Do I have a "Screw me over" sign on today?

            Ahhh.. Friday.. TGIF.. After a week of paying bills, running errands, scheduling appointments, and tons of other stuff.. It's nice to see the end of the week! At least I THOUGHT it was going to be nice.. Yesterday I put an alarm clock in my kid's room so they can practice waking up to the beep on their own without me having to go in there constantly when school starts (IN A WEEK!). I should've left it for next week.. I woke up to both girls (And I set it for 8am just to be sure they can HEAR it..) standing next to my bed looking at me like they had been severely disturbed.. "Did the alarm wake you up?" I ask barely vocal.. "Yes! And it's very annoying!" Ok, after hearing that with the attitude in their voices.. I couldn't help but turn my head and smile. My kids are 5 and 8 going on 6 and 9 in the next month, they can most definitely start practicing getting woken up by the dreaded BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP! :) So that's where it started.. 8am... From there it all went down hill.. We got breakfast, got dressed, and started with our few things we had to do today before coming home and ENJOYING THE DAY. Let me paint you the scene of what it looked like outside... Blue sky, no clouds, beaming sun, nice breeze and barely 78 degrees.. NOT!! Dark cloudy sky, down pouring rain and already there are tons of puddles getting bigger in my driveway AND on the roads. I stand there for a minute just looking at the rain while my kids get in the car.. It was then I decided I just didn't want to go anywhere for anything. But I had to... :-/ So with a sigh, I crawl into the drivers seat and start to go. First stop: UPS. I get out, go in and resend a package I had originally sent out Monday. Blah.. Then off to get the last of the girls' school clothes.. I don't even need to go into how much fun THAT was but I'll give you a taste. "I want a dress." "No you're not getting a dress right mom?" "Yeah huh!" "No you're not, I want a skirt for the first day of school." "No I want to wear a skirt the first day!"... And so on... Then it was off to the beloved grocery store... First, I decide it would be quicker to take the road with no light.. No deal. You know those nice people who brake and let you out even though they don't HAVE to.. NONE of THOSE people were out today. And after five minutes with no movement whatsoever, I was finally able to turn RIGHT! (Ridiculous I know! And I would have put it in reverse and taken a different way except there were four cars waiting behind me.. GOOD LUCK!) So I pull out finally and am going down the road and I come up to a light. The light is green and I'm about to go straight so good deal all around! That is until an older lady to the right decides she doesn't want to wait for the light and so she pulls out in front of me... Not that that wasn't annoying by itself.. The fact that she didn't go past 15mph was driving me CRAZY! And no, I couldn't get over because of the traffic (Only to the side NOT in front of her!!!) and EVENTUALLY I would need to turn to the right to get to the store. Already totally annoyed (and having to use the bathroom...) I eventually make it to the store. The rain had let up at our previous stop which was good even though we parked in the front row closest to the store. The grocery store is a whole other story. Not only are we in the middle of the freaking parking lot but just as we pull in, like magic... RAIN! So now I'm getting soaked waiting for my kids to get out of the car and have to listen to both of them "I want to hold the umbrella!" Did I mention I was getting soaked? We make it to the crosswalk in front of the store and it was like trying to pull out all over again! Five cars passed before one stopped to let us walk in. They must've wanted to get their car home before it got TOO wet. Meanwhile, I'm standing next to two dry girls while I'm drenched and having to pee! I don't even think people could tell that I wet myself if it came down that. So we cross and make it inside. I go to grab a cart and before I could put my hand on it, another old lady came in the door and grabbed it! I mean yes... There were a ton of carts right next to me but I mean COME ON! I was 10 inches from the stupid thing! Grrr... Moving on.. I had three different aisles of "blockers". A blocker is someone who either leaves their cart in front of something someone else needs OR they STAND in front of what you need even if they're looking at SOMETHING else! So yeah, three of those in one trip is a bad omen all on it's own... By the time I was ready to LEAVE the store it came to the point where we had to wait in line in one of the four available lines (Out of 30!). Of course by the time I'm next in line I'm stuck behind a lady who breaks out a Ziploc bag of assorted coupons... I stood there as still as I could looking back and forth at my kids and the tabloids trying so very hard to NOT start doing the potty dance.. It was getting hard not to... Shoot me, shoot me, shoot me... I make it up and of course get a super (NON) friendly cashier! Now I have a choice that I'm finally DONE at the store... Go to my car.. Or go to the bathroom... I started hearing screaming kids behind me (Not mine thankfully!) and decided it was time to get the hell out of there! So back out to the rain we went. We make it to the car and all of sudden the van next to us starts sounding its alarm. Nobody touched it, we didn't even have a cart to run into it and we're stuck listening to "BOOO, BOOO, BOOO, BOOO!" I get in, back out and leave without thinking twice about it. My bladder starts throbbing even more as I hit EVERY red light from the store to my house... I finally got home and was able to GO and it was awesome. THAT was the best part so far of the morning. After that we read a few stories and I felt EXHAUSTED. But no naps for me... I've been zombie like for the rest of the day while doing the same chore like things I always do. Laundry, dishes, and whatever else. If there was ever a day I could crawl into a dark room and S L E E P, I think today would be it. :-/ Feeling pretty blah today and I'm hoping I can coast the rest of the night without anything ELSE pushing my buttons... Wish me luck!!! -Super Mom
