The first chance I had to talk with J. yesterday happened over IM at nearly 6pm. It went a little something like this…
J: There? How was your day?
C: Mother of God, please tell me you are miraculously IMing and driving home at the same time and are only 5 minutes away.
J: Um…no. Sorry. Bad day?
C: Well, A. has not stopped screaming since she woke up from her alleged “nap,” one hour ago.
J: Yipes!
C: We are in a five-minute quiet interval currently because I threw together some scrambled eggs and toast, and they are both filling their heads right now. She took off her diaper during her “nap” and awoke amidst a puddle of pee.
J: Yuck.
C: I’m sure it wasn’t pleasant, but it has all been cleaned up (as has she) and she still insists on screaming. I don’t know what the problem is. But, how was your day?
J: Slightly less pee…
Aw, I’m sorry you guys had such a bad day.
( But if it’s any comfort, that sounds almost *exactly* like our Tuesday!
The funny thing is the rest of the day was actually not too bad, it was just the hours of screaming between nap and bedtime that was maddening!
“C: Mother of God, please tell me you are miraculously IMing and driving home at the same time and are only 5 minutes away.”
That’s exactly how I feel when the phone rings at 6:00 or so and caller id shows Nick’s work. He’s suppose to be home!!! Not calling to tell me he’s just leaving!!!!
I’m with Colleen on that one – when the phone rings around the time hubby is due home, I always cringe a little as I check caller id.
“A little less pee…..” that made me giggle.
