What a week. I'm not going to lie, it sucked pretty royally. I'm exhausted from it sucking so bad (is that possible? It is possible. I'm just going to relish in it) I'm not going to share the worst of it with you, but I will say that when we had to make an emergency run to the pharmacy on Monday, all was not well. I let Kate push the cart, she kept bumping it into my heels, (you know what I mean), and then my shoe broke (awesome). I'm holding Charlie, but he doesn't want to be held, which makes holding him a major chore. We grabbed a 1/2 gallon of rainbow sherbet (I promised) and we self-check out. It's our fastest option. We make it out in 10 minutes. I'm relieved. It felt like the longest 10 minutes of my life. Oh there's our car, hooked up to a tow truck. It's just after 4:00 and there's no parking after 4 p.m. The $88 ticket on my windshield isn't enough. I have to pay the tow-truck driver $225 to lower my two front tires back on the ground. He didn't tow my car 2 inches. This was not the worst of it (you can see now how one would be exhausted). I'm tired. It was just the beginning of a very long, hard & exhausting week. Anyway, we drowned our sorrows in free kids quesadilla's, rice & beans and Pork Barbacoa Salad from Cafe Rio in Manhattan Beach.
Mexican food makes us feel better, plus Kate loves the salad dressing so much she drinks it straight from the cup!
Here's to a better week next week and our last week of school. Woohoo!!
