not really.
today was the worst groundhog's day.
Today was Monday, my first day back to work in 2 weeks. Riley has his 2nd case of strep throat - that was confirmed yesterday in emergency care (because I knew I wouldn't be able to leave work today since I was expecting to be super duper busy.)
Go to warm up the van : dead battery in the van
one phone call and Papa was to the rescue taking me to work and taking the boys with him (THANK YOU GRAMMIE FOR SENDING THE RESCUE!)
next call to Eddie - don't worry - I will look at when I get home
get to work only 10 minutes late
2 weeks of backlog/problems/stuff sitting on my desk
no car = no lunch errands- thank goodness for hot pockets
getting thru the day
missing my afternoon nap
3:40 hits - i take a phone call and gracefully dump my glass of water all over my keyboard, mouse and desk!!
get everthing dried up - keyboard is typing funny, the mouse won't work. thank goodness for back up computer on my desk. Switch out keyboard and mouse - still not working right. Call the helpdesk - no quick response. I am dead in the water - no work can be done on the windows driven system
4:30 pm - my taxi appears (aka Papa & my boys) we ride home to the sounds of Riley's ABC song & Brady's jabber.
Get home, dishes, vacuum, warm up leftovers. Hubby saves the day with replacing the old battery with a fresh new one - I get to hold the flashlight.
boys to bed.
Get online to pay some bills- WHAT? They were due 1-31-09, a $39.00 late fee and my interest rates are jacked up so high it hurts my feelings.
Check facebook for some new friends.
8:01 pm preparing to do some laundry than watch the new heroes with a big bowl of mint chocolate chip
maybe I should have stayed home one more day to enjoy this
brady & riley sharing the same chair watching Thomas the Train
and I don't even know if Phil saw his shadow or not.
holy moly, what a day, Rachel! Glad you're home and resting now. :)
