Gather around the kitchen table and enjoy some of my famous (well, not really all that famous) poundcake! Let's talk about life in general and get to know each other better. :)

Harriet,
I hope that you are in bed by now! :shock: Was that just one day or the whole week? :eek: I will say a prayer for you, and hopefully, I will hear of a better days events tomorrow. :eusa_pray You should send todays journal to Laugh In, or late night-Sat night, or something. Our country would benefit from a skit about your one day. :eusa_wall Most of us only experience that kind of turmoil, maybe in a month.
Take care of yourself, :aniflower :wave:

Hi Lorna:wave:

Welcome to the forums!! I have been slightly under the weather to put it mildly...so my chatting has been suffering along with my red nose, headache, sore throat,coughing and sneezing like crazy....Human faucet here!

But...I am sure we can be good friends too!! Have often been told I have a dry wit...kinda wet at the moment though...

My Day today>>>Woke up to hubby....freaking out because he locked his keys in his car....well since it is his Demo(car salesman) we have no backup key and he works about 40 miles from home....so....he is suppose to be at the doctor at yeah..right then....so call his buddy the locksmith....and says can I drive your car....sure go ahead....well....my car goes GLUGH...and he says did you leave the lights on....ahhh...no....my battery is DEAD!!! By now his blood pressure is off the charts....neighbor...trys to jump...no jump....I have returned to my bed to bury my head!! Cause movement sends shooting pain through my temples and the room spins! Next he is asking me where the long orange extension cord is for the charger...like it isn't always in the same place!! OK...he gets car started and off he goes..I come back inside...now I have to get dressed to greet the Locksmith...so I am trying to lock front door back and you know how you turn a deadbolt with the key, well the key just goes all the way around...I am hallucenating now, I know I misspelled that, but, its hard to type and spell with tissue ...never mind....too much info....

I call hubby, whats up with the door lock...beats me..get Grant to check that too!! Now I am dying to crawl back under the covers...anyway...My ex shows up about this time and I am reminded that I have got to pay the electric bill this day...or lights out....SO...now I have no car and no way to go to bank to cash checks....not that driving would be a smart thing to do in my present condition. I call hubby again...are you going to work today? Well I was suppose too, but if I don't make it by 12:00, was told to take the day instead of thursday, and so, what is it now....well can you please pay the electric bill, but I have to go cash this check, so you can...he finally gets home and we go to bank...and back across town to the pay station at the Pig and guess what? the Piggly Wiggly office is closed for remodeling....now give me a break...its a booth in the grocery store...what the heck do they have to remodel? My hubby gets back in car and I look at him and burst out laughing....I said...Do you get the feeling someone is trying to send us a message...he said yeah...Go Back To BED!!! He gets on the phone and calls CP&L to find out where else you can pay the bill...cause I have no clue, the only other place I know has closed down(Winn Dixie)!!

He gets a location and I say...Please:cry: can I go HOME!! I go crawl back in bed and he is off again! OK my eyes are crossing...there are a few more things that happened but...you get the idea...Life is Stranger than Fiction!

I will be fine as long as the Kleenex doesn't run out!!

Feel so bad, don't even think CHOCLATE would help!!:doubt:

SO...What do you do when the Teacher is sick....
