This is an off-topic vent.......... I don't care if anyone reads it or not! I just have to get this off my chest. Today was the day everything just didn't go right. I clean our church offices on the weekends and enter data into the computer, right?! I am also doing a surprise "While You Were Out" sort of thing in DH's office while he's away at Mardi Gras on a missions trip.
NE-way! I drive to the church only to realize I FORGOT THE OFFICE KEYS! It is slick and snowy, so I drive back home, grab the keys, and rush back to the church because I had a LOT to do! When I pull up, my father-in-law (the senior pastor) had gotten there! If I had waited a few minutes, I wouldn't have had to drive home for my keys!!! Well, anyway, he and my bro-in-law left to run errands so I was alone...
So I get working mudding holes in the walls, prepping for the painting we'll be doing next week and I drop the spackling thingy behind the credenza (a HUGE piece a furniture that you cannot budge on your own). So I try to reach behind the credenza to get it and my arm gets stuck. I looked like a cartoon character. I could NOT get my arm unstuck and I actually thought to myself, "The headlines are going to read, 'Woman gets arm stuck between window and credenza... police sawed her out!".
Anyway, I decided to just rip my arm out and now it's all bruised and hurts. On my way out, after working, I spilt pop all over my husband's desk... when I get home, my toddler goes poop IN FRONT OF her little potty and my baby starts playing with it and eating it...
We ordered pizza because I was just sick of it and they over-charged us. When I called I told them I was never eating Pizza Hut again because the delivery guy was a JERK and was ticked with the tip I gave him, when you don't even HAVE to give them a tip they just kept saying, "I apologize, maam." Then, clearing away the dishes, my dog trips me and I break THREE of my BRAND NEW dishes that my MIL gave me for Christmas.
Oh, and one of the plates knicks my ankle. My toddler gets taken up to bed and as I'm dressing her, I notice one of her toes looks weird. It was a toe she had stubbed REALLY hard a couple days ago and the nail is COMING OFF and leaking fluid (I hadn't noticed all day because she was wearing socks). So I flip out thinking she had gangrene and she was going to lose a toe! DH starts yelling at me, telling me it's my fault and to just "leave things along" (we were rearranging furniture when she stubbed her toe).
And the cream on the crop is this... just the other day, MIL and I had gone shopping for the new furniture and decor for my husband's office. We bought him a glass and chrome desk at Big Lots and I told my MIL "I looked for a coupon so we could get a better deal, but Big Lots rarely puts out coupons." I JUST NOW GOT AN EMAIL FOR 20% off! That may not seem like a huge deal, but we're a small inner city church and we all take pay cuts so the church can function and any deal helps.
I'm just annoyed and PMS-y. I don't mean to be a complainer. Please oh please pray for me all you Christian women! I'm about to lose my patience!!!
