- My day started at 5 am with a little girl waking up and talking in her bed, then crying...so I got up and of course you get to the bed and she smiles! Who can be upset when you get a smile? After nursing for a few minutes she went back to sleep so I went back to bed too.
- I drug myself out of bed about 30 minutes later, got ready for the day...at least I thought I was ready...
- Went to Starbucks...left Starbucks only to notice that I never took my eye makeup off last night, I had black under my eyes and had failed to put my makeup on this morning...how embarrassing!
- Got to work, realized I didn't have my parking pass because I was driving Scott's car today because he has to go to court for a ticket we got for no registration on our car ~ long story...needless to say it's not our fault. Our registration is tied to another vehicle and we can't seem to get it fixed.
- Luckily I flagged down the parking lot guy, who drives a golf cart around our lot all day...he was nice and told me he wouldn't tow my car and would tell the guy that comes in at 2:00 not to tow my car because I don't have my sticker
- Get to my office...I don't have my key to get into my office because it's on the key ring Scott has. Use my phone to email someone in the office and they come let me in :)
- Work on revisions to a 34 pg. document that MUST go out today...only to close it and not be able to find it until I'm almost in tears 15 minutes later (it was in the wrong folder and for some reason when I searched for it...that didn't work)
- Decide it's time to pump...only to discover I left my power cord at home...I live 7 minutes away (thankfully)
- However, taking 4.5 hours of my day on Tuesday to take a PhD course means I have to make up 4.5 hours somewhere in my week...so going home is not in my daily allotment of time...
- Oh well, came home, ate a brownie (needless to say I have issues with stress eating and today I just want fried food and junk food...that's a whole different blog post)
- Expecting the plug to be in the wall...it isn't there...yep, it was in my bag the whole time, just in a different pocket.
So, all of this before 2pm. Why am I ranting in my blog? I don't really know. However, as I close this post and head back to my office, I must say. I have a lot to be thankful for:
- 2 working cars (even if the Focus aka Bofus isn't the best to drive); if we didn't have 2 working cars I wouldn't be able to come home even when I need to
- A flexible job, that gives me the freedom to come home when I need to
- Amazing coworkers, who help me when I'm in a pinch. We are a great team!
- A husband that lets me call him and vent :)
- A beautiful healthy daughter
So, my day definitely wasn't perfect, but I have a lot to be thankful for!
Just one brownie....you did good! I'm thinking the whole pan would have been gone if this was my day ;-)
