A Typical Bronwell Week!

It has been a while since I have posted....let's just say it has been a typical Bronwell week!!

I'll back up to last Thursday....the 18th. So I was still have having eye drama as we all know. Well my drama the day got so much worse...I felt like I was in an episode of I Love Lucy!! (That feeling seems to run in the family....right Tif?! lol)

So on Thursdays we are extra busy. All started out well with the girls having skating lessons. We ate dinner at the practice rink (even got a surprise visit from Big Daddy) because we started team figure skating that day from 6:00-6:30....then of course we had to hurry off to the game. Things were going as planned. The girls we a little whiny when it came time to get on the ice the second time. Addison didn't do so well. She lost focus about half way through and started crawling away from the teachers on the ice. Yep the crazy child that eats the snow and crawls on the ice is mine! So the girls get off the ice and we are rushing to get skates off and then to the bathroom to change clothes and do hair....when Ashleigh's skate sliced my ring finger on my right hand. No biggie...I carry band aids in my purse, so I put on one. The girls teacher comes up to talk to me about the lesson...and I look...and blood is running down my entire arm onto my shirt. I hurry and end the conversation and pull out another band aid and put it on. Problem solved right? HAHAHAHA

We rush to the bathroom and get everything done then hurry up and get to the game. As we are walking in the arena, I feel something warm and stick on my arm. Yep the blood is now flowing like a faucet down my arm again and dripping everywhere! Good times ahead for me I can see...since I am out of band aids!

We hurry downstairs and, of course, we were late so we missed seeing Rick. I had to have the usher go and get him in the locker room! He came out and saw my drama and went back in to get things to fix me. He bandaged my finger up to look like I had been totally injured! A skate nicked my finger...you'd think a simple injury..then again I'm not your typical person!

So upstairs we go....me with my bandaged finger, blood all over me and eye that looked like it was on crack!! Things at this point, I didn't think could get any worse...again...HAHAHA!

All throughout the game, people kept asking me if I was okay, that it had looked like I was crying. So the game ends....I think we won...I don't remember now. So I start down the stairs...you know where this is going. I was trying to watch the girls....at the same time this damn psycho fan that sits in our section, asked me for the THIRD time in a row if the girls were twins. I answer her and look back down at Addison and my right heel caught the edge of the stairs....and down I went! I was so embarrassed!! Thankfully I only had on boots with a 2 inch heel or so. I fell on my left ankle and hit by back. Nothing too bad....so I figured I would be okay....when my psysho fan says...."That's gonna hurt tomorrow!" I'm so done with crazy people! I manage to get myself up and down the rest of the stairs without falling again. Falling is so not fun!

I was on the verge of tears and almost went home. I should listen to myself more often! I made it downstairs, got my eye looked at again, and then to the practice rink we went. I usually go with Rick after a game. So again, I should have just gone home! Nope instead I was telling Rick about my night, how I was almost going to have a breakdown...when I tripped over a cart! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!?!!!

So now....my eye is still on crack...I'm crying because I am so clumsy.....which makes my eye hurt even more....my finger hurts like hell.....my ankle is swollen....my back is throbbing when I hit it on the stairs.....and now my knee hurts! Good times!

I can look back now and kinda laugh at the whole situation....but seriously...I almost had a mental breakdown!

So now, today, things are MUCH better. I still had a Lucy moment when I threw the hose down after spraying off the lawnmower to get the wet grass off it and the hose decided to come alive and spray me in the face...but at least my eye is better...and tomorrow I can wear contacts that I will be able to see with!!

And my bitch today, as it is whenever I mow the yard, (Yes I shouldn't be bitching about mowing in February)......what kind of person lets their dog take a HUGE crap in someone else's yard and doesn't pick it up?!?!?!

So all in all..things have been going better. Big Daddy is out of town until Saturday night so the girls and I are just taking it easy. Ashleigh asked me today if she could take herself to the bathroom when we were in a restaurant for lunch. I didn't let her because Addison had to go too...but seriously I can't believe we are at that stage already....oh and beginning March 2nd....kindergarten enrollment starts! I'm gonna go crazy!! But then again...what else is new!?!?!?!!?!!

Oh and I bought myself a new pair of shoes....to replace the boots that I threw away after my drama. Of course they have a 4 and 1/2 inch heel! No joke but they are oh so cute!!!! I can tell they are going to lead to some stories as well! Yes I know...I am crazy! lol
