The Title of My Future Autobiography: What Are the Odds?

This blog post is not about all the great hikes I've been on lately.

Nor is it about my interview about Mile High Mamas with Fox 31/Channel 2 on Tuesday.

It doesn't have much to do with the fact that the technology reporter contacted me 10 minutes before I had to drive Hadley to skating lessons. And wanted to interview me at my home immediately after her lesson.

Nor is it about how I dragged my ailing husband out of bed to help me maniacally clean the house and then raced off to Hadley's lesson.

What this blog post is about: that 15-minute window I had after her lesson to race home and do final primps and preps to the house before the reporter arrived.

And how I chose that day of all days to lose my keys at the rec center.

That is all.

It is too funny!! I hope you found them as soon as you realized you have lost them ;)

It all chooses to fall apart at the same time, doesn't it?

I had been carrying them around as I rushed to take Haddie's shoes off. Turns out, they broke off the key chain.

I had the actual chain but no keys. I eventually found them...but not after I called my Assistant Editor JoAnn to come get me.

Amber said...

Oh, and freaked out. A lot. :-)

I'll never know how you are able to be cool and collected no matter what is going on in the background.

And boy, do you have some backgrounds!

Amber said...

LOL--and believe me. Mere minutes before I was anything but cool and collected. :-)

Oh, the glamorous life you lead!

That one girl said...

Haha, I love you!

For future reference, it would be more efficient to speak in complete sentences, or at least whole words, when you call said Assistant Editor JoAnn to come get you at the rec center. ;)

But, it all worked out in the end, and you looked fabulous on camera.

Oh my gosh...and to think I thought you had it all together.
My image of you is shattered.
*wink*
So glad to hear you are just like the rest of us with too much on our plates.
And the interview...how did it go?

I swear, I wish I could call my keys the way I call my cell phone when I lose it. I've become an expert at pinpointing where the ringing comes from.

Amber said...

LOVE that idea!

Amber said...

P.S. Still recovering from the "have it all together" comment. :-)

Holy everything! So did you really miss it?
