Today I...

1) woke up late
2) forgot to leave my mom Kaeden's car seat
3) waited in line for 20 minutes for a Starbucks that I really needed
4) went into work for a meeting that was confusing and frustrating to me
5) was in an elevator with a friend/co-worker going from ground to 8th floor and somewhere in there she discovered a bee/wasp flying around...that went into my hair...I don't think I have to explain how it went from there, needless to say it involved me going into a complete state of panic and hitting every button possible to make the doors open and then falling out onto gosh knows what floor - spilling my Tim's tea, dropping my soup and really just looking like a total idiot - my co-worker actually wasn't doing much better than me and afterwards I found out she had no idea the sort of fear(aka full out panic) I have about bees/wasps etc... - it took us a few minutes to get back on the elevator to go up as 1) I kept hitting the down button and 2)my legs were shaking so bad I couldn't move and 3) there was no way in heck we were going into the same elevator so had to wait until a different one came

ok, at this point I think we can agree not a great day, the bee thing was really the end of it for me (I really do hate how panicked I get) until ...

I was running out late to pick up Kaeden from my mom's who I am very thankful for as she bought Kaeden a new car seat so they could do their running around, treat him to the arcade and take Shelby for her test at 1pm and then kept him longer than I thought (on her day off as I usually stay at home with him on Mondays) as I got caught up at work and then...

6) I receive a panic call from Shelby who mixed up her exam time and instead of 1pm like she thought, her test was at 10am...totally missed her last test of the year. she did a great job doing damage control and ended up writing the test and an apology letter to the teacher - we don't know at this point if her social teacher will accept it (as they couldn't find her this afternoon) but regardless I am proud of how she handled it.

7) lost my parking pass...seriously frustrating for a couple of reasons. The biggest being that I HAD IT IN MY HANDS as I was leaving. I just can't figure out where it could be... looked for over an hour and finally ended up having to deal with the parking people (which has Advil written all over it) now he must have known that there was a chance I was going to go postal because on a scale of 1-10 in frustration he was a solid 6 (usually they are about an 11) - so $50 later I was on my way

8)smack dab into the middle of rush hour

a ride home with the sunroof open, music blasting, a visit with my parents and a Mocha Mint Frappuchino Light (with whip...re-read 1-8 to justify this) and a husband who started dinner ...the night luckily went better.

and now I am heading to bed as I think this day and I have had just about enough of each other.
