Today was one of those days. It started off going good but then took a turn for the not so good. Today is the day that I grocery shop. Today would have been the first day that I see how this day all works out with an appointment scheduled in but it didn't go that way.
My five year old gets on the bus at 7;43 and my three year old has to be at daycare at 9, no earlier. My oldest normally likes to walk to the bus-stop and cried when I told him to get into the car. Good thing because by the time we made it down the street, it began to rain. As soon as I parked the car, the bus was coming down the hill. I put him on the bus and got back into the car. When I do the grocery shopping I normally go to Target and then Costco. The three year old and I made it to Target before it opened and by this time it was pouring. When the doors opened at 8, we were in and out by 8:30. After I put my three year old in the car and the groceries in the trunk, we were off to drop him off and he was on time and the rain stopped. I then went home to put away the groceries and get ready for a 10:00 appointment.
At exactly 9:45, the home phone rings and I see that it is my five year olds school. I answer and I have bring another set of clothes. I get into my car and speed to his school. I call my appointment and tell them that I am running five to ten minutes late. It wasn't going to be a problem since I had until fifteen after the hour to get there. I leave the car running and run inside the school to the office to give them the change of clothes. My lil guy is in the office crying and I find out that there is more to the story. I change his clothes and sign him out. He would have been getting ready to get on the bus anyway so.....
By the time we get in the car and get moving the rain starts again along with some wind. He and I head to Costco and we are in and out. I have to make another run to Target. We get home and I put away the things that we picked up at Costco. When that's all done, we go to pick up the three year old who always seems to want a donut when we pick him up. There was no rain going but on the way home there was a whole lot of rain coming down. I notice that on the ride home it is very quiet in the back. The first stop light, I turn to see that they are both asleep.
When we get home the rain is coming down hard so we sit in the car until the rain eases up. Well they sleep and I check out videos and status updates on my Facebook newsfeed. The rain finally eases up and it's pure hell trying to wake them up and get them out of the car but I do. We get inside, I make them their lunch, do a load of laundry and clean up a mess that they made, make sure the five year old does his homework correctly. Try to relax but never do.
And to top it all off, today began "that time of the month" for me so you know momma wasn't really feeling this day at all. Oh what a freakin day!!!
