Madness of Monday

whining and complaining about my day... no one else to talk to... excuse me for a sec.....

Something about every moment of this day has sucked. Even the part when I was sleeping before I woke up. My back and shoulder were hurting. Man, I really need a new mattress. I went to bed early last night, and woke up this morning feeling like I hadnt even slept. Urgh! I was in fact on time to Alyssa's bus stop this morning, even though I am usually worried about missing it. But the bus was late. I didn't really get to say goodbye to Jonah. I wish I couldve hugged him, but I wouldve been to work later. I got to work 5 minutes late anyways. Shoot, I shouldve just spent a few minutes and hugged him and loved him like I wanted to, because now if youre five minutes late to work you loose FIFTEEN minutes of PTO time, and yeah, we are NOT allowed to make up time. Work didn't seem like it was going to be too bad of a day, and aside from trying to keep my eyes open, it seemed like it would be a mild monday. That was, of course, before half of the claims I was billing rejected. And the people that do the authorizations were gone. So I had to wait. Well thats okay, because other problems rose up in the other states that I work in, and I had to request a whole lot more authorizations. Probably 1/3 of my work didnt get billed or shipped today, and that makes my eyes burn - literally, they are stinging. When it was time to leave I got into my car to discover my seats had puddles in them. I had only left my windows cracked about a half inch, but the rain poured in anyways. Then I got home, and I was finally looking forward to getting home, so I can love on my little ones and cook, clean, do laundry, bathe kids, and put them bed so that I can do more cleaning - maybe a little reading if I'm lucky.... but when I got home my mom informed me that Alyssa was sick! She has a terrible tummy, wont eat, and is running a mild fever. I feel terrible for her.... but her timing is terrible! I wanted well kids so I don't have to miss work! The company I work for took 5 days off of everyone's PTO time, which is fantastic, since I needed every one of those days. Then, just as I get her settled on the couch, which I covered in towels and a throw up bucket next to her, and put in a movie - the power went out. And then it came back. And then it went out again for TWO hours. The power came on a bit ago, and since I'm going to be missing work tomorrow because she is sick I am saving all of my cleaning till then. But today just sucked. So between work that went all wrong, being completely broke, a sick child, and needless rantings and comments of acquaintances/friends that don't know what they are saying - I'm spent. Also, my good friend has been in labor ALL day and I'm anxiously awaiting to hear of the arrival and the gender of her child. In fact, hearing that her baby is safely delivered and in the arms of his/her parents will be the happiest moment of my day! So Good luck Jenny!!!!
