Work Induced Dementia...

As many of you know, I work with adults. Most of them are senior adults. Therefore, it stands to reason that dementia could be contagious. I have been spoiled this week of getting to sleep a little bit late since the kids didn't have to go to school. So this morning, I am so asleep. I mean one of those where you did not even wake up in the middle of the night to pee. Stephen kept trying to wake me up. "honey you have to get up...honey it is 6:30, honey you are going to be late for work." I finally roll over, look him dead in the eyes with a straight face and yell, " it is Saturday morning." I have never seen the look he gave me. We have been together nine years, and I have never seen this look. I said, "what" He informs me it is not Saturday nor is it Friday, but Thursday. This really started my day off bad. So I come to terms with the fact not only do I have to get up and go to work, but I have to get up and go to work tomorrow. I find some clothes, they were pretty clean, and begin the process of making this face and body presentable. Okay so I get dressed, go get my cup of coffee to go. As I am getting into the car, I put my coffee mug on top of the car. Yep, you guessed it, Blue River Drive, the road that runs in front of my parents' house has coffee and bits and pieces of my mug all over it. This is real good sign that I need to go back to bed. I do make it to work in one piece. Not really sure how this happened. I did make it through the day without any further major catastrophes. We will try again tomorrow!
