Blessed, Despite…

It has not been a banner day.

Then the evening rolled around… and the toilet handle broke off. In a household of six with only one bathroom, this is AN EVENT. While driving the brakes on my dear Stella the Suburban slipped, proving we have a safety and security issue that must be fixed before she’s drivable again, and finally I found out I couldn’t pick up a prescription for the kiddos because it was called into the wrong pharmacy and that particular pharmacy closed before I could get there.

Have a good night, now, ya’ hear?
