mister internet! Please don’t leave me again, especially anytime soon! Ok I’m a dork, but hey I’ll be the first to admit it

It started storming last night, well early this morning and it was no surprise to me that I lost internet, TV and my phone (my phone is also through my cable company as well). It was late anyways so I needed to go to bed so maybe that was my cue it was time to hit the sack!

I had just fallen asleep when suddenly Caleb was crawling into bed with me. I thought he’d just fall back asleep - yeah right. For whatever reason he couldn’t sleep (poor kid is only 9 and already taking after me with the poor sleeping habits!) and tossed and turned and tossed and turned. Normally it wouldn’t bother me because that’s all I normally do but for once I was actually exhausted, tired and needed/wanted sleep! Every time I would start to doze off Caleb would say “mom” and start talking to me. UGH. When I want him to talk to me he doesn’t want to but when I want to sleep & he should be sleeping he wanted to talk. Kids. LOL. The last time I looked at the clock it was 4:41am I heard the slightest snore coming from Caleb and I was relieved that he had finally fallen back asleep. It didn’t take much for me to fall asleep either but the next thing I know the alarm clock was blaring in my ear. I remember hitting snooze, or so I thought I hit snooze but I didn’t wake up until a couple minutes after 8am and guess what time Caleb is supposed to be at school by? Yup, 8am!

We frantically rushed around the house getting him dressed, teeth brushed & then I made him breakfast to go (kind of defeats the purpose of just brushing his teeth but we had no choice this morning) of a couple slices of toast & an apple. Needless to say I drove kind of like a maniac because as long as I got him to the school by 8:20am I wouldn’t have to go sign him in. The reasoning for not wanting to get out of the car and go sign him in? Well hello I had just crawled out of bed and was in my PJ’s (and let’s just say my PJ’s consist of over sized mens flannel PJ pants - at least today they did - an over sized tshirt and no ummm… well no over the shoulder boulder holder), hair a mess (I didn’t even have time to pull it up into a ponytail), morning breath and just an all around mess. So I certainly was in no shape to get out of the car & go sign him in…that would of been like the walk of shame or something.

Anyways so that started my morning off on the not so right foot.

I was happy to see that my TV, phone and internet were all back up and running smoothly…or so I thought. Around 10:30 I lost internet connection, then the cable went out & I picked up my phone to try to call into Mom’s Morning Show and that too wasn’t working (why I thought it would work when the TV & Internet were out? I have no clue!). UGH! I had my day planned out with client projects. Not a good thing!

I checked periodically throughout the day for internet connection and much to my dismay every time I tried, it wasn’t here. Finally at about 2:30pm I walked past the computer and decided to check again and finally it worked! YEAH!

Isn’t it funny how much we miss our internet?

I didn’t care about my phone or TV being out but man was I was going crazy with no internet!!!! So now I’m back online and way behind schedule for the day which stresses me out and makes me a not so happy camper.

And this is just one more reason why I need a laptop! I could of went to the local coffee shop or somewhere that has wireless internet access and worked. Oh well.
