Here is how mine went...
This morning was going along quite nicely. We were all up, fed, dressed and ready to go without to much fuss. Little one was safely delivered to the nursery for the morning and I was dropped off to do my workout.
Then the unraveling started ever so slowly.
First we start with the ever so chatty woman who really does believe that I can hold a full conversation while holding my stance in a side plank on a large vibrating machine for a full minute on each side. NOT!
I decide not to tan as I'd rather just make a hasty retreat (I don't normally go in on Wednesday mornings and anyone who knows me knows I am not a morning person to begin with.)
On to pick up a few bits of last minute Christmas shopping. Easy enough there is some sets on sale at the chemist. Pick out two for the adults and for the freebie pick out some lip stuff for the minx. Pay, and leave store.
All done YAY! Easy peasy and off home we go or so I thought. Yes the unraveling is hitting high gear behind the scenes and that mischievous sprite Puck has decided this is the morning to show off.
So I stop briefly to put on my sunglasses and in horror I watch as slowly the bag in my hand tips and slides and starts to fall. Frantically trying to catch the bag while still holding onto everything else I resort to doing this wild grabbing motion. I missed! I promptly hear this god awful crunch-shatter noise as it hits the pavement.
Well now, briefly being possessed by the soul of a sailor, I let out a stream of words that no one should be in ear shot of. I bend to pick up said bag thinking I had not been heard me when I hear a stifled giggle. Turning to look behind me I see a small dainty little lady with slightly purple hair hiding giggles behind her hand. I turned about 12 shades of different red and apologized quickly for my language. Of which I received the biggest smile flashed at me and was told 'From the sound when it hit, I think it was well warranted'!
I wished her a Merry Christmas walked over to the ATM, went over to the market and bought soft shawls for the two gifts. Damned if I'm buying anything else breakable today.
Anyway enough waffling from me today I'm going to go and chance rearranging more of the house and baking. If anyone sees Puck hanging about catch him for me and we'll let the minx hang him on the very spiky hedge outside. Maybe that would teach him a lesson.

So how is yours going?
Happy hump day to you all and may your morning be a little smoother than mine.
