Somedays are uneventful...

...Some days are full of drama. Some days can be completely ruined by one single event. That is how I felt yesterday. My day was OK, good even. I did have a pretty bad headache but that is becoming pretty normal. I had a very productive day going through paper, working on taxes and organizing my desk. I felt good at 2:45 when Ian arrived home. At 2:55 we were loading up to go get one of my daycare kids from school. Everyone was buckled up but I had a mom who was late and I wanted to call her to let her know where we were in case she came while I was gone. I ran inside to grab my phone and was distracted for a few minutes, maybe 3-4. When I came out Ian was out of his seat belt, out of the Tahoe and sitting in the driveway. I thought nothing of it and loaded him back in to go. I started backing up when SLAM! I hit something. Great, I thought. What on earth did Ian leave behind me? Hoping it wasn't his brand new bike I climbed out to check. Nothing. That was weird. I tried again. SLAM! it was like my brakes were locked up. I tried going forward, tried going backward, I pressed harder on the gas; Nothing. Adam had worked on the brakes on Saturday and I was sure he messed something up (sorry babe).  I scrambled to figure out what do do next. I had 5 kids, on my way to pick up one more and no way to do it. I called neighbors to see if they could go get her, no one answered. I frantically called the late daycare mom thinking she could somehow rescue me. No answer. Matthais finally came home so I could leave my kids with him and took off in the truck. When I took a good look at the Tahoe I found out Ian had been doing his own mechanic work....

When I tried to leave it jammed that baby in there harder. Yep. One single event that had me so worked up it ruined my day. Ian usually saves these kind of antics for when it's warmer and he plays outside all day. Guess he's getting a jump start on his trouble making!

Oh man. What was it that he put in there? Never a dull day. And why are you getting so many headaches?
