I just woke up at 5:00 a.m. this morning to find my husband's bid sheets in shreds. The dog ate many of the pages. He needs them to make money.
This is a first for her. We adopted her and she has been with us for 8 months.
Does anyone have any great WTH morning stories to share?
I sat in the Kumon waiting room reading the responses and quietly giggling. Came home and shared a few with my husband and he got a good laugh too.
As it turned out, his most important page was on the bottom of the stack. It was a printed report, but his hand written notes were on one specific page.
Thanks for the laughs (on some)!
One time when my oldest was 2, we both woke up and went to the kitchen. I opened the fridge and he saw a whole pitcher of green KoolAid and promptly grabbed it and drug it off the shelf.
It hit the floor before I could catch it. :(
At 7:00 in the morning I was cleaning and mopping KoolAid from under and behind the fridge.
Flat tire on the way to work.
Last week, I opened the daycare door to head down with the first child and parent in the morning and my cat ran up the stairs and out of the daycare. He's gotten himself locked down their for the night quite often, but this time the smell of cat poo hit me about two seconds after he flew past me. I cleaned it up easily and sprayed the whole daycare, but the smell still lingered a bit and I had a new client starting that morning and an interview with a potential client scheduled also, of course.
Nothing like the smell of cat poo in the morning. (Channeling Apocalypse Now)
well...about 3 months ago now, I went downstairs (in my usual morning fog) to start my coffee and let the dog out.I went around the island quickly, and slid on dog poo, slamming into a wall breaking my big toe!
This was the first time in YEARS he'd had an accident. I assure you that not having had coffee and having 'slid' through the dog poo was NOT a great way to wake up.
Three months later, my big toe still is swollen, and I had to buy WIDE shoes a half size bigger for an event tomorrow night.
Hope your hubby can re do (re print?) the bid sheets!
Hopefully he has these sheets saved and backup on his computer. That really sucks.
I don't have any bad wake up moments. Once when I was cleaning up the dinner table our Cocker (about 5 at the time) managed to get on the table without my knowledge, ate ALL of the leftover roast beef, a stick of butter and the bowl of sugar. We spent a couple hundred bucks to make sure she was ok and from that point on, we ALWAYS made sure chairs were pushed back in properly.
Another time, she ate the Easter candy I made that was wrapped in saran. Per the Dr., I had to make her throw up and I was with her all night in the bathroom as she got rid of everything in her stomach.
We've always had dogs and that had never happened before. We do have a habit now of making sure chairs are in properly. That was one of the best roasts I had ever made and it was going to be dinner the following night!!
Ugh, been there with the dog chewing up work papers. Ours developed sudden anxiety when we were gone and went straight for my desk and ate a bunch of my critical work papers. She had been fine for a year with no incidents at all, but then after this one, continued to find paper to chew and it became an ongoing problem. She's now back in her crate when we leave the house and seems a lot happier that way.
Anyway, our most notorious early morning wake up was after my husband took our son (around 5 years old) to the movies the night before. It was the first time our son had an Icee and apparently it was a huge one. Walked into our son's room and he was projectile vomiting red Icee and popcorn everywhere! It was all over the walls, bedding, carpet, you name it. Like out of a horror movie.
NOT a good way to start the day.
My 4yo daughter had a rough night the night before last, so I decided to let her sleep in bed with me.
She has not had an accident in nearly a year now, and she sleeps in my bed fairly often. I had her go potty in the toilet before tucking her in with me.
Yet I woke up in a GIANT puddle- as in my pajamas were wet, she was completely soaked, and three pillows got some. So I got to scrub my mattress, do a complete bedding change, throw the pillows in the washer, and take a quick shower with my daughter all at 4 in the morning. (Just changing her wasn't an option- she was nasty. Lol.)
Guess who didn't want to go back to sleep after all that? So I broke my resolution to stop letting her watch cartoons in the morning so I could get some sleep. (I forgot to mention that I had been up late up cycling some shirts into dresses for her, so at that point was tuning on about 3 hours of sleep.)
bad dog!
nothing dramatic here, just a mostly sleepless night in my SIL's (very nice) spare room. my dh and MIL are out of town for a desperately sad family funeral (21 year old nephew, just heartbreaking), and my FIL isn't up to the 12 hour drive so after i do all the critters here i'm sleeping there, just in case.
i hate not being at home, and without my dh.

Ugh. That's worse but not all that long ago I woke up to our dog's diarreah all over the carpet upstairs. We've had him for years and typically no problems. He was in a fairly small area bc of the way doors are set up and carpet is old but he picked to go in my husband's closet and my husband already doesn't like having a dog... I get up first always, this time find it and have to frantically try to clean before my husband gets up. It needed deep cleaning but I just wanted to make it not look SO bad. Get the dog out of course and also make it to work on time. There was so much and it was so gross!
Actually it was yesterday, but still losing my mind over this. We found a garden snake outside and my husband tried to grab it to toss to the woods, he decided the inside of a partition to the wall was a good place. Hubby tried to stop him while I went and got something to detour him. My husband said he was really strong. Snake that is. We watched him escape (oh please don't let him be in the house). Yesterday I went out and the snake was right there again learing at me. REALLY. I grabbed a broom, thinking I could escort him away (all by myself waaa) and he smiled REALLY and went back into the partition. UGH I hope I don't look down and see it while I am typing.
I'm so sorry about your husband's work. Dogs get weird about some things. I'd say "well, that's why I'm a cat person", but I've woken up to puddles of kitty-puke, which is also horrifying.
My morning stinks. Lady troubles. Won't TMI you, but I'm just disgusted with being a woman right now. Everything hurts. My son has no social life today because even happy sounds will set me on edge, poor kiddo. This only happens once in a blue moon any more, but when it happens! Oi!
My tablet is not working properly!! I can't attach documents to e-mails, it just sits there... so now I'm off to the Verizon store to have them figure out what's going on as I spent 1 hour and 11 minutes on hold waiting for someone from technical services to come on and help me...
That really sucks. I hope your husband has a back up!!!
My husband wants to refinance our house. We bought our house less than a year ago, and because we are self-employed, getting this mortgage in the first place was HELL. I'm getting an eye twitch even thinking about it. Anyway, the mortgage guy just sent me the list of documents I need to sign and/or locate and send to him. I am just dreading this process. Ugggggh. I mean, at least this time we aren't in escrow, so there's no big drama that's going to happen if the refinance doesn't work out, I guess. Still. I Just. Don't. Want. To.
Woke up with the mother of all menstrual cramps.
We allowed a neighbor kid to stay over last night with our 3 kids. My husband came into our room after he got ready for work and announced that our two older girls were asleep, but that neighbor friend and my 6 yr. old son were up ALL NIGHT watching MineCraft videos on Youtube and had not been to sleep at ALL.
Yay. Going to be a fun day with the little man today! Ugh. (not to mention restriction).
