Could be worse...

This was our day:

Wake up in a fog
The kids beat me downstairs
Ants are all over the entire floor/kitchen/dining room
We have no groceries for breakfast

We make due.
I treat ant issue

Seconds apart, 3 different kids fall and bonk their heads
Miss M spilled a cup of coffee all over the newly mopped floor

I call the kids together onto the living room floor and we do devotions and try to "reset" the day.

Devotions are the book Job-
which sparked questions-
which lead to us reading the first 5 chapters and the last 5 chapters of the book.

Our newest puppy got injured-so I made a quick call to the vet.
I have the family's "bad" vehicle because I wasn't planning on going anywhere today.

I find a good friend to watch the kids
Drive the puppy to the vet
As I'm pulling in the vet parking lot, the van dies. Straight dies. Engine is a total rebuild.

A soldier in uniform asked me if there was "someone else" I could call for help because he HAD to get to work. And I should "have a good day". Karma dude.. it's coming... (btw I was in a dangerous place on the highway and he didn't help)

The vet staff and an elderly man helped me push my van to the nearest parking lot that was uncrowded.
This parking lot, just so happened to be a stripper bar called "triple Ds"
My mister comes to the rescue.
Van has to be left in the strip club parking lot.
Puppy's leg is broken.
Vet says "Come back in two hours we will have him fixed"
I rush home, grab the kids, and return.
Hubby calls tow truck while I'm gone.

Tow truck takes HOURS to arrive. Korbin (who just had adenoids removed) was so distraught and crying, that he made himself throw up 3 times.

I pick up puppy, pick up hubby, return home and realize I still have no groceries for supper.

Popcorn and frozen chicken nuggets to the rescue.
I'm SO GLAD today is over!!

And PS: I am still smiling!

Know why? Because it could be worse. How ironic that we read Job first thing this morning!!
