What next.......?

You know that old catch phrase, when it rains it pours? Well it does. Amazingly though, I have come through it all with only a modicum of a bad attitude. Monday started off like any Monday, that is bad enough in itself right? There were some issues at work that I had to spend all day fixing and it was just annoying.

Then, on Tuesday, I get a phone call that my mother is driving herself to the hospital for what turned out to be appendicitis. They were going to "fit" her surgery in so I had no time frame of which to use to take time off of work. I was also working my second job that night so I had to figure something out there. Then I found out that a friend who is fighting cancer was not doing well and stopped breathing and was put back in ICU.  Great drama day.

As I was leaving the hospital to go home and get a few things for the mother, my car started acting funny and now my car needs to go into the shop (SERIOUSLY better not be anything expensive :(). So that happens, I have to leave for my other job and then not get home till midnight, finally fall asleep just after one to have to get up at 6:00 (after working all day and night 6 hours of which was on my feet) to go check on the hospital patient.

I leave work early and pick her up, take her home and then work from home to monitor her. I HATE working from home. To distracted, slow connection, can't print etc. Even though the mom was doing well and it seemed like things might settle down, I then find out an old colleague was murdered early that morning, and that my friend in the hospital with cancer really wasn't doing well and may not recover.

After a good cry I finally slept, to have to face another day and wonder what lies in store for me in the not so subtle drama department....please let it not be anything.
