Normal, Boring Day?!

Just when I think I am having a normal, boring day things got interesting. First, it started hailing at the school I work at, so I was stuck there and unable to pick up Joo until the storm let up a bit. Then I got to drive through the hail again on the way home. When I arrived home it was only sprinkling. I pulled up to get the mail and noticed that our back fence was bent outwards, which was not like that when I left this morning. I walked into the house, opened the sliding glass doors and looked out to make sure the dogs couldn't escape when I notice our trampoline is not in the backyard anymore, but lying on top of an orange tree in the lot next to our house. Now, my first thoughts are how did that happen, how are we going to get this thing back in our yard and how much will it cost to fix the fence. When Mr. Cash gets home we go out to take a look. Luckily, the fence can be pushed back up with no major damage. He calls in some reinforcements to come help get the trampoline back in the yard. While we are waiting for the men to arrive, I turn on the tv and get a message that says the satellite has not received a signal in over an hour and to call our satellite provider. Mr. Cash gets on the phone and finds out that it is our dish, not the weather and a technician has to come out to fix it. It costs $100 just for him to come out and he can't come until Thursday. The kids and I have to go 2 days without tv, 2 days when Mr. Cash will not be home. This is not good!!!! So to wrap this story up. . .the trampoline is back in the yard, the fence is vertical again and the dish technician is coming on Thursday.
