Dear Yesterday,
Apparently YOU woke up in a joking mood.
At 6am my alarm went off to go on my bike ride. I begrudgingly got out of bed, got dressed and trudged downstairs in my workout clothes and socks
At 6:10 am I stepped in dog poop on the wood floor – I then spent a few minutes cleaning it up.
At 6:20 am I nearly stepped in dog pee, which was so conveniently placed right under the baby fence, so I had to keep moving it back and forth to get all of the wet spots cleaned up.
At 6:25 I finally made it outside to put air in my tires.
I rode incident free (thankfully).
I got home, got the twins up and fed them breakfast. Bryan came downstairs and I was stretching. He was taking a video.
At around 9am Miles knocked over Bryans coffee cup (which was lukewarm, luckily), spilling it all over my Macbook Air.
At 9:10 it stopped working.
At 9:15 I took a very frustrated shower and tried to figure out how many pictures I’d be able to recover from my blog and family should it decide to die.
At 9:40 I took the twins out to play on the water table and started sneezing. I proceeded to sneeze ALL DAY despite my allergy pill and a Benadryl.
At 11:00 I laid down to rest for a bit, and then knocked over half a glass of sweet tea.
At lunchtime neither Bryan nor I could get the warped lid off of the milk container, so he punctured it with a knife, then spilled milk on the floor.
At lunchtime I went to put the rinsed blueberries back in the fridge, but forgot to shake off the excess water, thereby spilling a nice puddle onto the floor on the way to the fridge.
I’m still sneezing.
At 2:00 we take the twins and Quinn (my friends 5 year old we were watching) to the pool, which was luckily also incident free (thank goodness)
At 4:30 Bryan starts the babies dinner and spills more milk on the floor.
I am still sneezing.
At dinnertime the twins throw their milk cups on the floor for the millionth time and….you guessed it, more spilled milk.
At bedtime neither of them want to go to sleep because they are overtired (oops).
At 9pm I decide I’m tired of sneezing and go to bed. I accidentally drop my invisalign into the recycle bin.
I go to bed after 2 more benadryl and toilet paper stuck up my nose.
You suck,
The Powers*

OMG! You needed to stay out of your house all day lol! You poor lady! What the heck was going on?!?
August 17, 2014 at 11:36 am
And I’m proud of you for not crying. I would have! Several times!
August 17, 2014 at 11:36 am
I was too frustrated to cry about the computer. After that it kinda became a joke π¦
August 17, 2014 at 11:36 am
Oops π

What a crazy day! I would’ve gone to bed early and hide my head under the cover….. I am glad the laptop is fine though! Bob spilled water on his laptop and it never recovered…..

We lucked out that it was only the bottom and it was covered with a case so that helped I am sure. Good thing too!!
August 17, 2014 at 1:10 pm
Oh my God, it sounds like the Cosmic Trickster was hanging around you yesterday! Well done for keeping your cool – I’d have lost the plot entirely.
August 17, 2014 at 2:10 pm
I distinctly remember thinking “at least this will make an amusing blog” haha
August 17, 2014 at 1:46 pm
What a day! I’m glad you can laugh about it now. Hope today goes much better!
August 17, 2014 at 2:11 pm

August 17, 2014 at 3:22 pm
Sorry couldnt stop laughing. Must have been horrible having a starring role in it but you made through it. Yay for that.
August 17, 2014 at 5:43 pm
Haha glad it made you laugh!! π
August 17, 2014 at 6:19 pm
Theresa – what a day!! Poor you and your dog-poopy foot! Plus, that is a LOT of spilled milk, girl! Well done for surviving a day without going stark raving mad. (I think my heart skipped a beat over your macbook Air… whew! Close call!) Breathe, my dear. Just breathe…
August 17, 2014 at 6:26 pm
Tell me about it with the milk!!! π
August 17, 2014 at 9:22 pm
Lol. Wow! That was a very messy day. Here’s hoping today is better. π
