The button came off my pants and I didn't have time to sew it back on or change before work, so I safety pinned them (which was a hassle every time I had to go to the bathroom).
When blow drying my hair, I knocked a dried flower arrangement off of the wall. I couldn't vacuum up the
I dropped Cody's Twinkie Minion Valentines on the floor. Some of them came apart, but repairing them would have to wait.
While teaching a group of kids during work circle, the secretary, via the florist, delivered these roses to me...

They were from my husband. The children loved it. So did I!
I couldn't drive all over town holding a beautiful flower arrangement, so I had to leave work 15 minutes early to drop off the flowers at home before going to my hair appointment.
Once I was home, I threw together half a sandwich and a Diet Coke to inhale on the way to the salon.
While sitting under the dryer, I received a text from Katelyn and Casey saying they were at my house waiting for me. Katelyn had forgotten I told her the day before that I wouldn't be home.
I ran late at the salon and had to ask Casey to stay at the house and get Cody off of his day program van.
I had barely been home 15 minutes when Chase dropped off my grandsons (whom I love dearly) for me to babysit.
Doing me a favor, Casey closed all the doors in the hallway to keep the toddlers out of mischief, then he went home and left me alone with the two little boys and Cody.
I fixed and fed them grilled cheese sandwiches and popsicles for dinner.
I decided to attempt to start Cody's bath, but found his bedroom door locked...from the inside. I had to wait for Don to come home from work and help me unlock it.
A mutual friend called to let me know Mrs. B. was in the hospital and we would be having a sub for Valentine's Day.
Once the grand kids went home, I finished fixing Cody's valentines, vented via text to my mom and sister and got into bed by 9:15 without shedding a single tear!
I tossed and turned and when I was finally able to sleep, I had nightmares about Kindergarten and substitute teachers.
The morning, however, has come and gone and somehow I survived.
That's the GOOD and BAD. In case you are wondering what the UGLY is, it's my attitude sometimes. I really am blessed. I have a good job and great family and friends.
THIS makes it all worth while...
