Well okay. it is more like bad week. It started on weds. We all got ready to go to CJ's first Kindergarten concert. CJ was so excited. We get to the school to find it very dark. The room where the concert was to be held was not even set up for a concert and there were no other people on the school. The gates were down to get into CJ's class, but the other K class was open. so I went snooping for the little green reminder slip and found one. CJ's concert was on the 12th!
How did I miss that? I had everything written on the calendar for what was going on this week. apparently the newsletter that came out before Thanksgiving had the wrong date on it and I wrote that down, but then they corrected it when they came back, but for some reason I just threw it aside and figured I had that all taken care off. I was crushed not to be able to hear him sing. The next morning while getting ready for school, CJ says to me " Mommy. I hate you!" I asked him why, b/c sometimes he says this over petty things and I just let it go, but this time he answered " because I wanted to sing at my concert." I responded " Well....." and had no explanation, but went into my room and quietly sobbed. How could I have messed up? I crushed his little heart. Then later Thursday morning, after the kids were off to school, our dog, Chewy started vomiting everywhere. So I spent the whole day cleaning dog vomit and making sure he keeps hydrated. Now we go to my worst day....
Called the bank this morning and found out that my direct deposit still has not been process. What are they taking an early vacation and not going to process it til after the Holidays? I need that money for Christmas shopping, C'mon people!! Then I got the kids off to school and I thought since the dog did not vomit all night that he was over whatever bug he had caught, but No! He vomited once again on my sons blanket and it smell so bad that while trying to get it in the wash, I vomited as well. Yum! What a way to start of the day. Then wind it horrible here and freaking out the little dog, Vader. But at least it is not as back as my sister in Seattle, she has no power and does not know when it will be back on. So then not being able to e-mail my sister back forth i decided to take a break from the computer this morning and watched Ellen. She is so funny. I would love to have been in her audience today. she gave away a trip to Cancun, Mexico! So anyway, after going and getting CJ in the freezing, harsh winds, ( and the bus was late) we came home and ate some lunch and had some hot cocoa. Got bored with the TV , so I started knitting a winter hat. My hand started cramping up so then I came and played some games on the computer. CJ came in and helped. Then he jumps up and goes to the restroom and then moments later i heard what sounded like rain in the basement and found that the toilet was overflowing so bad that it was leaking in the basement. AHHHHH! CJ failed to come and tell me that they toilet was over flowing . I quickly got out my Floormate and sucked up as much water as I could and then towel dried the rest. Then I went down into the basement and called my husband and told him what was going on. After a few instructions of what to do next I got off the phone with him and then at the most inopportune time, my mom calls asking if I had the car and if I could go and get my dad at a Doc.'s appt. I didn't have the car today, but even if I did I would not of been able to leave at that point in time. My oldest kids were on their way home and I had a huge mess in the basement. So my mom hangs up on me after saying that she would just re-schedule her appt. I tried calling her back, but she would not answer. WTH! So now I feel like crap. More crappy than I felt before. I ruined CJ'c concert, I have no money to buy gifts, I can't go over to my sister's for x-mas( like she wanted), and now, out of all the times my parents have helped me out, i was unable to return the favor when they really needed it. AHHHHHHHH!
Can I go climb in a hole now! I hope this next week, while the kids are home, will be better than this week. B/c this week just sucked so bad.

Look at it this way...it can't get much worse!:) I bet the thing that bothers you the most is the concert. I have done that (with an art fair) and it is a horrible feeling and I felt like the worst mom on the planet. I promise he is over it by now but you will remember it at his high school graduation...gotta love that Mom guilt! I hope next week sails by like a breeze :)
