Elizabeth86 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 or at least it feels like it. Anyone else having one of those days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seasider Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 No but I am having a sand-running-through-the-hourglass-too-fast sort of day. Where has thebforstbhalf of September gone? I just realized the time frame for getting some projects done is shorter than I thought it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnE-girl Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 The mid-90s with high humidity weather we're having this week, and the crankiness that goes with it, might be the death of me. I don't want to do anything and neither do my kids. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarbecueMom Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I'm having an "I'm a total failure of a parent, what business did I ever have raising children, and the whole world is laughing at me" kind of day. *passes you the box of chocolate covered chocolate with chocolate filling, chocolate drizzle, and chocolate powder dusting* 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKL Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I'm having the kind of day where I almost* wish someone else would yell at me so I could quit yelling at myself. (Almost, but not quite.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halftime Hope Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Gahh. I'm sorry. I remember those days. My boss just griped at me unjustly (doesn't happen often, and he has been holding on by his fingernails all day), so if anyone needs one of those moments, you can borrow mine.

nixpix5 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 (edited) Today has been that "are you kidding me?" day. My 6 year old fell off of our trampoline (that has a net) last night. I think he didn't zip it and fell out of the hole. So he bruised his heal and twisted his ankle. He could barely walk at our co-op today so I am waiting for the doctor to get us in this afternoon. Meanwhile, my daughter has a sore throat and I just took her temp...she has a fever. She ended up skipping piano at co-op today but went to art and writing which means we probably got people sick without realizing it sooner. We are supposed to have a haircut appt in 45 min that has been on the books for a couple of weeks and I am not sure that is going to happen. On top of it, our now 7 week old litter of kittens can get out of their baby gate play hard, but are not fully litter box trained. So I came home to 5 fluffers running amok and leaving presents for us to find. Of course this is the week DH is on a work trip. I am not sure whether to laugh maniacally or cry. Still, I know things could be waaaayyyyy worse so I am trying to count my blessings. Edited September 21, 2017 by nixpix5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypatia. Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 When we started off the day with an uncontrollable meltdown at 6:30 this morning I knew it was going to be a rough one. It was, more meltdowns followed, along with an emergency call to said child's p-doc. Counting down the hours until bedtime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DH was just out of town for a week and for once, no one got sick or hurt. I'll be paying for that later, I'm sure of it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halftime Hope Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 (edited) I thought you'd enjoy this. This is my cousin's daughter-in-law. Laura and her husband live about an hour from me and are just darling. They are authentic to the core, and they are homeschooling. She's written a couple of innocent, joyful books for younger children, and they have exquisite illustrations. You can look them up on Amazon using her last name if you're interested. Ah, the mom life. Edited September 22, 2017 by Halftime Hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
