Being Flexible

My husband punched his laptop last night and *surprise* it is broken, so all of the work he was scheduled to do this morning had to be done from the office and not from the comforts of home, where he could be with his kids while mommy went to work out with her sisters - her one, non-negotiable (or so I thought) block of time that is hers out of the crazy hectic week. RANT OVER.

He was back home by 7:30, but too late for me to be with my sisters. I wasn't up to doing anything, but I went out anyway and did 2 miles with the dog. Next, I had to go to the Town Hall to sign up for summer programs. Two hours of waiting and I didn't get the kids into the camp they wanted. We are WAITLISTED.

I know that I need to be FLEXIBLE - BUT ...

I really look forward to seeing my sisters. It is my time to share my week with people that really care to listen and offer advice. I can be myself. I am disappointed it didn't happen today. I have really had a difficult week emotionally and I could have used a little pat on the back.

I didn't sleep well last night and this CRAZY weekend just continues. Skating, School carnival, getting ready for Gram's overnight and skating competition tomorrow. Oh, and we have a social function tonight that will go until midnight. It's hard being a mom and a wife sometimes.
