Tuesday: Murphy's Day

Today I got up and going, I had packed lunch for today and put breakfast out on the counter, had the gym bag packed and was ready to go.

Work was hectic today, a run away girl, a kid got another in a head lock... hectic.

Off work and ready to go to the gym, and I realize I forgot my headphones. I know it doesn't seem like much, but I just couldn't go to the gym without them. I stopped by Target to get laundry soap for the billions of loads of laundry that is piling up on my bedroom floor. I think, well this is maybe a good turn of events, take a day break from running and not over do it getting back into the swing, and an opportunity to do laundry (I think I was on my last pair of socks).

I do the wash, put things in the two stacked driers and think to myself "Oh yay, they fixed the bottom dryer finally". I go back to get my dried clothes only to find that the bottom dryer clothes are still wet and cold. Crap. Put in another $1.25 and wait another hour for my clothes to be done...

I feel like as prepared as I tried to be today, things still went a little off course. But I put my head phones in my gym bag for tomorrow (instead of leaving them on the coffee table to forget in the morning rush), planned food for all three of tomorrow's meals, and did all my laundry (and now have socks for the gym).

Although today was not what I expected it to be, I am still pleased with how I worked around some 'issues' that came up. At least I didn't say "fuck it" and go to McDonald's because of how things were going (something I might have done last year).

Here is to being more prepared for Wednesday!
