What a day!

Have you ever had just a terribly trying day? I'm sure anyone reading this has, and I'm sure you all got past it just like I am going to. It just seems as each page turns into a new day things just get even more crazy. Which, if you are reading a book is a great thing. Who doesn't like a little bit of crazy in a story? However, in real life, when it rains; it pours. And it sure does flood a lot where I'm sitting.

I am nothing if not positive, and I'm sure my crazy every day life will turn into a bouquet of roses before I know it. Until that day I will just keep on trucking.

My day at work was frustrating, as it always is. Working in a grocery store is definitely not all it's cracked up to be. Today was no exception. We had no help and the help we had was sick, so of course they couldn't stay and work. We've all been through it, at least anyone who needed to pay their bills. We go to work sick and just can't make it to the end of the day. What really sucks is when that person isn't replaced and you have about four times the workload that you had. But when you are sick, you shouldn't be working. Sometimes, that is. And I hope my co-worker feels better soon. Then, of course I come home and all my children do is fight which aggravates my husband. Then the stress levels rise and boom. The bomb explodes, or in our household people get angry and the kids get put in their rooms.

I hate being a mother when I have to discipline my children. Although I know they need the discipline or else they will run wild, it's still taxing on myself to have to do it. I'm one of those people who just wants to be friends. I'm working on it. I understand fully that you can't iron out every situation and that sometimes people just aren't going to get along. Case and point: my two children. Why is it that brother and sister are always at each others throats? I hope and pray that one day they will get along. We'll see what happens.

In the meantime, I bid you adieu and am off to escape into the realm of fiction. No work tomorrow, so I will have a late night fantasizing about people who just don't really exist, except for in my head and on a page:)
