Well f*ck me six ways to Sunday.
****WARNING: FOUL LANGUAGE AHEAD****
Three days until DD's birthday party and we have no kitchen sink and no dishwashers because the disposal broke.
Before Thanksgiving, when I had the flu.
And we have two sinks, a counter, and two dishwashers full of dirty f*cking dishes.
We had 5 days off over Thanksgiving, and DH was not sick the entire time but he "didn't feel like messing with it." He also didn't feel like emptying the water out of the stuff soaking in the sink BEFORE removing the waste pipes under the sink, and of course some of it spilled when I was taking it to the bathroom to pour the water out. The stuff that spilled included a sippie with sour milk. Nor did he remove the contents of that side of the cabinet, so it is now covered in nasty sour, tepid water. I'm not really pissed at him, it's not his fault and it's not like he doesn't also work FT and also hasn't been feeling well. I'm pissed at the timing of the situation.
Thank god Taytee is taking care of the cake (because she's a goddamn rockstar), our housekeeper is coming today (but obviously can't help with the dishes or fully clean the f*cking kitchen!), and I have MOST of the party shopping done (today was supposed to be Costco to get pizza, veggie platter, and fruit tray but since I needed to clean out my fridge first that's not going to happen because I don't want to add MORE dirty dishes to the fanfuckingtastic pile). I still need to put shiit away in the guest room since FIL is staying this weekend, and attempt to clean off my craft table because it's the first thing you see when you walk into my house. Oh, and a friend is giving us a fridge for our garage so I need to clear out a space for that as well before DH and FIL go get it on Saturday. I need to finish the party favours, too, but at least that's pretty quick. And fix H's She Ra costume from some Wizard World madness, so she can wear it to her party. Because it's not a superhero party if She Ra isn't there!
ETA: I also worked from 7am-10:30pm yesterday, finally fell asleep at 12:30, and woke up at 4 to say goodbye to DH before he flies to Dallas for the day. I realized the craptastic situation and gave up on going back to sleep. I don't do well without enough sleep, especially when I'm already run down from having been sick.
Is it counter-productive to take Xanax with my Adderall and caffeine?

I thought about that, but DH will be home tonight so he's going to replace the disposal then. There's no way to make the sink usable until that's done, and the cost to have somebody come out TODAY would be pretty high. :-/
If I have to, I'll wash all of it in the bathtub. But I don't wanna!!!! In part because it means I'll have to wash out the tub afterward!
At least the rest of my house will already be clean...?
That seriously sucks. It really frustrates me when my DH's procrastination makes things so much harder than they need to be. His view is, "well, did it get done?" and mine is, "yes, but it was so much more miserable and stressful than it really needed to be."
Hope the day goes quickly!
Schlep that sh!t to the bathtub and get it washed before the cleaner comes- that way she can clean the bathroom afterwards.
Sorry- that sounds like a f*ing mess. You can do this!!! You can be She Ra's super hero before the party! She's gotta learn somewhere, right?
