It was another crazy morning in our house today,which,well,I guess, chaos is really our norm anyway.
First of all,none of my kids wanted to get up,what’s new. Then there was the fight over the showers and who was going to get the hot water. The battle over the last two slices of cinnamon bread got ugly and the lack of clean underwear was,once again,all mom’s fault. The fact that the clean underwear pile was still sitting in the laundry room and not put away in the drawer totally got me off the hook.
Needless to say,we were all running late. I hadn’t showered and needed to be at a Mastermind meeting in less than an hour.
Eventually,everyone got to school on time,I took a quick 2 minute COLD shower and threw on some clothes on to walk the dogs. I had made up some time and was enjoying a few minutes outside when what had turned into a nice morning turned ugly.
I’m the good neighbor that picks up after her dogs,as opposed to the others that leave piles of poop on my front lawn. In sticking with the fact that I was back on track in regards to time,both dogs pooped at the same time,yeah. Simple,pick it up,run back home and get to my meeting.
Yeah,not so great. I quickly stuck my hand into the inside out bag to grab the two poops. It wasn’t until I had my hand on the second pile that I realized the bottom of the bag was not sealed. Great,you can all imagine the visual on this one where I am sitting with my palm up holding you know what.
Oh,how I cursed my kids that this walking the dogs is supposed to be their job and not mine (sounds familiar,huh?). I had to walk a bit to find a garbage can and then figure out how to clean my hand. There were no sprinklers on but there was a fountain in front of one of the houses nearby. Knowing the person I am,what do you think I did?
