Not so great good thing

Today has not been a very good day. No particular reason. Just the hard parts of pregnancy, life with a toddler, & just feeling down all in one day. But the day must go on, & things must get done. So Paige & I went out & ran errands, one of which was picking up stain for our fireplace mantel. I took a little longer picking out stain because there was no exact match to my cabinets. I finally picked a combination out & we headed home. (mind u we are now late for Paige's nap. Tired cranky baby & mommy). We pull into our garage & I'm unbuckling Paige & somehow the can of stain falls out of the car and SPLATTERS all over our garage floor!!! What a great way to end a great errand run. NOT!! I utterly broke down & called Jared just bawling. He reassured me he can fix it, & I didn't ruin our house & he still loves me. What a great man to put up with my dramas =>. So now, after I have sufficiently stuffed myself with chocolate & the baby is down I go out & get the rest of the stuff from errands out of the car & I realize something. The stain isn't even the right color to match my cabinets. So, maybe in some far future I will see this as a blessing & tender mercy because I didn't put all that time & effort into painting my mantel just to find its the wrong color. As for now, I just need ice cream & more chocolate.

At least it wasn't in your car! That does suck! I got turkey grease off our cement patio out back, so I bet Jared will use that same stuff. Crappy! Love you.
