Cause & Effect

Totally productive but late night = Completely unproductive day

Putting Landon in timeout while I talk to my dad = Landon getting into upstairs toilet (with Conner's stale pee) and scooping it out with a fake ice cream cone ALL over the bathroom tile. It looked as though the bathroom was flooded.

Landon's bathroom mess = Bath for all 3 boys = splashing and more water on the floor

One batch of rice krispy treats = 3 lbs of fat on my mid section after eating 3/4 of them in 6 hours.

Biruk pooping on potty unattended (for 10 seconds) = Biruk walking out of bathroom with a shit trail following him while looking for me (even though I stressed DO NOT get off the toilet)

30 degree camping trip this coming week with my family = hair up my *ss and pretend shopping for a popup camper (instead of the tent)

Fake fantasy = need to get back to reality

Decided to set up my tent to get me excited = knocked the beautiful light fixture (with 4 globes and a dozen light bulbs) with the tent while putting in a pole

tiny little bump on the light = 25 lb light crashing to the floor = SHATTERED GLASS EVERYWHERE (at 10:00 at night no less)

And all I could think was 'thank god I bumped the tent with this light'. Could you imagine if one of the kids had thrown a football or toy at the fixture? I was almost relieved it happened. And I was able to clean it up while the kids slept. It sounds crazy but I think it was a blessing in disguise.

Weird, crazy, day = weird, crazy, blog post that makes absolutely no sense (with all sorts of grammatical errors)
