April 24. 2008. What a crazy/terrible/enlightening/etc day. It started out alright, if you call a snow storm at the end of April alright. McKay has a terrible bum rash that could be a bacterial infection, or a yeast infection, allergic reaction, or just a bad rash...which no Dr. can diagnose. The chiropractor broke my back, and I slid off the freeway exit because I was stopping to fast. Wow, I'm laying down finally, and listening to Norah Jones.
"feeling down, by the fire, the long day is over now"
My long day has finally come to an end. I feel a little like a pessimist, maybe I am, maybe I'm not. But surely I feel the right to be a little negative. Life is sometimes hard, it's sometime trying. I feel like maybe we shouldn't try to be so perfect, and happy! WHY CAN'T PEOPLE JUST HAVE BAD DAYS! Maybe if we just got out all of our negativity all at once, more people would be happy.
I guess this is the time when we should count our blessing, and be grateful for what we have. I guess this the time when I should be looking towards the light..you know that half glass full stuff.
What about we just forget out that for now. I feel like a deserve a little bit of half glass empty.
1. Car sliding off the road. I was late, of course, so I was speeding down the freeway which by the way was all backed up because the weather decided to have a freak snow storm at the end of April! I ran my car into the dirt/grassy part of the side of the freeway which made me more late All of this steamed back to the fact that I was late leaving my mother-in-laws because I couldn''t find McKay's bottle and he was screaming for food food food. I was late getting to my mother in laws because Dylerhti didn't want to come in early, and I couldn't figure out how to leave work on time. This actually goes back to the fact that I can never say no to anyone when they ask me for a favor. I shouldn't have even been working, but I had to switch my schedule all around because there was a wedding tonight that I had to go to. Gosh...and you don't even want to guess. I made a special book for this wedding which they didn't even use, why, because I don't know. I spent 40 dollars and hours of work making this book, but I guess it all just steams back to the desire to be generic and boring and using a plain white book that people just sign on lines is better.
2. Mckay's bum rash. Seriously. This is so bad. Its looks like a third degree burn. Everyone I talk to has a different idea/solution. Nobody, even the doctors don't know what this is. Why do they go to medical school, so they can educately guess what is wrong with your child. I have been prescribed four different things that won't work, they don't know what it is....so, I just keep trying and trying and nothing is working. Nothing is fixing this, which I don't know why this upsets me I guess it would just be nice if we could get a straight answer that I didn't have to spend 20 copay after 20 copay trying to figure out.
3. FREAK SNOW STORM. Talk about seasonal depression. Why the is it snowing on April 24. This is the time for spring, flowers, short sleeves and walks in the park. I think the weather is just taunting us...it wants us to think that it is getting warming and the BAM! snow! I feel really tired of this back and forth.
I feel really upset that all this crap had to land on one day...but in keeping with the glass half whatever, at least it landed all on one day, because that means I should be free from these disasters for a while. Tomorrow should be a better day. It should be brighter and cleaning and full of fresh new excited surprises. But, until then I'm going to be gloomy and grumpy.
