Uh Oh Oct 25, 2012
OMGOSH! Why is it that nor my brain or my body ever cooperates with my alarm! I’m running late AGAIN! Dressed, teeth skimmed over and hair tamed, ugh! I’ll have to do my make up at the red lights, of which now I’m sure, will be very single one. Thankfully the coffee maker is obedient to its timer. Pour some in my plastic travel mug, grab an apple, my purse and my briefcase in a mad dash for my car.
I set everything down on the trunk of my car “WHERE ARE MY KEYS!” I search, but I find nothing, now a frantic dash back to the house. Oh thank goodness, I had just dropped them on the steps, phew! Back to the car, throw my purse and briefcase to the passenger seat and I’m all set. My car starts without hesitation, maybe this won’t be such a bad day after all. As I back out of my driveway I hear it but I don’t have time to stop. As I drive away I look back to confirm that, in fact, I runneth over my cup.
