Can't Win

Today is one of those days where you just can't win.

Reason #1. We bought a sidetable today. When we got home, we realized that Pier 1 had given us the smaller table when we had asked for the bigger table. We put it together still and decided we like the smaller table after all. One problem still...they charged us for the bigger table. So now we have to go back and get the charge corrected.

Reason #2. Anna is back at the pediatrician AGAIN. Josh took her to the after hours appt. When he gets there, gets signed it, and settled, they come over the intercom and say the dr. had an emergency and will not get back to the appts. for another 45 minutes. Good grief. Does he stay and wait and hope for the best, does he head home and try again tomorrow? We opted for the stay and wait.

Reason #3. I head out to get dinner to take to Josh while he is in the waiting room. I order my chik-fil-a sandwich plain with cheese. That means NO PICKLE. You know as well as I do that that means that sandwich was piled high with more pickles than they even put on the regularly ordered sandwiches. Gross.

Reason #4. Noah is not sick with the cold he has so kindly passed on to Anna, but he is whinier now than he was then. And I am home alone with the whiny king who will not eat his dinner and who cries at the drop of a hat. He is in time out right now (again) taking big dramatic breaths to let me know he is done crying and ready to get up. Guess I'll go and see if he is ready to eat yet. A boy cannot live on cookies and orange juice alone...and yet that is all Noah seems to have eaten all day.

Update. Reason #5. Noah put too much chicken nugget in his mouth and had to spit half of it out already chewed. Then he put the half chewed meat back in his mouth to finish the job. Eeew. Eeew. Eeew.

Update. Reason #6. Turns out Anna has yet another ear infection. Great.
