It all started with food storage. I was cleaning out the downstairs closet. This is where we keep our food storage and odd and end stuff. I found, to my horror, that the water bottles had imploded. Who knows how long ago this had happened. Water was everywhere. I pulled everything out of the closet and also found mildew and that the carpet was ruined. I called my mom, she knows everything, and asked her what to do. Brett pulled out the carpet and then I scrubbed the closet with bleach to get rid of the mildrew, but in the process my rag got stuck on a nail (from the carpet) and bleach flew into my eye!!!!!!
I started screaming for Brett and ran to the sink to wash out my eye. Brett called our eye doctor and he told us to wash out the eye for 30 minutes. Well I was balling my eyes out (which I realize helped the bleach to come out) afraid that I was going to lose my eye and because it burned like fire and also because this just caps off an AWFUL week. After the 30 min. wash we get into the car ( I have still not showered because I was cleaning the house) drive to the eye doctor and he puts some numbing stuff in my eye and I start to feel better. Also told me that I am going to keep my eye.
Lucky Gwenie had stayed the night at my in laws because Melodie was nice enough to let me have a break. So Gwenie will have to stay over another night because I don't want her any where near the closet until it is all ok, which will take 24 hours. Let alone the mess my TV room is in with all the stuff from out of the closet. I am not good with messes like this I need organization and cleanliness.

Sounds like you've had an eventful week! Get some rest!
Is this the 3rd thing? "everything happens in threes."
Now I really want you to go to church, so I can see your eye (or you can just post a photo).
Can I borrow your in-laws??? I'm glad you got a break...R-E-L-A-X!!!
I hope you get things under control...no fun!! Atleast you got I little break from Gwenie!!!
I was going to say the same thing as that other comment ... is this the third thing?? Bad things do usually happen in 3's it seems ... so be careful if it's not! How did the bottled implode? Was there stuff stacked on top of them? That really sucks! I guess it's good that you found them now ... mold can get really icky and make you super sick. Did anything else get ruined by getting wet?
Marc wants to know if you have to wear an eyepatch? Because he thinks it would be really cool if Brett could call you guys Pirate Eye 1 and Pirate Eye 2. :)

E,
Yes Brett has totally been calling us both Pirate Eye. This was the 2nd thing, unless you count that fight I had with the bank/hospital, then it is the 3rd thing. It better be the 3rd thing because I can't take anything else. I will crawl into a hole and just live there.
