another monday

I'm feeling a little bit more bubbly and cheery today.
Perhaps the sign of a better week.

NOT my week

I started my softball career with t-ball and have easily been playing
first base for 15 years. In that time I have NEVER missed a ball that
was thrown at my face - in fact I often joke, "just throw it at my
face - instincts will kick in."

I swear I was focused yesterday, enjoying a softall game on a sunny
afternoon, and in all truth I was having a pretty good game.

Until third base threw me a ball, which I watched tip off the top of
my glove and up under my ball cap to hit me square in the noggin'
above my left eye.

I know have some lovely red speckles and a bit of a gooseegg...

DAMMIT!

Thank goodness it will be Friday tomorrow!

Tuesday sucks too...

My doctor instructed me to try a Gluten free diet today.

Gluten is in wheat.

Wheat is in nearly everything.

AWESOME! *sarcasm intended*

day discrimination

I try to be fair and do my best NOT to dislike Monday's any more than the rest of the week, despite the fact that it does of course mark the begining of the week...this week, however I am fearful it may be a long week and I am NOT enjoying my monday.

 

Here's my Monday PRE - 8:30am

• Get out of bed 1 snooze early in an attempt to catch the earlier bus and not get to work by the "skin of my teeth" ontime
• While walking out of my underground parking, I hear a car behind me and move to the side of the driveway.  My feet hit the pile of slippy mud (that is left behind by the puddles that continually puddle in our drive-way) abd  I slip and fall, slightly skinning my knee.
• Head out to the busstop, only to hear the bus as I approach the corner.  I RUN as fast as I can (which truly is not that fast) only to arrive at the bus stop as the bus pulls away.
• At this point I am left with two options. 1. I can wait 20 minutes for the next bus. 2. I can walk about 8 minutes to the actual depot where buses will leave 2 in that 20 minute period.  I walk to the other bus stop.
• I get off the skytrain with plenty of time to make it to work and as I run down the stairs, I slip ONCE again, sliding on my bum for 3-4 steps while everyone looks at me.

ARGH what a morning - fortunatley the rest of the day seems to be going ok. *knock on wood*
