Tuesdays

So can I just say I dislike Tuesdays! We start the day at 630 and get everyone off to school on time by 800. Then Dylainee and I run home to try and get a few things done. Today's to do list included: rushing to be at an laser hair appt at the mall in Orem by 930. I didn't have anyone to watch Dylainee so I figured if I put her in her stroller and give her a binki and the Ipad, I would be set for the whole 5 minutes that it takes. So off we went. The freeway is under construction so I am late like always. Then the mall isn't open yet so I have to park by the food court and walk down. Of course I didn't plan for that. Usually I can drive faster or park illegal to gain back time, but I got nothin here. I am still gonna be late. I am rushing with Dylainee and the stroller toward the store which I might add has an all glass front.  I back up to open the door so I can pull the stroller through the door closes and smacks me in the elbow hard. The bad news is all 3 employees are watching the whole thing........ don't swear, don't cry, ok swear! I then begin to plead my case about being late and having Dylainee with me. The lady stares at me blankly and says we are not a licensed daycare and we cannot watch her. I rudely say, I don't need you to watch her! I just need know if there is someone at this reception desk at all times. I will assume the risk. I was really ticked. I told her how wonderful my 2 year old is and she would be fine. The reluctantly agreed to not reschedule me, but I was given a warning that if I brought my child again I would be rescheduled. Hello, I am an adult, and seriously those appts take 5 minutes. She then asks me "What's her name?" Dylainee, but you won't even need to talk to her she will be fine. I go back for my appt and I think I was out in 4 minutes, and Dylainee was still watching Mickey Mouse on the Ipad. Darling child! Then the lady says would you like to step in the office and see the special we have for October? So let me get this right your not a daycare for a treatment you have already been paid for, but if it is a possible sale than Dylainee if fine to be in the waiting room! Annoyed. Anyways fast forward to Victoria Secrets for 2 bras and some roos. Then we make our way back to the car and I wish I could say in a hurry, but that would be lying because Dylainee wanted to push the stroller the whole way.
We make it home for lunch, naps and laundry. We leave by 245 to pick up kids and run home for our version of homework which is more like begging and pleading and constant follow up. Off to piano by 5 and wait for her Brink for a half an hour and then we run like mad to get Aniston to gymnastics in Alpine by 545 and then we run home and try and find something for dinner only to run back and get her by 645. I dislike Tuesdays!
