I Used to be Good at Multitasking
So, this morning I was talking to Aunt Banana on the phone while I was making breakfast and cookies. First I halved the pancake mix and not the milk, so I had to make twice as many pancakes as I meant to, then I put in 1 cup too many of flour into the cookie dough. Later I was getting ready to dry my hair and had the hair dryer sitting on the side of the sink. I had to go potty first (because I “go” about 50 times a day now) and, you guessed it, when I opened the lid of the toilet the hair dryer fell off the sink and into the toilet, which had not been flushed. Potty water in the hair dryer = not good. I dried my hair in front of the fan. Although I was slightly afraid to leave the house (who knew what else would happen to me out there in the world??), a trip to Target to purchase a new purple hair dryer, milk and pancake mix quickly ensued. Perhaps if there were more than an inch between the sink and toilet, this would not have happened.
Dear Target: I am ready to buy Valentine candy. Where is it???????? All you had to offer me was Dove hearts and M&M’s. I want cinnamon hearts, Sweet-tarts, conversation hearts and the like. You have swim suits and Easter dishes, but no Valentines. What is going on????
I thought yesterday, which involved a lot of toddler bodily fluids and laundry, wasn’t my day. I guess today wasn’t it either. Seriously, universe, you are kicking my ass here. Have I offended you in some manner?
Looking on the bright side I have upcoming visits from Juju, Aunt Banana & my mom, and Arwyn has a trip to Aunt Banana’s scheduled. What will I do when I’m not changing clothes, sheets, and digging my hair dryer out of the toilet???

It might be an old wives’ tale, but I KNOW these things happen more when you’re pregnant!!!

I was just going to say. Sounds like a pregnant moment. Or actually several of them. Of course, this may not help you in the least but there you have it. I always said my brain was mush during pregnancy. And beyond!
