My MLK...Mercury in Retro Grade...

Well...You know those days where you were really just better off fulfilling your DH's vision of you on the couch watching the tube and eating bonbons all day...Yeah well that was this day for me...

Actually it has kind of been the last few weeks in general...It all started a few weeks back when I finally...at 25...decided to take responsibility for my dental health...Yes, horrible I know...but I did have the perfect excuse of two aunts in the dental field and one who was sweet enough to be (the not too regular) keeper of my teeth...So I was overdue to actually go to the dentist instead of meeting my Aunt after hours to get a quick cleaning and xrays...

I was a little nervous but also fully expecting the few cavities that I have been ignoring for the past year...It was a pleasant experience until I cried when this dentist came in and said that he was going to need to fill 14...Yes people I said 14...teeth, and He then proceeded to give me the full plan including costs...totaling around $4,000...

That was enough for a week, for sure...and so for MLK I was determined to be productive...I made an appointment to get a second opinion to go against that greedy bastard of a dentist...And thank God that it worked...Even though I was late for my appointment and got a speeding ticket on the way there from an officer that looked like he was 12 years old...literally

I chose to focus on my positive second opinion of 4 fillings rather than that of my damn ticket and to continue to try and make the most of this free day...So I proceeded to get the kids after my appointment and to have my Mom pick us up after taking my car in for a little overdue attention...It was going to be an hour so I packed up the kids in my Mom's car to kill some time running errands...And thats when it happened...

We were leaving toys r us and there wasn't a car or anything else in sight...I looked back to referee the kids in there sharing match...and BOOOM!!! Smack literally...smack in the center with my moms car...Into a light post...I still can not understand how, in a completely empty lot how I managed to hit this thing and so dead on too...

the next day...My boss told me that one of her schedule was changing and so thats that...I lost my job...

YEP...mercury is in retrograde...or for those of you not into astrology...MY last few weeks were full of unexpected suckyness(just life I guess really)!!! I will assure you though that I am on the up and up and things are a shifting and I am having faith and very easy at that...I know it could be alot worse...I am blessed!!!
