Sigh....

I had a pretty good morning, okay I am lying it wasn't that good. I went to the commissary before naptime, I had to because Kale was calling me at noon and I needed food for lunch. If I waited until after naptime then I wouldn't have enough time before he called to get there and back. If I waited until after he called I would be too hungry.

The point is I had to go during the time Delilah normally naps, thus pushing her nap back an hour. Fun. She was grumpy and Sophia was being three. Smothering Delilah, getting in Delilah's face, and grumping when I scolded her or asked her to stop. By the time we checked out I was done. Alas, that was not the end of my fun filled day.

I had a good few hours while the girls napped, first Delilah then Sophia. Kale called we talked for awhile and soon after that he got online and we talked there too. In between talking to him I cleaned up the downstairs. Lilly's friend V was coming home with us before Girl Scouts and I am not one to leave my house untidy while there are visitors even if they are 9yr old girls.

Just before we were leaving for school my mom's ex-secretary called. Her daughter J goes to the same school as the girls and she was running behind, asked if I could pick her up and take her home with me. Fine, not a big deal as long as she was picked up before Girl Scouts. Normally it wouldn't be an issue on Girl Scout night but tonight was Aidan's investiture ceremony. Well, as you can guess by how rotten my day has gotten been so far, that she wasn't there to pick her up before the meeting. I waited even longer than I normally would wait to leave. That caused me to be late, which as I have said before, makes me panic. During the ceremony J was fine, Sophia and Delilah wouldn't sit still but were quiet. We left as soon as the ceremony was over and they grabbed a quick snack. At this point I realized I left my phone in the car and J's mom had been calling and calling, she was lost. I told her just to meet me at my house. J went home and we left to go to BK.

After all of that I didn't want the hassle of cooking. I order our food, pay, and leave. Get to Lilly's Girl Scout house and realize they only gave me half of my dinner. Great, just great. Delilah was crying at this point and Sophia is three and has no VOLUME CONTROL anymore. Everything she says is said in a very LOUD annoying WHINE. I run in and grab Lilly even though I am 15mins early. We go back to BK, as we pull in Lilly is insistent she has to pee right that second, I let her out to go in to pee. After that I go back through the drive thru to get my food, the guy insisted he tried to run out to give it to me, whatever. Then I go fill up the van since gas is probably go up before the weekend and then we head home.

I pull in and as we get out our very lovely pitbull loving neighbors are getting ready to walk their now ear cropped pitbull puppy. As Lilly and Sophia walk past him he goes to the end of his leash growling and gnashing his teeth. And she said he's "a good dog". Trash, that's all they are is trash. (Don't read into it as all pitbull owners are trash, these people however are trash).

And now I am dealing with the loud, whiny, screech of a certain three year old that is going to bed at 6pm tonight.

Hope your day was better.

Clipping the ears says it all. Gabe wouldn't even do that, and I'm sure you've heard enough about Gabe.
