What a morning!

How irritated would you be if you were running a tad late in the morning and.............

1) It's 27 degrees outside and
2) You don't have a clean travel coffee mug to fill and
3) You actually manage to get both girls in the car (after emergency diaper changes for both as you're walking out the door) and
4) Then you finally arrive at preschool (9 minutes late) AND get both girls out of the car (in the 27 degree weather) and
5) Then almost pull your arm out of the socket as you attempt to pull open a LOCKED DOOR!?

School was canceled! There was a only THREAT of snow! A meager THREAT!

Guess what? We didn't get any snow today. The sun shone bright all day and it even got up to 38 degrees, but I digress.

I raced home to get Sophia's portable DVD player so she could accompany me to a doctor's appointment where she ended up spilling her goldfish all over the carpeted floor in the doctor's personal office. Then as we were picking them up she stepped on quite a few and ground them into the carpet.

Then I had to take her with me to BJ's Wholesale Club where she ended up leaving Dash, her new meowing & walking cat, in the plastic race car attached to the front end of the shopping cart. I had returned the cart into the large corral area in the parking lot and, can you believe, that by the time I got into the car and Sophia asked me where Dash was, the cart had actually been taken back to the store entrance by the little gnome that constantly monitors the parking lot.

Oh well. We finally arrived home and the afternoon returned to normal. Sophia cracked me up when I opened her bedroom door after her "quiet" time to find her only sporting her diaper. She had taken off all of her clothes and tried to put them on Baby Bop. She was so proud.
