Today has just been one of those days. Oh you Mamas out there know what I'm talking about! When you look at the clock and see that it's only 10 a.m.!
"What only 10! You mean to tell me that this day is not even close to over!"
This morning Miss Grace and Mr. J had their well child check-up. It was an early check-up too, 7:40 a.m. piece of cake! I've taken them both to the doctor's together so why wouldn't this go smoothly? Right?
7:00 a.m rolls around and The Hubs WAKES ME UP, yes he wakes me up at 7:00 when my alarm was set for 6:00! Apparently my phone was in the other room and had been sounding for an hour and I never once heard it! Great. Awesome. I throw on clothes, couldn't even tell you what I ended up wearing. Just know that there was no way I was going to be able to work that getup. Then I realized that I was scheduled to be at work at 9:00. How in the world am I going to be able to get both of these kids to the Dr. then to daycare and then somehow get me presentable enough to get to work? The Hubs gets Miss Grace ready, I get Mr J. ready, put them in the car and I'm off! We get there and I see that we are the only patients. Good maybe he is on time and this will be an in and out thing. They both get the usual. Height, weight, Miss Grace gets hearing and sight check, both are complete with 4 shots, tears....oh the tears.
Shots and crying don't bother me. When Miss Grace was a baby I wanted to cry right along with her. Now it's almost like I'm immune to it. You get used to all the pokes, pricks. With all the testings these two have gone through I know that the tears will only last until we get to the front to check out.
After Miss Grace gets her princess sticker I get them both into the car and it's off to daycare. Now, I'm still a HOT MESS. There is no other word to describe the horrible way I am looking. I run them both in, throw them to their teachers and wave by as I'm halfway in my car. It's already 9:00. Great! Supposed to be at work right now. I rush home, jump in the shower, jump right out. Make-up on, hair dried and straightened (it's days like these I miss my long hair to just throw up in a ponytail and go!) clothes on! I get back into the car. 9:36. I did it! I will be at work before 10:00 when my store is to be open! Oh but wait. I forgot that I had been driving around two cities with my gas light on! How much better could this morning get! Then I realize that I don't have a single penny on me due to me losing my paycheck, yes I lost my paycheck but don't worry it was found where any human being would put it. In the middle of my fitness magazine! Duh! So then I have to drive over to The Hubs work, get gas money, get gas and open my store doors all in 20 min. Well I did it! I made it just in time! I got to work today at 9:59! So lets recap.
-woke up an hour late!
-got kids to Dr for check-ups on time!
-got kids to daycare!
-went home to shower and change!
-got gas in my car so I wouldn't be stranded on a major highway!
-clocked in at work at 9:59!
Moral of the story. The Hubs will be doing the next round of check-ups!
Oh and I didn't have time for my morning COFFEE! It's going to be a long long looonnngggg day!!!
Quite the morning! You know, always feel free to hit me up to bring you some Starbucks if you're in a pinch. B and I never, ever mind an extra Starbucks run ;)
