I woke up this morning, bright and early, to do my normal routine of spending time with God and then at about 6:30 I put my clothes on and step outside for a run. I'm about 2/3rds of the way done, feeling good, and trip on the sidewalk (sidenote: Scranton has terrible Sidewalks and this was bound to happen sooner or later) and fall straight down, skid across the ground on my knee. never mind how dumb it must've looked, I was in quite a bit of pain, and you know the light headed feeling you get, plus I had just been running for like 2 and half miles. So I got up, made sure I could walk, and started walking home. UGH!!!! Very depressed and watching the bruise appear almost immediately, and the scrape looked gross too!!!!! Very sad day, b/c I wanted to do about 4 miles, but resorted to at least 3 and half. I had about a mile left, so I thought I would start running again. As I'm running up the huge hill close to our house I get shooting pain in my side, worse than a side cramp and have no idea what it is, and have to walk the rest of the way home anyways. WEird, but must be b/c of the scare of the fall, who knows. I get home very depressed about my run, and sorta wanting to cry.
Get home to our fridge not keeping cool (which happens about every 2 weeks). Richard is graciously feeding the boys, I'm trying to make his lunch, while he is trying to unload the freezer to start thawing it out with a blowdrying (which we do every 2 weeks or so). Boys are done eating and crying and running around. Richard decides to cook and egg and sausage for himself before work, and the fire alarm goes off (b/c they are so sensitive for some reason, if even steam comes off my stove the alarm goes off, and they aren't even next to each other) So we have screaming kids, fire alarms, and blowdrying all going at the same time. UGH! hahaha
And the funny part is, I have a cousin once removed that called me yesterday that wanted to see us, they will be in town for today only. So I told him to come for supper. So not only did I just get home from a trip last night, and our kitchen is a mess b/c we are thawing out our freezer so that the fridge will keep our food cold, but now I have to clean, grocery shop for supper, and organize my life before they get here at 3!!!!! While taking care of my 2 boys. All while my knee hurts from falling on it!!!!
Richard and I literally looked at eachother and laughed at the day!!! He left for work, I put Landon down for a nap, and need to get going on my very long list. I need to organize, put stuff away, get a grocery list together, get supper in order, and clean. :) FUN DAY!!!
Plus we are babysitting our neighbors kids for them (we do one night a month for free, and they do it for us one night a month, best deal ever!!!!) tonight after supper. WOW! Crazy day!!!! IT CAN ONLY GET BETTER!!!!!!! And I just might treat myself to an Iced Coffee on my way to the grocery store :)
Have a great Friday everyone!!!!!!!
