Today isn't rolling up to be a very great day.
Woke up at 3 a.m. WIDE AWAKE, couldn't go back to sleep. Normally wake up at 5:30 and when I finally got sleepy at 5:15, I figured it was too late to go back to sleep.
We needed to go in to the office a bit late today, so I let DH sleep in and I took DD to school. Window person at Dunkin tried handing me my coffee holding it by the lid (seriously?), it dropped and splattered all over the outside and some on the interior of the RENTED vehicle I have. Luckily, it didn't get on me.
The reason for going in late today AND for the rented car, is because we sold our vehicle (gas guzzler) yesterday (guy offered exactly what we were asking), intended on renting the car for one day, when DH found JUST the vehicle we wanted from an individual for a GREAT price. DH called the guy yesterday afternoon and asked if we could come meet him right then, or later in the evening and he said he wouldn't be home until 10 p.m. or later, but, that since he just listed it, he would DEFINATELY let us be the first to look DH said can we meet at 8, guys says no, earliest is 10. So we are 3/4 of the way through the ONE HOUR drive to meet the guy and we were going to be a little early, so DH calls the guy to tell him. The guy says, "Oh, I am sorry, I have a guy at my house right now buying it". AAARRRRRGGGGHHHH. What a heel. Bothers my DH most because he is such a man of his word and this really TICKED him off!
So, now, DH is furiously searching for another vehicle so we don't have to rent a vehicle for another day.
DD calls when I just walked in the office to tell me that FIVE field trip forms are due today and one of them has a medical release form that needs to be notarized. I asked her why she hadn't given them to me sooner (she is normally TOO on the ball about these things), she says, I put them in your inbox at the office. I frantically searched through both my in and out boxes and found nothing. I looked in a box I have labeled for very "back burner" stuff and sure enough, there they are! Luckily the office next door has a notary, so thats one less thing to worry about!
Luckily, I plopped a roast and potatoes and carrots in the crock pot this morning, so when I get home, DD and DH can have at it and I am going to BED!!!
I am completely worthless at the office today, thank goodness its my own business! This was a great thread to read and respond to! THANKS!
