We are having a WONDERFUL FREAKING day in this house and it's only 8:30. It's going to be a very long day.
I wake up, look at my phone, and realize that it is two minutes before the girls need to get on the bus. SUPER! I slept through my alarm. So I yell to the kids, "Hurry up! Dressed, teeth, hair, socks and shoes, GO GO GO!" I sleep walk to the sink to make the baby his bottle and find the water is not working?! REALLY SUPER! I start to panic just a bit...How will the kids brush their teeth? How will I make the baby a bottle? HOW WILL I MAKE MY COFFEE?? Slowly my brain kicks into gear and I remember that I have a full 2 gallon water cooler in the back of my car. Hallelujah! I will have coffee! Oh, and the kids teeth will be clean and the baby will eat. I lovingly wake up my husband with, "Babe! Get up! The water's not working and I need you to go get the water jug out of the car, now please!" With his first-thing-in-the-morning-I-hate-the-world attitude, he goes out and comes back in with the precious water. He seems grumpy and says, "Well, I broke it!" I ask him how the hell he broke the water cooler and he replied, "Not that! The car!" Apparently my handle to open the trunk of my car is now broken. EVEN MORE SUPER!
I believe the answer to all of this is to get back in my bed, pull the blankets over my head, and go to a place in my head where sexy, half-naked men are bringing me pina coladas and there's sand between my toes and waves crashing on the sand. I could stay there all day! But instead I got the kids off to school, I am going to help the hubby try to fix the water, call around for a part for the truck, and brace myself for whatever other craziness this day may have in store for me! Like they say, when it rains it pours!
