Loooong Day

It's been a looong day.  Today has been going on for twenty years. Or maybe even a little longer than that. It feels like it when your baby is crying and thrashing about and nothing makes her happy. It started when she decided to scream on the way home from taking Jenna to school this morning. She HATES to be back there by herself AFTER we drop Jenna off. When we are going to GET Jenna she is fine with it for the most part. This new routine started a few weeks ago and I find myself dreading the ride home without Jenna and listening to Ashley protest angrily. Mom said she is either mad we left Jenna somewhere and left her or mad that she didn't get to stay too! Knowing Ash the way I do, I think she wants to stay and be big too! Anyway, I just got her in her crib for a nap (over three hours late) and I am exhausted. I'm just done. Stick a fork in me. And Tim will be home late because guess what...He walked out to his car earlier and had a pancake for a tire! Now he has to deal with that after work. I'm sure by the time he deals with all of that he will be done too! Anyway, I am going to watch some TV with Jenna. And by watch, I mean through my eyelids, as in not at all. I can only stand Dora so many times...
