The Worse So Far
Okay, so I have had many bad experiences in working on this house. That is to say the least. It has been pretty much a constant state of bad experiences. Well, today was the icing on the cake. I went to buy doors at a local discount home improvement store, and they were out. They were not going to get more for a very long time. Since they were the cheapest by far, I wanted to try another store. Their other store is in Chattanooga, TN--2 and a half hours away. Well, I was feeling ambitious after the kids woke up from their naps, so I went to go get 11 doors by myself with a 20 month old and an 8 month old. Before I left I made sure I had enough time to get there. I asked the person on the phone what time they closed--7 pm. What time zone-- Central? Not Eastern? No, Central. Well, I got there at 6:15, and they were closed. Apparently, It was Eastern time zone. I am going to have some words with their manager tomorrow. It is now 9:45 pm. I just got home, and I still have to give the kids baths and put them to bed. After screaming when I got there, I had a good chuckle on the way home. Good times. :)

Oh wow Courtney! I'd totally have some words with that manager. It might help if you have Emma Jane or CJ screaming in the background for good emphasis on traveling with 2 YOUNG children. But, kudos to you being so brave to make that trip!! =]
Oh no Courtney! That sounds terrible! I am so sorry. Hopefully they would have someone to help you put those 11 doors in your car. Dang, I can't believe it was closed. That totally stinks. You are a trooper. Hope your day goes better tomorrow. Love ya!
Thankfully, they are sending the doors to Birmingham, and they will be here on Tuesday.
court you're amazing!
You are one brave Mama, and that store clerk was an idiot. I can't believe they didn't know what time zone they were in. Yall are doing a great job on the house. I know you'll be glad when it's finished. Hopefully, you won't have to do this again so soon.
