You know your week is not getting off to a good start when:

- You awake to the booming sound of the trash truck.
- The concrete guys who are scheduled to fix the cracks in the patio arrive a half hour late: right about the time you need to head out the door for the morning school drop-off.
-You finally get everyone loaded in for school and can’t get out of your own driveway because those aforementioned concrete guys blocked your driveway with their big ‘ol truck.
- Your gas meter is on E.
-Your daughter looks at the new purse you bought yesterday and says, “Do you plan on actually using that purse?  What happened to the green one?”
- When you arrive at the school (after having been stuck behind the world’s slowest driver) you discover that your daughter’s lunch is still sitting on the kitchen counter.
-As you drive home you hear a bad groanish crackish noise when you turn the corner in your one-year-old Honda Odyssey.  You recognize the noise as one that you heard from the underside of the car as your husband rounded a corner over the weekend.
-Back at home you see that the concrete guys have already called it quits.  After one hour.
- You discover a voicemail message stating that the concrete guys can’t repair the cracks in the concrete until they investigate the cause of the newly-discovered buckling of said concrete.
-All that happens before 10 A.M.

It’s been one of those days my friends.  Hopefully this isn’t an indicator of the week to come.

Not an indication, we all must have a day or morning like this once in a while to help us to appreciate all the other days, hang in there….

Been there Darcy…hope it gets better. It can’t get much worse, right? :)

I just realized that I spelled your name wrong…Have I been spelling it wrong all along? I’m usually so so good at those details…I’ll just say that last week was rough and maybe I cried out too many brain cells or something. Forgive me?!

I’ve had a bit of a rough start this week, too! Trying to get back on track after the weekend and taking yesterday “off,” so to speak! Hope your day improves! :)

Hang in there, I feel your pain!

Today was awful here too…the garbage trucks woke me up at 5:50 AM! And the day got worse from there. I am in bed already because I just need the day to end and start fresh again tomorrow!

Here’s to a better Tuesday for both of us!

Yikes! I just hope that the rest of your week is better than today was!
