My baby, bless her little heart. She woke to a bad dream this morning. The sun had glowing red eyes and they turned really hot and killed all the peoples in the world. Invader Zim was playing on her tv too, so I tried to explain to her that her little bitty baby brain had somehow picked up on the theme playing on the tv while she slept but she wasn't tryin to hear that mess.
And of course she missed the bus because it was already 7:47 when her dear momma saved her from the bad dreams, being unable save herself from the dreaded snooze button. I keep oversleeping and it's pissing me off. She didn't miss breakfast, or need a note as far as I know, but she was late nonetheless. I try really hard not to have them late for school. I feel like a Charmaine when i do, even though I have yet to reach her levels of tardiness for kids.
So I drop off the girls, Muffin after Nonna of course because Nonna needs to be there BY a certain time. And I start down the hill towards town to get my morning coffee from the Spirit station and what do I see? A big white sign outside the Mercantile that says WIC Today! Well shit. I remembered last night there was WIC this morning, but I forgot that just like I forget to get my ass up when the alarm goes off. So I call the school and tell them I gotta come get Muffin again so they can do her height and weight, fly home to grab my purse and pull my hair up (I dropped them off lookin like who dunnit and what for) and go back to get the baby.
Shout out to the staff. They had her ready to go with me and had even packed her a little breakfast for the road. We made it to WIC by our scheduled appointment time, so at least I'm 1-1 this morning. I got my vouchers, she ate her eggs and toast like a little beast, and we went back to school. Now I got my coffee finally and I can maybe wake up. Here's hopin.
