For some crazy reason, I thought yesterday (June 12) was Fathers Day. So I invited the whole clan for a cookout/picnic. It actually worked out okay, since my daughter and family wouldn't have been able to make it on the real Fathers Day. But I felt rather embarrassed.

The irritations (see title) came about with my attempt to clean out and up the refrigerator. I tried to separate the glass from the plastic "holders in placers" to clean better. I did, but couldn't for the life of me get them back together! Oh, the aggrevation! Finally, I was successful.

Not so much, however, for the clogged kitchen sink. I've taken it apart underneath several times to clean, but the clog is in a bend under the underneath! There I was, two hours before everyone was to arrive (which became only one hour because of my stupid sister and father coming an hour early!), and I've got the pipes all apart, back together, leaking, not draining, and smelly like a sewer! Grrrrrr.

And I have food preparations to do! Noooooooooo! Not now!
I was in panic mode. Finally, I got it all put back together again, but it is still clogged. I tried "The Works", but no luck (3 times). I'll be working on it sometime this week.

And if bad things happen in threes, consider my windshield wipers on my truck. Needed replacement, bought some, tried to install them. One side successful, one failure. Why, I kept asking? I spent a good hour trying to figure out what I was doing wrong. What's the matter with me? So I took them back today and discovered the manufacturer packaged a defective wiper! "No wonder" the NAPA man said! He popped a new one right on. I felt vindicated. I wasn't as stupid as my refrigerator shelves, clogged pipe and wiper fiasco led me to believe. I'm just stupid in other ways!
