One of those days

Ever had one of those days when everything just seems to not go well? I am having one of those days. Nothing too extreme or horrible. But things like:

  • Couldn't find my keys this morning before school. Not a problem because we could walk. But, I knew that I was going to be bringing a bunch of stuff home from Sarah's teacher and I didn't want to carry it home.
  • I stubbed my toe so bad that I fell to the ground crying.
  • I was rolling the hose up in the backyard so fast that the end of the hose WITH THE METAL NOZZLE swung around and hit me in the shin. Cried again.
  • Got a minor little nosebleed because of the dry weather.
  • Stepped in dog poo.
  • The dog pooped in his crate (stupid dog) and I had to clean it up.
  • Ran out of printer ink.
  • Spilled El Torito Cilantro Pepita Salad Dressing on the floor and my white t shirt.
  • I have a minor health problem that I am too embarrassed to put in print is buggin' me.

ALL of these things happened before picking Sarah up at noon from school.

On a brighter note, an Abatement Officer from the Sheriff's Department told me this morning that the problems (several inoperable vehicles, roof shingles blowing everywhere, unsafe room additions and outbuildings, and several other things) with the drug house next door are all being taken care of. If their orders are not satisfied within 10 days, a Sheriff will come with a warrant and ....well you know. This has been a mission of several of our neighbors for several years to get this taken care of. Yippee that progress is being made.

Am I less of a friend if I'm cracking up reading about your "one of those days" days??!! If you have one of those days tomorrow, don't come with Lenny to the house - the saw might migrate your direction!

Hey Debbie: You are more of a friend if you crack up at that. And, don't think I didn't think of the saw dilemna. I might lose a finger.
