Please Make it Stop!

What a week! Yes, I am fully aware that it is only Wednesday. This is what happens when you get cocky about your life...

Last week I was in high heaven. I kept telling people how much I love my new job, how lucky I am to have my family around with whom I can rely on to babysit when I go to work, and how easy the transition has been from being a stay at home mom to working full time again.

Boy did I jinx myself! This week at work has been complete madness, I have had a non-stop headache from listening to so many complaints and problems, not to mention being forced to stare at a computer screen all day. Oh and the ease of working full time is officially coming to an end. The dear hubby goes back to school today which means that now neither of us will be spending much time with the kiddies. Which overall is not that horrible, like I stated before, we have wonderful family members who keep the kiddies while we are at work and school. But it still hurts my heart to know that I am missing out on those great cuddly moments we used to share on rainy days like today.

Speaking of rainy days, this morning was horrendous! While driving to work through the mist (tell me why when it rains, people drive like there is 4 inches of snow on the road) my windshield wiper decides to become uncalibrated (uncalibrated? Is that a word?) which means that the left windshield wiper is flying right off of my windshield and stays there. Definitely not good when you're driving 65mph down 275 in the rain during rush hour!

So there I am driving to work with my left arm out the window stopping the windshield from flying off to the next county...rain water is dripping down my arm and soaking my sleeve (I'm wearing a white shirt BTW...go ahead laugh it up, it is a great visual)

Needless to say, once I got to work I was ready to kill someone (did I mention that I didn't have my coffee this morning?) So here I am, cringing every time the phone rings. It's really hard to be gracious on the phone when you're having a bad morning.

Lesson learned, don't get too cocky. God has his way of humbling you!

  1. Just like God to do that humbling thing. I have had those days too (and months). I also wouldn't dare of braving the day without coffee, it's a necessity if anyone wants to make past 8:30am.
