Days Off??

...Arent they supposed to be to allow you to be lazy or have nothing to do?? Well typically they are, but this week, oh no had to run around like a chicken with my head cut off!! Lets see, started out good, I slept in, something I rarely do, and I should stop because when I get to much sleep I find the rest of my day sucks, I tend to be cranky, because I am too tired....so fine, was going to get up go get the hockey tickets for the eagles game and than go to the mall and get a few things for work. So I live with my Grandmother and my Mom had come by to visit...well my Grandmother has been sick, so since she lives the closest (same street..LOL) she comes by all the time. We were talking and she asked me to put a payment on her layaway....gotta love Walmart....so I was like"yeah Ok, np" next thing I know my Grandmother is pulling out the check book to give my Mom some money for her bday...I knew what was coming next, "Will you go get my layaway"...so there it went, and of course I cannot say No to my Mom. Wondering what the layaway was?? A TREADMILL....lol..so I thought that wouldnt be too bad. I knew that would not fit in my Car, I drive a 99 Pontiac Sunfire...2 Door at that....lol...so I did my business, got my tickets for the game...GO EAGLES GO...went to the mall, got my bristol board for work and here comes time to get the treadmill out...I argued with my mother and told her that it would not fit in my car, and boy was I right...no way that would go in my car. So I had to go to my mother's work and get her car to pick it up. What happened, is I went to pull the back seats down in my mother's car...ya the only way to do that was lay in the trunk and pull myself all the way in to click these two fucking clips at the same time to push the seat back...ya kinda hard, when half your body is in the car and the other half is dangling out...as my mother was laughing at me, I got a little stressed...but eventually the seats went down and I was on my merry little way....all this time I was with a friend of mine...Olga..and what could she do, but laugh too, but oh well the worst part is over right??? Maybe...LOL...got back to Walmart, got the f'n treadmill and they guy says, "No Way that is going in there"..I almost strangled him, I told him he was getting that in there or else I was taking it out of the box...but what he meant is part will hang out of the car! I dont care, I live 15 min if that from the mall, shove the fucker in...so we put it in, figured out needed some rope to tie the trunk down....now I love walmart and I used to go everyday..so I ran in to get some rope..took me forever, I felt like a mouse running around a maze trying to get the rope...finally I found it, tied the trunk down and travelled on my way home...that was the worst of it, everything ran smooth on the drive home and getting it into the house..later on I set it up, looks great! Just like the one I use at the gym. I was putting it together and my Sister was supposed to help me, but she was having a crisis, eventually after me yelling at her, she came to help me, and SUCCESS!! We set it up...after all that, now I need is batteries, for the screen!! So hopefully after all this everyone will use it, because it is a great piece of equipment...well that was yesterday, lets see how things go today...I am at work....
