to Christmas dinner... and my mom's upset that I got her a dog for her birthday (but she's forgiven me now)...?

Guess the drama will continue for a bit. At least Tomorrow i'll be marathon training and can take some frustation out on the pavement if need be.
