August...oh boy...

We are only 1 day into August and this past Saturday I gave myself a big cut in my index with my Lee Valley (very sharp) kitchen knife (cutting a slippery red pepper)...lots of blood but thankfully didn't need to go get stitches. A nice 'annoying' bandage done by my husband to keep everything healing nicely.  I did feel myself start going into shock and the various symptoms... it was actually kind of neat. That ended July.
This morning on our way to church my 4 year old lost his breakfast all over his seat & clothes so we turned around and came home to clean him up.  All cleaned up, lunch done, etc... we get into the van to all head to the 2nd service... the van won't start.  What??  The battery is dead?  Looks like it's actually the alternator... garage tomorrow and some $ to spend that was needed for something else...oh well, Edward got asked to go into work for the afternoon so we had no plans anyway.  What else will suprise us this month?
