I think our dishwasher has a slow leak. Actually, I am positive that our dishwasher has a slow leak that has been spreading under the floors in the kitchen.

Today I woke up to a little bit of noticeable water on the kitchen floor coming through the cracks in the wood laminate.

I am on a U2 kick tonight. We bought Roo (my teenager) a U2 album for Christmas but I actually misplaced it a while before Christmas. I just found it tonight and gave it to her.

The sun is barely shining, it’s cold and grey. We haven’t had much snow yet, but the weather channel is saying that a polar vortex may be on its way.

That will be super fun :/
