oh baby baby.

Well if you think yesterday was hard, today was like just funny. not really. but around 1:45 it just became ridiculously funny. i really dont know how i did it, but i got through.

so.
this morning i woke up to THE SAME bus that decides to rev its engine and honk its horn on the road outside my bed. anyways. i dragged myself out of bed but by the time i actually got down out of my bed i knew that today was going to be a very long and hard day. my hamstrings were tighter than they have ever been. and you know that i have tight hamstrings, but i mean, this was ri-dic-u-lous. and my back. oh man. my back is absolutely horrible right now. actually the upper left side of my entire body is in crazy amounts of pain. it feels like someone punched me. it feels so bruised. anyways. i pushed through taking a shower and putting on my clothes. then i proceeded to go down to the baby house. by stair 3 i was about to kill myself. and the rest of the morning went like that. lots of pain in my legs and back. ibuprofen didnt work and going up 108 stairs didnt either. go figure. anyways. around 145 i about this close to losing it. too much pain to bear. the kids had been so bad all morning. (Anna and Lizzy had been especially horrible. Lizzy decided she wanted to hit everyone today. lovely idea Lizzy. ) but J had just like exploded in her diaper. and i was this close to getting to go on break but i went and changed her anyways. how bad could it be really? ive changed these diapers many a time before, this is just another. hahaaaa. so. i go in the changing room, i take off her diaper. it stinks up the place like always (she already has a diaper rash or had an ant bite her bottom cause. yeahhh) anyways. i have the diaper off and so i go to reach for the wipe, but it turns out that there was none in the container. and then the diaper which is heavy with poop slides right off the table and onto the floor. me with my quick relexes jumpes back and missing getting poop all over my pants, which mind you were clean. yes. so now there is poop and a poopy diaper on the floor and there is still poop on J's bottom cause i havent been able to find the wipes!! so then i quickly find old not even wet wipes and while Karin (helper in the baby house) holds J's legs up i clean up the poop on the floor. which took much longer than i expected. back to locating wipes and holding J's legs up. aha! wipes located. thanks karin :) so then i finished wiping off J (and the floor. ew.) and go to throw the wipes away. of course all but the dirtiest ones make it into the trash can. the other one falls on the floor. its back to cleaning up poop from the floor! so while i have one hand on juliet and one had holding the trash can open, i clean up more poop! (dont ask how i did that. i must have an extra limb somewhere). so this has all happened in the space of about 3 minutes. thankfully J decided she didnt want to scream. THANK YOU BABY. so then i lather up her bottom with Desiten (i know you wanted to know that!) and grab a clean diaper and scoot her under it and pull the tab up to velcro it and of course! the tab snaps off! great. i now have a broken diaper. at this point i just turned to Rosita (a house mom) and we both laughed. how could i not? it was just a comedy of errors.

so i set the baby down in the play room, tiredly said goodbye to Leanette, and climbed up the 108 stairs again. hoping i make it to the top. i barely did. went on a desperate search for aleve. found some. took it. got a warm compress for my back and was out like a light. WHILE THE BAND WAS PRACTICING AGAIN. im getting good at this.

and that was my day. oh wait. before i fell asleep i realized that i didnt quite have the spider women reflexes as i thought i did. (apparently the buzzard thought i did though. dont ask.) anyways, i realized that i had poop on my pants. yes. on my pants. greeeeat.

and THAT was my day.

pray for much grace and strength tomorrow. ill be needing it.
