My Day
I didn't want to get out of bed this morning, stiff neck
Washed my hair but couldn't do anything with it
Made breakfast for the cranky youngsters
and fed the baby a bottle
She dribbled milk all over herself and my new blouse
I loaded up the kids in the car seat and took them to daycare
I was late for work, and traffic was a nightmare
My husband called my cell phone to tell me
he got laid off from his construction job
I got to the office (I'm a Tech Analyst)
My supervisor chewed me out
for misplacing the mouse
I went out for lunch and got caught in the rain
I left work early to pick up my new eye glasses (wrong size)
I then picked up the kids from school & daycare
Fed them all a quick meal
Drove the boys to karate lessons
And, then the girls to tap & ballet
When we got back home, all they wanted to do was watch TV
and, sing karaoke
instead of doing their homework
After much chaos, they took their baths & got ready for bed
And after much hounding, they brushed their teeth
Then I read them their nightly bedtime stories
They finally went to sleep
So, I tried to get a small workout in
Uh oh, I don't think all the 'fast-food' and
exercise is agreeing with me
Now, I think I'm getting a migraine
and, a runny nose
I'm pretty certain it's the flu
After a long and grueling day, I crawled into bed and was just drifting off
when I realized I had forgotten something
Dear Lord, despite the topsy-turvy day
I've had, I give thanks to you
For all the blessings you've bestowed
upon me and my family.
And next week, I'm off to the spa and pool for some
much-needed rest and relaxation with my girlfriend
That's how MY life is going.....so, how are things with YOU?
