Ever had one of those days where you REALLY should have stayed in bed?
Today was one of those.
It started off pretty harmless. I woke up after not hearing my alarm.
Luckily it wasn’t that late, but still. I should have suspected it was going to go downhill from there.
I didn’t get to finish my coffee.
The bread I use to make sandwiches with… had green spots.
Fine, I use the other loaf. No biggie.
I then get into the carpark - I actually got the car today, usually I walk to work - get in the car and reverse out of the parking space.
My neighbor comes up and knocks on my window. I thought “Damn you, I’m late!” but alas, I wound down the window.
“Unless your car can fly… you won’t be going anywhere.” she says. “There’s a tree blocking the drive.”
“Ah. Ok I guess I walk.” I say.
She laughs.
Guess what. She was right. There was a big tree down across the drive and you couldn’t even climb over it. Phone call to the boss. “Uh…”

The crappy picture I took with the mobile. At this point most of the tree was already chopped.
Okay. So we tried to get a chainsaw to the tree. No dice. Its an electric chainsaw and the multitude of extension cables was simply too much. I run and get another cable…. and manage to lock myself out of the house.

So I call my better half and tell him I’ve locked myself out.
He says he should be home around the same time I am.
Cool beans.
At 11am I finally managed to get to work - minus the car.
Which was unlocked, and in the carpark, all day.
At 3:30pm my butt starts to vibrate. (My phone is on vibrate and in my back pocket - don’t get too excited!)
I answer the phone. It’s the better half.
“Bad news,” he says. “I won’t be home before 7pm.”
It’s not my bloody day, is it?
Hopefully your day went better than mine, but I should clearly never have gotten up, much less left the house today!
