A Week in the Life

I'm one of those people that always seems to have a story. You know, the one that got a speeding ticket, a flat tire, and ran out of gas on the way home from getting fired at work. Okay, well, maybe I'm not one of THOSE people...but close. I've been incredibly lucky in the big things...the wonderful husband, the healthy children, and great friends. However, I seem to always have these crazy things happening to me. So here's a week in my life....

Monday: On the 25 minute commute to preschool, on a stretch of road that we are unable to pull over on, my son had an accident in his car seat. He begged for us to pull over but waiting in line at a toll booth on a bridge made it impossible. (Note: Cleaning urine out of a car seat is an incredibly difficult job).

Friday: Hmmm! Let's see how to put this simply. On Friday night, while my husband worked on the holiday, my dog escaped from the yard. We found her tied up in the backyard of a neighbor. We were unable to easily get her back and had to rescue her through an elaborate recovery operation. Thankfully, she is home and she is safe and I'm assured that my husband loves me.

Sunday: My husband and I have been enjoying little bits of time where the monkeys actually enjoy playing with each other without mom and dad's help. Unfortunately, in those 20 minutes of tranquility, the monkeys slipped into the bathroom with a full bag of wipes. Can you guess what happened when you put together wipes, a toilet, and two mischievous monkeys? Two inches of water and wipes absolutely everywhere.

So that's three crazy little moments...There's sure to be more to come.
