Ugh! One of those days

Is it really a Wednesday, 'cause it sure feels like a Monday.

I woke up with a sore throat, AGAIN. I have, seriously, been sick on and off for about 2 months now and I'm so completely and totally over it.

Then I started my period this morning. Not feeling too terrible from that yet, but ya know, it makes you just "blah" anyway.

Then Claire mysteriously can't fine one shoe this morning. One shoe. She just wore it yesterday. She didn't wear shoes (just socks) when we took Wes to school this morning. Then she wasn't allowed to watch any morning TV until her shoe was found. She never found it. I even looked for it, couldn't find it. I threatened to keep her home from school (since it's just preschool). But I'm paying for her to go and can't justify not sending her.

So this morning, I will be spending my "alone" time not reading or fooling around online or scrapping. But I will be in her room with trash bags, throwing away tons of CRAP that she has in there. Of course I'll have another bag to fill w/ stuff to give away. But that's why her shoe is lost, because there's so much crap in there.

So, commiserate with me, please. Tell me that your day is starting out almost as bad as mine.

(One good thing, I talked hubby into going out for Mexican for dinner. So I don't have to cook. Yippee!)
 
sorry sweetie - I got SUPER lucky this morning. DS, who hasn't slept past 7am but probably TWICE in his life, decided to sleep until 7:25 this morning. And since I knew I didn't have any early meetings...I stayed in bed, too!!

Sorry you're having a bad day. Hope it gets better!

I've been cleaning out the kids rooms and playrooms like crazy lately...throwing stuff away and donating a ton. It is so refreshing to just GET RID OF STUFF.

I've also been watching Hoarders on A&E though, so maybe that's why I feel the need to purge...:p
 
awww! I am so sorry Kresta!!!

I have had a month like that. Nothing seems to go right and I am depressed because I haven't even seen sunshine in like forever. The hubby has been working so much and my house is a wreck.

i think we all need it to be Summer time!! lol
 
((((HUGS))))) I know how you feel. Lately life has been rough for us too. I have two sick kids right now. They have been out of school for the past few days. They keep catching all kinds of crap at school...strep, colds, etc. They just got over strep about a month ago and have it again. UGH! They have been puking, so I'm not sure if they have a flu bug on top of it or if they are puking from the strep or if they are puking from the meds. It drives me nuts not knowing what is really wrong too.

And, ugh, let's not talk about periods. I have posted probably a couple times about my lovely hormone problems and how I supposedly have PCOS. Well, I never get periods. The docs want me on BCPs but I won't go on them cause they make me nuts! So, now they want me taking some kind of progesterone meds. And I was prescribed them a few months ago and here's me...thinking I could hold off on taking them and maybe, just maybe, my period will start on it's on. And guess what. IT DID...only now I'm going on day 30 of it with no signs of it stopping.

I'm having pains here there and everywhere (neck, back, knee, etc.) and I haven't been able to exercise because of it. I'm not sure if I should see a regular doctor or go to a chiropractor.

And on top of all of this we have a lot of stuff going wrong with our house (including a big sink hole that just popped up from all this rain we had) and no $ to fix it cause we are catching up on some major CC debt!

tis a lovely time right now! LOL!

Becky, I'm glad you're having a good day!

Crystal and Megan, not glad you're having bad days too, but it just feels better to go through it with someone else, ya know.

((hugs))
 
We have days like that all the time... I'm dreading the day I finally go through her "stuff" to donate or toss. I think I need a day where she's away at a friends house and I can do it w/o her noticing.

(((HUGS))) hope your day gets better
 
Hugs girl,that's a crappy way to start the day. Take a deep breathe, think about dinner ;) It'll get better!!
 
hmmm me thinks the girl needs a second set of shoes! Good news on dinner though!

I need to spend the rest of the day going through stuff too ... the Blind are coming Friday and it's my chance to get rid of a lot of stuff taking up space!
 
Ugh, I feel ya! I just spent the morning going through my girls' room. Got it organized, and a whole bunch thrown out and put aside to donate. I only decided to do this since they woke up early and I didn't want them to wake dh, so I kept them busy helping me.

I hope you find that shoe and your day gets better!!!!!
 
I hope your day gets better ((hugs))

My 2 boys are ALWAYS losing shoes & socks, and it's normally at 8am when we need to get ready for school!!!

I also feel your pain about the crap, too. I did the boys room on Monday AND Tuesday and got 3 big bags of broken or unused toys and other crap. Now it actually looks sort of like a bedroom, lol.
 
hmmm me thinks the girl needs a second set of shoes!

Well, luckily she had another set of shoes, that (also luckily) still fit her. Otherwise she would not have been able to go to school.

I just spent a very long morning in her room and guess what.......no shoe. I'm about to go through her brother's room and clear his out as well. From Claire's room, I ended up with a huge donate bag, a huge garbage bag, and a huge 'save for Sadie' bag. I've barely started in Wes' and already have a huge garbage bag.

I think I need to nominate my children for that Hoarders show. O.M.G. -- it's really that bad!


*eta: She really has a few other pairs of shoes, but these were her tennis shoes. Luckily, she had an extra pair of tennis shoes. Dress shoes just don't work w/ sweats, and it's too cold today for crocs. :)

Crystal Im ok with it not being summer. We have like 9 months of summer. Winter is the only time it cools off here LOL

Hope everyones day gets better though!!
 
I hate those kind of days!

My day isn't going that bad, although I've got a backache and that same visitor that you have. LOL.

Got to take a fun trip to Walmart (note the sarcasm) to get a few foodstuffs to get us through the next few days...we're expecting 1/4-1/2" ice and 4-8" of snow tomorrow....so we'll probably be stuck inside for awhile. Just praying we keep our power or it will be COOOOOOLD in this house.
 
Sorry you're having a yucky day Kresta! I can definitely relate. We have been scouring the house looking for our Woody cowboy doll for two days now. For the life of me, I can't figure out where he went.

And, yesterday, I spent a good deal of time searching for my coat and DS's comforter. I mean, how do those things just disappear? And, i couldn't find them anywhere! Come to find out, DH had taken them both to the cleaners on his way to work and didn't bother to tell me. It's nice of him to take them, but it would have been even nicer if he would have told me. Sheesh!

Monday this week was pretty crappy for me, but the girls here lifted my spirits so much! Hope things will look up soon for everyone who's struggling today. ((HUGS)) to everyone!
 
Hope you're day got better.

My morning had it's own challenges. Including a broken glass in a sink full of dishes and a silence that seemed pretty much like an "I told you so" -- which I didn't need. Add on changes to my schedule that were not under my control. At least by late afternoon things were mellowing out.
 
I am totally having those period blahs today, too. Plus it was day number 9 in a row of working, though I do have tomorrow off finally. Now my 3 year old is currently yelling from bed that he needs more chips! Ugh.
 
I feel ya! I've had a head cold off and on. Feeling worse today! MY daughter just got new supplies for her pencil box and somehow over the weekend, pencil box and all have disappeared! It's lost somewhere in the house. We've all been looking for it for 3 days! We always have issues with shoes because they never put them where they go. She came home from school yesterday and half her bangs were cut off! I need to go in her room and clean it but I have no energy. She is a pack rat and keeps everything!
