Do you ever have a day you would just wish you could forget? Did you ever have a day that you hope you never have again? Did you ever have a day that put you so down in the dumps that you hope the next day you will be in a better mood? Well, that was today for me. All of the above and more.

Work sucked. Home sucked.

When I went to get Piper they were outside playing. That is always bad news for me. She doesn't like to leave when she is outside playing. She generally throws a nice fit when it's time to leave and that just started off my night. When I got her home - she was drenched and screaming. Steve tried to get her out of the truck and she just cried her head off. I have NO IDEA what the hell her problem was. I got her in the house and got her chilled out and finally she let me fix supper. I really wanted to make a meatloaf but all the hamburger wasn't thawed out. So, tacos was the next thing I was hungry for and that was what we had.

While I was cooking, Piper sneaked upstairs looking for her pacifier. I tell you what. We about had her broke of the paci. It was just a bedtime thing. But lately - she is really addicted to it. It's time to start taking her off it again. Steve caught her upstairs looking frantically for this paci. When he brought her downstairs it was ON! She was a crying brat from that point on. She wouldn't eat her supper and just cried. Steve and I both were about at the end of our ropes. After both of us not having a great day at work, not feeling good and the big kids, well let's just say it's for sure time for them to go back to work and then a screaming 2 year old. I was worried because I thought maybe she really didn't feel well. BUT I am convinced she was just throwing a fit for the paci.

After cleaning up after supper I had a few errands to run. I needed to go get my library book, make a deposit with a check I have had for 3 weeks, return a movie and pick up some milk. I know I have said how much I hate errands in the evenings. But there was no getting around it. We were all going to go and then I told Steve if it was ok - I would just run and get it done. So off I went. I was moving along pretty good until I went to leave the grocery store. I saw a friend of mine from high school. I haven't seen her in forever. It was nice to see her. I gave her my phone number and hopefully we can hook up for lunch someday. She has a 4 yr. old daughter too. I was way past my stay away from home time so I headed back home.

Piper came outside to help me water the flowers. We got that chore done and off upstairs to give the dirty brat a bath! She was in alittle bit better spirits. After bath she went to bed with NO PROBLEM! I could not believe it. I was able to get a bunch more chores done and even sit and blog about my shitty day!!!
