Crazy Monday

So yesterday we had so much fun! ha ha. Our plan for the day was this. Go to my doctor's appointment. Meet the realtor to look at houses. Visit my brother-in-law and sister-in-law. Go grocery shopping. Come home. Have dinner. Go to bed.

This is how our day really went. Went to doctor appointment. Had to wait 45 minutes before I was seen. Call Nolan and tell him to just meet me at the first house we were going to see. Leaving hospital, Nolan calls and tells me that we're pushing the realtor appoinment back 30 minutes. Get home, grab Nolan and Oliver and leave. See 2 of the 3 houses. (not good houses) Start having car troubles. Need to eat lunch, so we go to Togos. Car is smoking at Togos, problem coming from power steering. We go inside because we need to eat anyways. Make lots of phone calls while we're eating. Wait for Nolan's dad to come get us. He follows us to sister's house so we can leave the car there for my brother-in-law to look at. Drive to Nolan's parents because the 3rd house is close to them. Leave Oliver, take my FIL truck to next house. Look at house, love it, 7 other people want it. Back to In-laws, chill, leave Oliver again, take truck to sister's house. Nolan works on computers, BIL looks at car. Replace power steering pump. So, Nolan and BIL go to buy parts, come back, Nolan works on computers more, eat dinner, pick up Oliver (BIL driving). BIL drives us home. Nice relaxing bath. Oliver finally to bed around 12 midnight. Hope to get car soon.
