Crazy... Bad Luck... It can't get worse...
23 December 2006Posted by Mother Faerie @ Saturday, December 23, 2006 Wow. Just wow.
I ordered my FIL and my mother really nice bound photo books for their holiday gifts. I spent a lot of time selecting photo's, uploading the, doing the page layouts and phrases, quotes, etc. Well that was back in November... I got 1/2 my order in... the small memory books, which are wallet sized pictures I got for aunts and uncles and close friends and family. They said the photo books were on delay. A few days later I got a email confirmation that they were shipped. They never arrived at the store though. I called the photo place at least 5 times and they kept reassuring me that they were shipped. Finally I just got a refund at the store because when the mgr called they had the nerve to tell him that my order number didn't exist!!! I'm so pissed.
So that was strike one.
After leaving with a refund we had to go hunting for new gifts. The kids were hungry and because micky d's were having the littlest petshop pets in their happy meals we headed there (the kids collect them). The door between the play place and the dining room is heavy and Amaya went through it, the door swung back pushed her to the ground and then wedged her head between the door fram and the door! She got a scrape down one leg, a swollen knee, bruises on her head where the door slammed on it and a bloody nose. Poor girl was a mess! We ended up filling out an incident report.
So that was strike two.
Oh, before we went to Mc'D's Dh and I stopped at the Japanese resteraunt to get us some sushi... and they forgot about us!!! I waited and waited for our order for carry out and I finally left. : /
So maybe that was strike two and poor Amaya was strike Three.
But no that wasn't it... It just kept going down hill from there. At the mall (still on the hunt for gifts) Amaya lost her gloves. The new gloves daddy just bought her and of course that set her off big time. Major melt down :( Not good.
And of course I had to work. It was one miserable customer after the next. I'm stressed and agitated.
To top off the day... my stomach ulcer decided to flare hard because of all my stress :( Not good. I'm not happy at all. I need to call my dr and get some strong meds going. blah.
And guess what it still doesn't end there!!!! Yesterday, last night at 10 we were supposed to be at the air port to pick up FIL, SIL and BIL. Well their plane arrived in chicago and thier connecting flight to Kansas City was cancelled!!! They were put into a hotel and were fed and thankgoodness we have family in chicago. They are with them right now. The next flight to Kansas City isn't available until Sunday! Xmas eve! Supposedly they'll be here about 8pm. I get off at 6, hopefully out of work at about 7, otherwise dh is going to have to drop the kids off at my mothers to go get them. Then it's crazy xmas day. Then I work tues and then off wed and thursday.
It's going to be hectic for sure : /
I'm probably not going to sign on again until after xmas. So all of you out there, thanks for listening to me vent, and I'll see ya in a few days.
