Today was another one of those days that goes on forever, yet I seem to get very little accomplished. And accomplishment is a big thing with me. What I did do was this: swept piles of poo out of the garage and swished disinfectant around. Our new puppy, Shadow is restricted to the garage at night and when we are away. Yes, we are cruel, but obviously the mutt is NOT housetrained, so what do I do?
What else? I dropped a big, hot bowl of stuffing on my mother-in-law's floor, and broke the bowl into three parts. She wasn't pleased, as this happened just after she had drop the bowl, and I had then scooped most of the stuffing off the floor and said it would be fine. Being a lover of stuffing, I still ate it and so did my devoted (to stuffing) husband and daughter, but the m.i.l. was sure she would choke, so went without.
Finally I held my crying, teething daughter from 7pm until just after 1:30am-- and now my back and arms are killing! I better hit the sack, as I have to get up earlier than usual tomorrow and be told that my car is not roadworthy at the NCT (National Car Testing) centre. Then I will have 30 days to fit in an expensive trip to the mechanic and pray for luck.
For additional joy, I was told that I will now have to work 5 days a week instead of 4, but will be given no additional hours. So the one day that I had a bit of freedom to bathe, clean, run errands, attempt art... now belongs to Lanesboro Community College. (which is a highschool in Ireland)
Great.
