I Got It Handled

Mindy left this past Thursday for her annual girls trip with her friends from Freshman year at BYU.

So Friday morning I was up early. I had a hot breakfast waiting for the kids, I made 4 lunches and I got the boys hair combed.

I was feeling pretty good.

We read the scriptures, brushed teeth and got the beds made.

Now I'm starting to feel a little cocky.

I cleaned the kitchen and had Ryan (3) waiting for his carpool.

This was easy I chuckled to myself.

As I waved goodbye to Ryan I jumped into my car and headed North for my 1 hour commute. As I parked my car I went to grab my work bag....

It wasn't there. I had left it at home. In all the commotion, and patting myself on the back, I was thrown out of my routine.

So there I was an hour away from home with no computer and no key documents. I spent the day getting hassled by my co-workers as I apologized time and again for not having documents I needed for meetings.

So next time I get a call from Mindy telling me she forgot her purse, sunglasses, items she just purchased at a store, etc. I am not going to say a word.

I love this. It proves that you are not just human, but super human. to have accomplished all that. You and Mindy make a great team. I've said it before and I'll say it again.

Love it!!! I was wondering how you were doing while she was away.

If that's the only thing that you forgot, you aren't doing to bad.
Sometimes I practically forget my own name.
