About to cry - one of those days

Ugh. Getting my oldest up and ready for school was like pulling a mule along this morning. DD#2 is cranky and obstinate. But the biggie is my brand new cell phone is trashed.

It must have fallen out of my purse into the driveway last night and either DH or I ran over it. It still comes on the but the display looks like some psychedelic picture. Waaaahhhhh!!!!!! I just got the darn thing last week!

I know there are people with bigger things going on, but this piddly stuff just ticks me off.

Its the small stuff that piles up driving us mad, I totally understand. I am sorry about your phone. Maybe the company will replace it? Can't hurt to find out.

big hugs that tomorrow morning will be easier to get her off to school too!

This is just what worked for me, but maybe you could try it. When my kids were little, I just kept making their bedtime 15 minutes earlier until they got up pretty much on their own. Kids need a lot of sleep sometimes, especially during a growth spurt. So about every 3 days I pushed the bedtime earlier, until it worked. Even my high school ds gets so tired, and just has to give it up and go to bed really early sometimes.
Sorry about your phone, that is maddening.
