You know it is going to be a long day when...

There are just some days when you can tell immediately that it is going to be one of "those days."  Below is a list of things that have happened that made me know it's going to be a rough day.

You know it will be a long day when…..

….There is more time outs before breakfast than there normally are in a week.

….You wake up to a mud pie.  On your pillow.

…..You get a call one hour before the alarm should go off asking you to work early.

….. When you are in the shower the 4-going-on-14yr-old starts prepubescent hormonal howling            

…..The kids miss the bus

…..The alarm doesn’t go off.

….You didn’t go shopping so breakfast choices are limited to mac and cheese, canned peas, or left over spaghetti.

….You wake up to a toddler and a cat in the bathroom sink with the water running.

How do you know it will be a long day at your house?
