Just horrible....

Top 10 things I learned today:
1-the distance from the Grand Prairie Post Office to my home is 1.57 miles. I know b/c the girls and I walked it today...not for fun.
2-A car that is 10 years old with 120,000 miles on it will more than likely break down at random times....like today.
3-Strangers do not like to help women with small children jump start their car.
4-I need to keep a phone list in my wallet of all my friends numbers, so that when my cell phone is lost and I am stranded at a payphone, I can call for help.
5-Aubree likes to throw things in the trash, which is where I found said lost cell phone after walking 1.57 miles carrying a 25lb baby and holding a toddler's hand.
6-Toddler's can't walk in straight lines.
7-Im obsessed with my blog, as I was walking all I could think about was "how should I tell this in my blog". Nice...
8-Cellphones are important, I used to think I could live without them, but now I know that's just ridiculous.
9-Toddler's will accept cookies as bribery for walking "10 more steps"
10-I am out of shape, but thats ok....walking isnt that fun.

I hope your day was better than mine! Thank goodness it's over and I'm asking Santa for a new car!!!

I feel SOO bad that all I did today was sit at home! That is such a good idea about keeping numbers in your purse! I honestly don't know anyones number either! Silver lining to your cloud: you guys got some awesome excercise today!

Oh, Sarah, I'm so sorry! And of course the day you don't have a stroller in the car or a cell phone or spare numbers... I know this is annoying but my Mom used to do it to me, At least: This didn't happen on your way to MN and it didn't happen in the middle of the summer! Also, if Santa brings you a new car, please give me the number you used, I could use one too!Ü

Oh my gosh I am so sorry you had a bad day too. Bad days stink. Luckily my car worked today! I would have helped you!! You need an awesome bubble bath too. Can you give yourself a massage? J/K. Hope tomorrow is better and you get a rad new haircut!!!

Ashley said...

Where did you find a payphone? And I do the same thing with my blog, always thinking of new post ideas. My post today qualified as a book. Too long, but I am not deleting it, it's staying.

I'm sorry about your bad day, Sarah. Please write our numbers down, because I am just phone call away if it ever happens again. And your list was so funny. We're ALL obsessed with our blogs, don't you know?

That stinks!!! All you have to do is learn how to drive a stick and you can have your new car;) You can stick James back in the old one. I hope your day is better tomorrow.

Simply Sarah *K* said...

LOL....thats so true Krista...of course, I would get stalled in the new car and freak out then too!
I found a couple payphones....two that didnt work outside of a Kroger and a Subway, then finally one outside of a gas station worked...i dont recommend using :) cause they smell and make your ear itch!!!

Simply Sarah *K* said...

Big G said...

I don't know if it's that I am awesome or if I really just don't have a lifeÜ

Jennifer said...

Jennifer said...

Ohhh, that stinks! I feel for you. My car is a big old Pile of crap. It broke down on me at a store putting it into reverse but I luckily started it back up. It to has one to many million miles on it. If I leave the house now and realize my cell isn't with me I turn around and go back. I can't be without it, we so depend on them. Hope you don't have another day like that. P.S. My stroller broke on Halloween, one of the wheels popped off and I had to juggle all these things back home! Ekkk!
