FOREVER YOUNG/did you ever have one of those days?

Did you ever have one of those days when things just keep happening to you... Well on this particular day, yesterday to be exact, I took my mom to the doctors. Now I never take a cup of coffee with me, especially when I do, I try to make sure I have a lid to put on top of it, but of course I didn't.

I was running a little late, because for some reason traffic seemed to be unbelievable, which I couldn't  understand since it wasn't Monday, but Tuesday, when traffic usually dies down somewhat. So I phoned to tell her I would be late. Now I do NOT hold the phone in my hand because it's programed into my radio, so whenever I make a call, it filters through that. But I have to disconnect it, so that entails picking up the phone to do that.

Now after I informed my mom, I would be a little late, of course it was time to disconnect the phone, so after doing that,  I went to put my phone down, when I felt liquid touch my hand. To say the least, I had dunk my phone into the coffee. Don't you usually dunk donuts into coffee. I wonder what a phone would taste like, with coffee.... only kidding.

So  now I have a blank screen, and lost everything.  And I'm still waiting for my phone to dry, but at least my phone still works, for how long I don't know.  Maybe it's better not to see anything... nah, need to see my icons, very important part of my life, I'm sure you'll agree..

Once I laughed about this predicament,  well I really didn't laugh, I picked my mother up and took her to the doctors, which should have be an hour,. While she was there, I had to go to the store and get some things for her, then get gas for my car, and then drove back to the doctors, but mom was not finished with her treatment, so I had to wait another twenty minutes, anticipating that I will never get back home in time, to take my niece and her boyfriend to the airport to catch their flight home.

I'm out of breath just writing this.. ..

When finally my mom was finished, I drove her home and then went home. My husband was rearing to go, as well as my niece and her boyfriend.  After we dropped them off at the airport, and we said our goodbyes, our intentions was to go straight home. But since my cousin's didn't live too far from where we were, we decided to pop in and see them.  Another hour went by.

Thinking we were going straight home, my husband told me he needed to pick up a key for a job he was doing tomorrow,  which was another ten minutes away,  and then I sat in the car for another ten minutes waiting, and finally we were on our way home.

And that's when I plopped myself down on the couch.. oh no, that's not what I did, I had to get dinner started, because I had a writing group meeting with my teens that night, so I cooked dinner, and then plopped myself down on the couch, Oh Yes I Did, but only for ten minutes before it was time to get up and go...

So you see if anyone was happy to see this day end, I was.  Ten minutes must be the magical number, it seems everything took about ten minutes except for for one, that took twenty minutes.... lol...  Well not really, some things actually took an hour.....lol.    Now you see why I need a vacation......

So for me, I never want this day ever to be, FOREVER YOUNG
