The Calm Before the Storm?

Nope.  It’s more like the storm before the bigger storm.  Today has been a whirlwind kind of day…

— up way too late last night getting things packed up to take to the U of M

— discovered this morning that I don’t have Microsoft Publisher on my computer anymore, so my “quick print off a new sign for the front doors for contest” turned into a major ordeal and eventually ended in me having to drive out to the MMTA office so they could print it.  And then it didn’t work there either… grr… it’s still a work in progress.

— trying to get out the door in a hurry and Chloe couldn’t get to the bathroom in time and had a huge accident

— already running late and then there is a car fire on 35W

— a judge for tomorrow called and said she’s sick and can’t do it.  Gah!

— calling to find a new judge (on very short notice)

— judge found

— volunteers calling to say their sick too, and can’t be there this weekend.  Gah!

— trip to the U of M to hang signs and test more pianos I couldn’t get to last week.

— now I’m home to teach for the evening.

But you know what makes it all a little more bearable?  A nice big caramel cooler from Caribou coffee. 🙂  Mmmmmmmm.   And a wonderful husband who cleaned up the house while I was gone this morning.  Oh and an adorable daughter with delightfully curly hair.  Yup, those things make it all better.
