Hey Mac Families,
Have you ever had one of those weeks? One of those months? One of those years?
Don't get me wrong... there have been LOTS of good things happening in my life. I am grateful for those things. But there are just small windows of time when it seems like everything is going wrong, to the point that it's *almost* comical. This has been one of THOSE weeks.
I feel like if I tell my MK besties, I might be able to get past the laundry list of debacles that I call life right now.
And you know how I love a list...
- My youngest had a four day weekend, which came at a time where we all could have used some extra sleep. Perfect. EXCEPT that our roof was being replaced and not only did the banging start at 7am, they were literally replacing the skylights. The skylights that are above my bed. You know, whilst I was trying to sleep in. Awk.
- I lost one of my favorite pots at my oldest son's graduation party (don't ask) but he managed to locate it and return it to me. Well, kind of. Because the one he returned was not MY pot. I decided to use it anyway. The first time I used it, my glass stove top cracked, rendering it completely useless. Karma is fun.
- We bought a new to us Prius for my daughter a couple of weeks ago, which meant that both of my college kids finally had their own transportation after each of them had some car issues. On the way home, the red triangle of death light went on. Now said Prius is in the shop, waiting for an expensive repair. Back down to sharing one car.
- Or so I thought.... because my son's girlfriend's car also died and was towed to the shop, too. She borrowed my son's car to get to her new job (100% valid as she has done the same for my son, just bad timing.). Down to no car.
- The refrigerator's temperature sensor died on Friday night, meaning we lost an entire fridge/freezer worth of food. Of course I had just gone shopping for groceries.
- Flag football play-offs are overlapping with our tickets to Life Size Monopoly.
- Basketball play-offs are overlapping with our friend's book release party.
- Basketball tryouts are overlapping with our tickets to Hamilton.
- Our McDonald's event was canceled due to ecoli.
- My mammogram had to be rescheduled because it somehow ended up switching locations to an hour away. No one knows how.
- My Target order arrived. Well, 25% of it did.
But at least I didn't lock myself out of my house. I mean, I could've grabbed a walnut. IYKYK.
Peace ☮️, Love ❤️, & Macaroni 🌼,
Christen
