Our series of unfortunate events

The last week or two have been a bit challenging. About a week and a half ago Eric called me from work at 7:30 in the morning. As soon as the phone rang I knew it was bad news. He told me that when he pulled into the parking lot at work that morning, his tire fell off of his car! While we were really frustrated, we were grateful it happened when he was going 2 mph and not 70 mph! So $900 later, the car is fixed. UGH!!
Then-our kitchen sink plugged up late Thursday night. As of Saturday night we still hadn't talked to our landlord and I mentioned it to my brother. He told us what pipes we could unscrew and check. We did later that night and look what we found!! A butter knife!! It isn't our knife, so who knows how long it has been hanging out in our drain. Bizarre!!! Hopefully we are done with repairs for a while!!
