I mean nothing so bad as to be dramatic but one of those days where you wish you hadn't bothered getting out of bed. It started with dh's alarm going off at 5.10am (normal for him) but instead of turning it off he managed to press buzzer which them woke up my one year old who promptly cried waking up my 3 year old who then physically decided to wake up my 7 year old for the shear hell of it! Did he appologise???? Do he bloody didn't. Get to school.... late, get home with tired 1 year old who refuses point blank to go to sleep without me next to him. This is a new phase that has only been around for approx 2 days but not good. We then try a mixture of methods to get him off resulting in him screaming for 2 hours, me getting frustrated and dd2 also crying. Then I go to my dentist appointment - a temporary root canal filling fell out Friday night and but today I'm in loads of pain where obviously an infection has got in. They clean it out, inject antib's into it and take a picture (all without numbing me up so am now in a lot of pain and close to tears whilst ds merely glares at me with his thumb in his mouth from his buggy). The picture reveals loads of swelling, the surprise is that the swelling is also under another tooth that has previously been root canaled 4 times (don't ask) so she announces that they didn't do a good enough job and that she got to now take the cap off and re-root canal it! I ask her if she simply doesn't like me. Being Hungarian she doesn't understand my attempt at humour and explains in an Oh so patient voice that its "nothing personal" etc. Feel about 1 cm big. Wander home feeling VERY sorry for myself and take some painkillers. DS refuses to eat dinner! Am also trying desperately hard to put parcels together to post as I have to return something today or pay a big big big fine. DD2 also refuses to eat but manages to raid the fridge and stock up on baby bells and raspberries that I'd bought myself as a dieting treat! Temp fill half falls out! Phone dentist and get told to wait until it all falls out! Now rush around trying to find video borrowed from the libary because its due back today. Can I find it, absolutely not! The problem is that I'm also suffering from an inner ear infection so I have no sense of balance and all the rushing around has made me very very sick so get rid of breakfast down the toilet. Finally make it to the soft play area that I promised dd2 that morning. ds1 continues to grizzle and throws his food everywhere much to the disapproval of all around me. next pickup dd1 from school and rush to the post office before swimming. Leave kids in car because surely this will only take 1 minute. long queue. At this point I should have bailed out but didn't as was certain it would take long. By the time I get back to the car all 3 kids crying and feel like really really shitty mum. So off to swimming (uneventful). Then on to the chemist to get antibs. Dd1 asks to be left in car. Since I can see it I agree. Get drugs, get back to the car to find that my dd1 has tied her leg to the seat belt which I have to break to get her out. Back home for a very quick snack before walking kids to dd1's brownies, then back home to wash dd2's hair. Am washing ds1 in the bath when dd2 wanders in looking extremely pleased with herself and informs me that she's accidently cut her hair with some scissors! Jeeze - her fringe is now approx 1 cm long and one side is about 3cm long. Am completely furious.
Now have a very very large GandT and sod it if the antibs say no alchol!
Ultimately my family is ok (although really I should be a tad careful as dd1 and dh haven't got home yet but really there are some days where it would be better to stay in bed with the curtains drawn
