bad day. It's been really quiet in the office and it's been making me very nervous because too much calm before the storm is never a good thing. Well the storm hit high gear this morning and continued through the day. When a day starts off bad at 9:01 you know you have trouble. I forgot to cancel a client's appointment and at 10AM there she is. Fortunately she is a very sweet lady and understood but that made me feel real bad because she is such a sweet lady. By 10:15 my head was pounding and the day had barely begun. By the time I got home and managed to get dinner on the table I managed to break the crisper drawer on my refrigerator fishing out a bag of baby spinach when a wayward jar of pickles came crashing to the floor and the best part was I forgot to put the spinach in what I was cooking but that didn't matter because I threw all the cooking water down the drain even though I had just removed the measuring cup from the cabinet to remind myself to reserve the water. I then realized we had received a check in the mail from the title company from our refinance and couldn't quite figure out what I had done with it and realized maybe I should check the garbarge and there it was sitting in there with all the garbage-fortunately I hadn't ripped it up and it wasn't touching anything nasty.

I'm going to go walk the dog now and hopefully the dog and I will return home in one piece and hopefully if I forget the way home Otto can lead the way!

Susan - Smiling wryly at this post. What a day you had! But there are a couple of positives in it:

1) The lady was (and is) very nice

2) The broken pickle jar didn't cut you (or are you not telling us something?)

3) The refi check was safe

4) You have a smart dog

Hope tomorrow is better for you. I'm trying to think of a way to smoke out the light-fingered food thief, but I'm not eating chocolate so the Ex-Lax trick won't do. But I love the concept....
