    The past two weeks have been a literal nightmare. We had a visit from my GM's boss...FAIL, then my dad lost his job again due to employees who were, um, ya...FAIL, then this last week we had a base exercise so I never saw my husband...FAIL, then one of my job postings went stale so it had to be reposted...FAIL then inventory was last night...FAIL (but we did great!!!) and today was the final straw.... My protein skimmer pump was acting up so I took it out to look at it ,walked over to the bathroom, tripped over my furkid and dropped it on the hard kitchen floor along with me....It looked like Humpty's cousin twice removed...FAIL. I couldn't put it together but ordered a new one. On the bright side though, it should come in the same day as my new RODI unit!!! AND the exercise is over and I'm off tomorrow. Sorry for the long vent but dang the past two weeks have been a real winner.:cry:

    Dang, you have had a rough two weeks. :( Sorry, PetMother. Hopefully things will get better. Keep your head up. :)

    P.S. - We better see some pics on the new skimmer & RO/DI unit. :)

    Look on the bright side, at least the skimmer cup was empty and you didn't get hurt.
