One Of Those Days

I have to post this, because it's too sadly amusing (not at the time) not too. Today was pure HELL!!! I know most all of my posts show how much fun we as a family experience together. No, our lives aren't lollipops and rainbows everyday. Most days, but not everyday! ;) Today was one of those days that I would LOVE to rewind, redo or just forget.

I woke up an hour late. I forgot to set my alarm clock so Audrey wakes me up at 9:30 tugging at my arm to get out of bed. Poor Ava is teething and running a 101 temp and won't let me out of her sight. My fabulous hub hadn't left for work yet (he just got back in town from being gone for almost 7 days) and asked if I would iron his clothes, which I do every morning. I declined because we were already running late and I still had to dress Audrey, Ava & myself, make a bottle for Ava and pack Audrey's bag. He was huffin & puffin around (he HATES to iron and butters me up by saying I do a much better job than him:) as I was in the kitchen labeling Audrey's sippy cup. I felt bad and just grabbed his shirt out of his hands and started ironing. He tended to Ava, who was hysterical and ready for a bottle. We arrive at Audrey's school at 10:15. Class starts at 9:30. The director told me she would let it slide today since I'm never late, but we're supposed to have them there by 10am at the latest. So as I walk into Audrey's class with my tail between my legs for being scolded about my tardiness, I realize that I have officially lost my mind. Today was Audrey's (my) day to bring the morning snacks for all 16 children. I realized it the minute I walked in and the kids were sitting at their tables eating gold fish. It was as if they knew it was my day and forgot. I swear they were looking at me like goldfish was the worst thing in the world to eat. I felt about an inch tall! So after dropping Audrey off, Ava & I headed to Target. I had numerous items to pick up, but you can bet your a$$ I remembered the kids snacks and treats. That was something I was not forgetting again!! I get in the car and pull out of our parking space and look to my right, only to see that I have Audrey's happy nap sitting next to me in the passenger seat. Ahhhhh!!! I wanted to scream! Now my little girl will have to nap without her nap roll. I could've possibly cried if I would've let myself. I sucked it up and convinced myself that my day couldn't get any worse. I picked up Audrey. She was happy to see me even though I made her 45 minutes late & forgot her happy nap and snacks. We get home and Audrey & I are hanging Easter stickers in the window. I smelled the worst odor. I knew it wasn't her because I just changed her. And then it hit me.......... Marley acted sooo weird when the girls & I got home yesterday evening from the gym. He acted like he reaallllly needed to go outside and I left the doggy door down while we were out. I checked in every room because this has happened once or twice before but I found nothing, thank goodness.

I thought the house smelled a little strange today. I couldn't figure out what it was. I took out the trash, sprayed room freshener, lit some candles, turned on my scentsy warmer. "Now that's better", I thought to myself. I walk in the dining room to check on Audrey and...THERE IT IS! Marley left a HUGE Pile O Poo in the corner on my {just cleaned} hardwood floors {I guess it could've been worse if it was carpet}. I about threw up!!! So now I can officially say, I don't think my day can get any worse! I would love to blame my day on me just being overwhelmed, exhausted, stressed, over-stimulated, sleep deprived, etc.....but I think I'm chalking it up to being just 'One Of Those Days'!

Here's to hoping, tomorrow is a new and brighter day!!
