There was nothing particularly special about this Wednesday morning.
Our alarm sounded at 4:35am as it usually does. I turned and kissed my Husband, and stretched a bit before getting out of bed. Routinely, I slipped into my workout clothes, splashed cold water on my face and ran the toothbrush across my tongue. Robotically, I grabbed my gym bag and purse, peeked in my daughters room, and poured my coffee, as I told my hubby that I loved him. I then grabbed my keys, kissed the cat, and headed out the door.
There was nothing particularly special about this Wednesday morning as I breathed in the marine layer and entered my car. I chomped on my daily morning apple and listened to the antics of Bill Handle and the morning crew on KFI am as I drove to the gym, as usual.
Yep, there wasnt anything particularly different this morning when I entered Ballys and greeted Raul at the front desk. On queue I waved to a few people I regularly see, and headed for the locker room. Again, there was nothing special about this morning when I stepped unto an unoccupied elliptical machine, as usual.
After my workout and while in the shower, I smiled at the thought of this easy before a Holiday workday at the office and at tomorrow being Thanksgiving. The thought of Fridays shopping, and Saturdays Christmas decorating widened my grin.
Nothing appeared atypical as I opened the gym locker and proceeded to dress for the day.
It was a typical weekday morning until to my horror, I realized that for the first time ever I forgot to pack a blouse. Good grief!
The gym is 5 minutes from the office and 30 minutes from home. Since I would be leaving the office early this afternoon, I didnt want to call in late and have to deal with the Dragon Lady that is my supervisor. Out of the norm for a typical workday morning, I drove around frantically hoping that at 6:50am I would encounter a store already observing Holiday hours. I needed to buy a blouse or sweater, or a dress, or a blazer something!!!!
No luck. Target was closed. Ross was also closed, as was Sears.
So here I sit at my desk in a pair of slacks and high heels and a icky sticky Def Leppard concert t-shirt that I sweated in for 45 minutes this morning.
I also need to alleviate myself from this mornings 5 cups of coffee but 1- Im embarrassed to walk over to the ladies lounge in this interesting ensemble, and B- Ive waited much too long to visit the lounge that Im not even sure that I can walk upright.
I hope everyones having a better Wednesday morning that I am .:shame:
