Just one of those days!

When everything just stinks! 
 
I hate it when the best laid plans are just foiled by no means of your own.  Today is just one of those days more so than any I have had in quite a while.  Wake up on time, get in the shower all seems well.  Get out of the shower and start getting ready to face the day and see a massive pile of dog poop in Noah's room.  Clean that up, find where we forgot to put down a pad for the cat who has randomly decided that once a day she likes the laundry room floor better than the litter box.  So of course then get to clean up cat pee.  Go back to continue on with our normal plans and where the dog didn't finish pooping in Noah's room is at the tile entry way.  Clean that up and it floods the toilet.  Ohhhh the joys, it has to get better from here right?  Oh who I am I to think that I can manage to get my day back on track and still be on time for work. 
 
Drop Noah off at school and barely avoid his whole class hearing him telling me quite loudly that the combined daycare teacher before his teacher gets there is really pretty mean and he doesn't like her.  Thank God he started the sentence with "mommy, I need to tell you something" so I hadn't turned the door knob yet for the teacher to hear him announce this to the world. 
 
Leave daycare headed to work and still somehow scheduled for an on time arrival and there is obviously a monster of a wreck on Riverwatch because traffic is backed up and totally not moving.  Finally get turned around in that mess and am a good 25 minutes late for work the one day I was actually going to make it here on time.
 
Still not having gone back home to crawl under a rock and thinking it can't get much worse yet more unpleasantries greet me.  A friend whose husband works 8 hours from home has found out that her 35 year old husband has had a heart attack.  So he's having an angioplasty at 9:30 this morning and she won't be able to make it there before his procedure.  Makes my crappy morning so totally irrelevant.  So then I get to cry at my desk for being so consumed in my crappy morning when someone else has it so much worse.  So if you're reading this please pray for my friend and her safe travels this morning and for the doctors who will be performing the procedure on him today.  I cannot imagine the agony she has to be going through trying to make it there for her husband as he goes through such a traumatic thing alone at such a young age. 
 
I would say this day has got to get better but I dare not curse it, so here's to tomorrow!
