Last night while we were searching the house for library books to return (We're still missing two.), Josh, J, and G went out to look for some in the van. Unfortunately they forgot to turn off the van light, so it drained the battery. Before leaving for a conference this morning, Josh realized the van's battery was dead, so he told me that he hooked up the battery charger. I figured it would be charged by the time the kids and I would be ready to leave. WRONG!!! It's now 10:30 am, and the battery is just now finally juiced up! ARGH!
Even more frustrating is that, due to other things on our schedule, I won't be able to go out and get groceries or get to the library til Saturday afternoon. Okay, maybe it's not that big of a deal, and I should probably calm down and just let it go, but one of the movies we got from the library is due today, and I can't renew it because it's on hold for someone else so we're going to have to pay a fine, I have library books on hold that I wanted to pick up and some things at the store I wanted to get today, too. I'm just frustrated! I do feel a bit better though, now that I've vented.
Venting is good. Library fine, bad. Ugh.
ReplyDeleteLet it all out--we've all been there! Hoping your day has improved!!
ReplyDeleteThat would be frustrating. I do not miss having lost library books. I think we self-funded the whole library with our overdue fines.
ReplyDeleteHUGS!! I know how I get when my routine gets thrown off...it's not good! Hope today is better! Oh, and our library charges .75/day for videos & dvds and if we have 4 our and miss returning them and a weekend gets in there...OUCH!!! But then I try to say to myself that it's for a good cause! lol
