One of the worst days of my LIFE!

On Tuesday morning I woke up like any normal day, except I woke up at 4:00, and couldn't go back to bed. So I was starting the day off pretty tired. So I did my routine during the day, dropped the kids off, went to training, and then came home and picked up Jon. We had picked out a new washer and dryer the day before, so I was SOOO excited to bring them home on Tuesday. We went to the store and went to pick them up. Nothing was ready, so we ended up waiting around for about a 1/2 hour, which wasn't that big of a deal, but we also had to go to the bank and I had to go to the college for some things.

So I barely made it to the bank in time, and then went off to the college. The dept. I needed closed at 5:00, and I made it there at 5:15. AUGH!! So I figured I'd just register for some classes. Yeah, the lady behind the counter was sooo slow, and was just messing around and joking with the other people. So something taht should have taken 5-10 min., ended up taking about 45 min.! So while I was in there, Jon was in the van with all three kids, trying to keep them entertained.

So we finally got the washer and dryer home, got the old ones out in the garage, and I started hooking up the new ones while Jon was trying to get the momma mouse and her babies out of our grill!!!! (yeah, another nuciance!) I was so excited to try them, but I had to go to walmart to get some HE detergent. While I was just pulling into the parking lot, I get a phone call from Jon saying that ALL the water that was IN the washer, was now on our floor!!! We had standing water in the laundry room, bathroom, hallway, and part of the boys room. We were both really mad thinking it was broke. So Jon sends me to Home Depot to pick up a wet vac. As soon as I got the wet vac in the car and I'm on the way home I get another call from Jon saying SOMEONE (umm... me...) forgot to put the drainage hose in the drainage hole for the hose... So yeah.. the whole water mess was MY fault, cause I was a do-do and didn't hook up the hose right!!

So.. I get home, and Jon starts sucking up the water, but I wanted to do it (to make sure it was done right :) ) So I ended up almost going into labor because I was so persistant on doing it myself!! (not really going into labor, but it sure felt like it!) So I finally get it most of the way dry, get to bed, and the next moring my alarm didn't go off, so I didn't get up till 7:45! Then I found out a little boy that we'd been praying for really hard died the night before.

This was, seriously, one of the worst days of my life.
