Terrorized Tuesday !!!

I so wish I could communicate this in person! It would be so much easier for me! I have had the craziest Tuesday morning in a looooonnnnngggg time and it is only 11:00 a.m. I'll try to be short and not so long winded.


I woke up at 2:15 AM this morning and laid in bed until 3:30. I got up at 3:30 and read in Psalms for 30 minutes and had a prayer time. Based on the events that transpired shortly after I should have prayed longer and read longer!! I started cleaning the kitchen around 4:15 and ran the dishwasher. I noticed under my sink was wet and I saw a grey hose and wondered "Hmmm what's this gray hose go to?" As I picked it up I discovered it was the dishwasher drain hose and it had become detached from the sink/garbage disposal thingy. I immediately shut off the dishwasher and mopped up the water and cleaned up under the sink. I decided to run the dishwasher. I had to get the water out of the bottom. I knew Bryan couldn't work on it until this afternoon and I didn't want the water to get stagnant and smelly. So I pulled out my big plastic bowl and big deep pots. I was going to listen for the drain cycle and catch the water. Weeellllll, I went into the office to clean it up and I missed the cycle. When I got back into the kitchen the entire space under my sink was wet, one pot was full, and water was standing in my kitchen!!!! I'm so stupid. I can't believe I didn't stay in there to listen so I could catch ALLLL the water!!! I had already mopped earlier that morning so I ended up mopping my kitchen yet again!!
Don't feel sorry for me yet....It gets better. I left the house a little early and stopped by America's Drive In.
I wanted to try a Cranberry Sprite. Melissa, my hair stylist, had one last night when she was coloring my hair and I've been wanting to try it. A good Sonic drink is bound to solve all the craziness, right. Well, almost. Does anyone know what this sign means?
When I left Sonic to get onto the interstate I was halfway down the side road when I realized I was going the wrong way!!!!! 3 cars passed me. I seriously considered pulling off the side of the road and parking!!! When I called Bryan he asked me if I saw the Do Not Enter sign and I said Yes. But honestly my very first thought was..."That's a weird place for the sign. I don't remember this road having a Do Not Enter sign!" I had to continue to drive on the far right. I just knew a police man was going to see me and pull me over for drunk driving!!! I'm sure I would have failed the test because I was tired!!!!!
Crazy Tuesday!!!!!!!!

Oh Julie, I hope your day got better. :) The closer we get to the Lord the more we can expect to happen to try to steal our Joy. Good for you having a quite time before you got started even if it was in the middle of the night.
Blessings,
Linda

Oh my goodness! I bet you have a really clean kitchen floor after mopping it twice! I'm sorry that you had such a hectic morning, but I am glad that the Lord protected you going the wrong way on that road. Hope you are having a wonderful evening!
