A Series of Unfortunate Events
Well, I had one of those days where bad things keep happening yesterday. I woke up around 7:30, and Dad told me that I was going to go to my Grandparent's house to help them clean up their yard (several branches had blown down from the trees in their yard during a storm). Mom told me to bring an essay that I was supposed to give to my Grandma. Unfortunately, I forgot it. Now, I have a deadline to give this essay to her. Fortunately, I still have a chance to get it back to her, since she's coming to our house in a few days. When I got home from my Grandma's, I found that I had left a permanent marker in my jeans pocket, and it had gone through the dryer, painting the inside of our dryer a lovely black, and ruining one of my two pairs of blue jeans, my only pair of Sunday pants, one of my cotton button-up shirts, a polo shirt, and a brand-new long sleeved cotton button-up shirt. I also ruined one of my brother's Sunday shirts.
Then, that evening, I went to a Homeschool meeting, and left one of my important books there by mistake. Unfortunately it's a very important book. Hopefully I'll get it back in three weeks, or so... :-(
Well, that's my unfortunate day. Hopefully the rest of today will be a little better...
