QOTD has moved
Just an FYI that the Question of the Day has moved.
She was standing in line
The principal of Zoe’s school just called me to let me know that Zoe was in her office, along with two other 5 yr. old girls, because at recess they pinned a boy down and were taking turns kissing him.
None of the girls are fessing up and saying who had the idea to do this, however my daughter’s defense was that “the teacher didn’t actually see her do it because she was standing in line, waiting her turn [to kiss the boy]”.
Had a bad day
…. or actually a bad week. It seems like I’m being pulled in a million different directions. School, work, family, fun, health, holiday, etc…. I don’t handle stress very well. In fact it makes me want to turn and run in the other direction. I’d rather avoid a situation all together, unless someone is accusing me of something that is completely wrong, then I’ll fight tooth and nail to set the record straight. Anyhow….. I don’t want to say that I hate the Christmas season, but whatever is right above hate on a scale of love/hate, that’s what I feel about Christmas. It makes me head spin, my stomach hurt, and my heart ache. All for different reasons. Of course it blows my diet, my budget, my plans to sit and relax.
Anyhow, my hubby’s had the mother of bad days today, and it makes my bad week look like a walk in the park. He was on his way home from work this morning at 8 a.m. when he blew out a (brand freaking new) tire on the Interstate. It’s 30 degrees outside and he had to change a flat all by himself. I didn’t catch my phone when it rang so his call went to voicemail, and then Zoe’s bus came so I was on my way to work when I finally got hold of him to see what I could do to help. He didn’t give his location in the message so I couldn’t do much until we connected.
He finally got his spare tire on and then his battery was dead from having his hazards flashing. Mother Trucker!!! Thankfully I was able to get him AAA Roadside Assistance right away. He was pissed, tired, hungry, cold, and kinda not in so much of a good mood.
The day is done now. He slept off his frustrations and then played some Xbox. I ran 4 miles, which seemed to help (me, not him). Tomorrow is my last class, then I have two weeks off. I really want to take a few months off between the end of this class and my next class, but that means I’d start over again in a new cohort (that’s group of students) for the remainder of the program. I want a break, but I don’t want to go into a new class. It’s a no win situation.
Let’s take your car
One of my headlights is out on my Honda. Tonight we had to go get Zoe from my parents house and I told my husband that we needed to take his car since it was dark out and I didn’t want to risk getting a ticket.
We both walk out into the garage at the same time. I made myself comfortable in the passenger seat and wondered where in the heck he was. Then I heard two small beeps, I turned and found him in the drivers seat of the Mazda. I was in the Honda. I couldn’t stop laughing for a good 5 minutes. I don’t know why I thought this was so funny, but I did.
