Just one of those days...

Today started off just like any other day....get up, take a shower, get dressed, get maggie dressed...

that would be the only thing that went well today. HA. 

It all started when i had a doctor's appointment, and jake was going to watch maggie AND go with me to the dr because i get really anxious about doctor's offices (what if they take out my blood?!!!). The appointment was supposed to be at 10:45. I showed up at 10:52. I was finally called back to be seen at 12:05. yikes. i felt so bad for jake, who had already had to rearrange his schedule once for me to go to the dr, now again because he missed an appointment he had scheduled for 12. 

I finally made it out of the doctor's office at 1:00, thinking the worst of my day was over. boy, was i wrong. Just as mags was getting settled into her nap, it was time for me to go to the dentist. Jake's appointment was an hour after mine started. To make a long story short, i left the house with the car seat in my car. BIG. MISTAKE. right after i finish at the dentist, i pick up my phone and see i have 2 texts from jake. the first one says "you have the car seat." the second one "what should i do?" 

I call jake and find out that he has maggie. in the car. without the car seat. IN THE HIGH CHAIR!!!! i am freaking out, but i calmly reply, "oh, i'm sure shell be fine.."

five minutes later jake calls and says he is on the highway, on the side of the road, out of gas.

i felt so incapable. so weak. so, "why are you doing this God??"

but then it got worse.

as i am on my way to go pick him up and bring him to his appointment, he calls and says he made it to a gas station. meanwhile, I'm 10 minutes past where he is. In a panic, he decides to head on in to his dentist appointment and leave maggie in the car alone. with the windows cracked. in her high chair. 

Luckily, i got there 10 mins later and she was fine, just chillin in her high chair and looking out the window. 

3 diet cokes later and a few advil later...jake and i head to furman to take a walk and a breather. while we're there, i drop my phone in the toilet, and at the same time a trickle of pee runs down my leg because i can't hold it any longer. 

it's moments like this i have to laugh and not take life circumstances so seriously. it reminds me to focus on the eternal and not the temporary. right now, my phone is in rice for the night. here's to hoping it works in the am ;)!
