One day I was having my son help me with something on the computer and I completely forgot to pick up my daughter from grade one. A car pulled into the driveway and it was a friend bringing her home. Yikes. I set my watch alarm to ring daily at 2:20 after that!Rebecca S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16409572371302109142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5253987680038616859.post-80982357046396416082010-05-06T10:04:05.026-04:002010-05-06T10:04:05.026-04:00I've had those moments when I sit down in the ...I've had those moments when I sit down in the morning to blog or work or something and the next minute the sun is going down.Southpawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16539290964546504171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5253987680038616859.post-31569223891064705622010-05-05T21:34:50.021-04:002010-05-05T21:34:50.021-04:00How about an important off-site conference at work...How about an important off-site conference at work? We were all supposed to meet at the ferry terminal at some ungodly hour. My phone rang and I groggily picked it up. My colleague asked where I was. I had to ask who was calling and why (!). It turned out I'd totally forgotten that we had to go to Macau that day for a 3-day conference! I did manage to catch a later ferry somehow.Buckeroomamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02408502555249594576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5253987680038616859.post-76632619403550752162010-05-05T21:15:16.936-04:002010-05-05T21:15:16.936-04:00LOL Blogging can totally suck your time!

An away game resulting in a bus ride to/from for her gave me extra time, I thought, after the game to just stop by my house for a minute. Picked up the dog and drove to the high school. No bus in sight. Sitting on the curb in the front of the school was my daughter and two coaches, the only people on site. I could have died from embarrassment. I thought surely driving I'd be faster than the bus....I got lectured from the head coach about never being late again. LOL, the same coach did wind up liking me and my parenting and asked me to be team mom Sophomore year. Whew!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
