One of those days

Everybody has "one of those days" every now and then......
Yeah, you know the kind I'm talking about! 

I think I jinxed my day by pushing the snooze button, something I rarely do.  But this morning I was extra tired.  Sadie had a 'honking' session last night.  Pugs with their pushed up noses don't have a long enough snout and sometimes something gets in there wrong.... sort of like when we swallow wrong and a little of our drink goes down the esophagus --- when she drools a lot in her sleep, if she doesn't swallow, it pools up in her throat, and then she has to hack it up -- I call it honking.  It doesn't last long, maybe 10 mins in all, but its enough to break up a sleep pattern.  So I pushed the snooze button this morning. 

I can't even remember now if her and I made it all the way around the block this morning -- but  I think so.  Work was much busier than a typical Thursday - and that's usually my day for catching up on the last minute things.  But all day long, it seemed as if things didn't stop coming back to claims to be processed.

The good note of the day was I got in a workout on my lunch hours - yes, hours.  I had to take a 2 hour lunch today, so having the gym next door really helps!!

Brian worked til 5:15 -- or supposedly.  I arrived to pick him up at 5:30 and he was still working.  Finally by 6 he was ready to leave.  Usually its not a problem, I know how retail is, you never leave exactly on time.  But its Thursday - our library and Taco Bell night.   We headed straight for the library only to discover that one of the discs for Pawn Stars was missing (oops, my fault).  But 4 of Brian's movies weren't turned in either.  Another Ooops.  They couldn't be renewed because there was a charge on the account for the missing DVD.   siiiiigh

By now its 6:30pm and no way can I do Taco Bell.  I have to get those DVDs back to the library before they charge me $2/day/DVD.   I'm beginning to think that my time with weekly visits to the library is coming to an end.  Over the summer, with the trips I took home, and other issues, I ended up paying close to $100 total in fines.  With the holidays coming up, and Brian's work schedule that rotates, its too hard to make a library night right now. 

So after a quick shower and then grabbing things to be ready for morning, here I sit, venting a little bit to get this day off my thoughts .... and that will help me sleep.

Yep  Everyone has "one of those days" every now and then.
Today was my turn.
*sigh*
