A weird anniversary.....

So all my planning for our 12th Anniversary went out the window.
The original agenda looked like this:

Saturday

• 7 AM Run with the girls
• 8 AM Shower, load last minute items for party
• 9 AM Leave to get Matthew's Birthday party set-up
• 10 - 12 Celebrate Matthew's Birthday with his buddies
• 1 PM Home, decompress, shower, get boys down for naps
• 2:45 PM Sitter arrives
• 3:30 PM Couples massage scheduled at Terrame
• 5:30 PM Dinner reservations at D&L Bistro
  

What actually transpired...

• 7 AM Run with the girls
• 8 AM Sitter calls to tell us she has stomach flu
• 8 AM Try desperately to find an alternate sitter
  
• 8:30 AM Load last minute items for party
• 9:30 AM Leave to get Matthew's Birthday party set-up
• 10 - 12 Celebrate Matthew's Birthday with his buddies
• 12 PM Learn that they make a SHOT for the Poison Ivy Will has been fighting for a week.
• 1 PM Home, unload, assemble toys, get boys down for naps
• 2 PM Willie leaves for the doc-in-a-box to attempt to get a shot.
• 3 PM Willie is still waiting
• 4 PM Willie still waiting, me a MUCH NEEDED SHOWER after a nearly 4 mile run and a birthday party in 100 degree heat, boys get up.
  
• 5 PM Willie is out of the waiting room but still no doc
• 5:25 PM The first doctor comes in and immediately goes and gets a more senior doctor to witness this apparantly severe case of poison ivy. SHOT ADMINISTERED......finally.
• 6 PM We eat leftover party pizza and cupcakes and are thankful for all that we have....especially the poison ivy shot!!
  

Thankfully, I called on Friday morning and canceled the massages since I figure the massage therapist would want nothing to do with massaging my husbands oozing rash.

There's always next year right?
