This usually helps a whole lot and each little thing that makes this morning go smoothly, I'll take.
Even still, those mornings are sometimes a whirlwind. Of course, they are soooo worth it. Recently, we were 'getting out the door' in our usual Sunday morning madness. And I did something I typically do, grabbed a hot cup of Starbucks in my favorite ceramic mug and headed out the door with my purse, and maybe a couple of other things.
Somehow between me being the last out the door and closing the door and stepping down the few steps into the garage, I managed to pour almost an entire mug of coffee on ... me!
Yes, you've got it. Could I do anything but laugh! I mean really, I did not fall, or even drop and break my favorite mug.
You can imagine Mountain Man's surprise when he saw coffee swirling! Immediately, I thought I'll need a quick shower, new clothes and of course, another cup of coffee. This would require me taking a second car and missing some of our 'together' activities. I could tell Mountain Man was bummed.
So I took stock and realized that it was only my shirt that was laden and my coat and scarf. Well, quite a list, my hair was glistening with Hazelnut Coffee. Mountain Man really wanted us to be 'together.'
Quickly, I realized I can do this. Who says I am high maintenance! So I ran inside put on a fresh clean turtleneck sweater (after all I had to make up for my favorite coat and scarf being wet with coffee) I think I grabbed a light layer and another scarf looked in the mirror and scrunched my hair a little.
Thinking to myself, Hazelnut really does smell quite nice.....
And that was it, we were off to Church and we m.a.d.e it on time! I was laughing most of the morning at my new perfume scent and even confessed to a couple of girlfriends as we did our usual "hug-hello!"
No,Not me! I did not go anywhere with Hazelnut 'mouse' in my hair! Now, will you share your No,Not me! Have a great day!
Warmly,

I laughed and laughed - thanks for the pick-me-up!
You did a whole lot better than me! I probably would have reacted terribly. It is awesome that you had a great attitude about it.
Well, at least it smelled good!
