I Need a Do-Over!

At 10 am this morning I realized that I needed to go back to bed and start all over.

The  (bad) dog (which doesn't belong to me, but to a certain person who is taking an all expense paid extreme vacation) peed on the carpet right in front of me. 

When I got the Little Green Machine to clean it up, I dropped the dirty water ALL OVER THE FLOOR, which ran right to the baseboards I had been painting five minutes before the dog peed.

As I cleaned up the entire mess, I brushed up against the door frame I had painted and got Behr Snowfall Semi-Gloss all over my hair and back.

Then the evil blond child spilled my coffee on one of my books.

My stomach hurts.  I'm a little nauseous, too.  And I'm sicksicksick of grading papers already. 

I so totally understand Alexander, who had that terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day.  I think I might have a sign made so people know when not to knock on my door.

WARNING!  AIRFORCEWIFE IS HAVING A TERRIBLE, HORRIBLE, NO GOOD, VERY BAD, DAY!  PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK!  AND BRINGING CHOCOLATE MIGHT HELP!

So.  I think I might head back up to bed and put my current DVD'd season of choice on tv and pretend today hasn't really happened yet.

I hear you! I think there is something in the universe that is causing havoc today. I also have a spouse who is on an extended all expenses paid adventure. I woke up at 5am thinking someone was breaking into my house. Thankfully it was just a very vivid dream. Intended to get up and go to work early, but fell asleep...and woke up again at 8am (8 is the time i have to be out of the house). It was raining, so i had to take the dogs to daycare which delayed me even more. Plus i forgot that my windshield wipers are not working currently so it was hard to get a clear view of the road. I get to work and discover that I FORGOT MY LAPTOP. So i have to drive all the way home and get it.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaa

Ohhh that is a crappy day. Good lord. It's one of those that makes you just want to scream.

Last Thursday was my no good day.

Monday I had to work...go figure..and GI Joe is gone, so I wasn't in the greatest of moods. And it was one of those days where none of my clients would listen, and then on my way home I had car issues, and was hoping for a call from GI Joe that didn't happen, and then I was cooking dinner for a couple of friends (and I LOVE to cook it generally relaxes me) and the burner caught fire! Dealt with that before any damage happened...still don't know the cause...and as if that wasn't enough... we have a platform bed that I LOVE and I showered and then was sitting on the edge of the bed to brush my hair while I watched an episode of NCIS (on dvd) and I heard a "pop" and I sank to the ground. Somewhere my 125 lbs broke the dang bed! The wooden dowels attaching the side to the footboard broke and when it collapsed the metal screws broke and after a few hours of playing I found that it was beyond repair! BAH HUMBUG!

Finally talked to GI Joe on Thurs. and he had the gall to LAUGH...which after a few minutes I saw the humor in it all...but still... I needed one of those No GOOD, VERY BAD Day signs!

At least the dog went on the floor and only coffee was on your book. My husband offered to dogsit a German Shepard and he jumped in my lap while I was reading a book. Since the dog's owners have him spoiled rotten he got mad when I told him to get off and he peed on my book and my lap. Of course my husband laughed which was the wrong thing to do. My husband won't be offering to watch anyone's dog ever again.

I'm leaving sippy cups and fruit bars wherever I think the kids will find them and I'm leaving...they won't find me..no one can find me MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA.

I wish.

Hate those types of days..with a passion.

Since my DF is gone, every day can be a struggle to hold it all together. Some ladies might be happy to not have to see their DH for awhile, but as this is my first deployment, I am struggling. Some days are ok (no day is ever the best) but other days are just crappy and fully of frustration.

I am trying to remain strong, but I find that it's challenging to cope when I need to hear his voice but instead I get an IM via Skype...or I wish I could see him on Skype, but all I get is an IM...I'm blessed to have all those things, but I'm human and I am finding it harder than I could have ever expected.

The first week was the most difficult, but I thought after I got through those 7 days, life would be easier (or so it felt). But it's actually getting worse...when will I see the light at the end of the tunnel! Someone who's been through this, please reach out. I need all the support I can get right now.

Thanks!
