Broken

It’s going to be one of those days. I just know it. It just started crappy.

Everything is broken. Let’s start the day with Carolynn’s alarm clock. She insisted that she set it and it was working when she went to bed. Of course, when she woke up at 7:15 this morning, long after she should have left for school, she isn’t so sure.

It wasn’t a huge deal though because she had a doctor’s appointment. Last Friday she fell and hurt her wrist. She said she was fine. The nurse at school taped her wrist up. I called the doctor on Friday and they advised me to bring her if it got worse. Well, turns out, it may have been worse than she let on. If you will check out Carolynn’s blog, you might see that Carolynn had quite the exciting weekend. She wouldn’t have wanted to miss that for something as trivial as a broken wrist. This morning she saw a doctor and got an x-ray. We will know for sure what the deal is tomorrow. If it is a break, it is minor, but it is more likely a sprain. Either way the treatment is the same, only the length of treatment differs. She still insisted she needed to go to school after all that. If I had a possible broken wrist, I would have skipped school.

On the way to the doctor’s office, I got a flat tire. It just blew out about 3 miles from here. David came quickly and we traded vehicles. David changed my tire and I took his truck to the doctor. He came to the doctor’s office a short time later and we traded back. I got four new tires just about 2 years ago. I wonder how long tires are supposed to last. Tires for my car are expensive because I have some kind of fancy rim size or something.

Well, today WILL get better. I know it. Yep. Better already. Except I have to go to work later. But technically that will be tomorrow.
