Ain't nobody got time for this

Yesterday when my son's father dropped him off in the morning I was in the shower.  The window/vent for the shower opens onto the back porch.  The boys dad decided to have a check in with me and carry on a conversation with me through the window.  Can we say awkward?   I mean, I know he couldn't see anything, but the idea of having a conversation with the man while I'm naked, on the other side of a wall, with an open window, trying to carry on a normal conversation is just weird.  Plain weird.  No offense, but he is one of the LAST people I want to have on my mind when I'm naked.  Seriously........the last.
Then I had a lot of other things go wrong, be very stressful throughout the day, hell, let's face it...it's been one hell of a week/month/year.

Fast forward to this morning.  I have papers which need the boys dad's signature.  It's very important it gets signed today.  Our case manager left it here so he could sign when he dropped off the boy this morning.  She was supposed to send out an email as a heads up to him, but life and her other clients got in the way.  I'm stepping out of the shower when I hear the boy walking up the walkway saying goodbye to dad.  In my head I'm saying "no no no no no no no no no no no no no!  You're early, no no no no no no no!  I'm naked!  No no no no no no no!  He's saying goodbye outside,  that means there was no email, he's not coming in! No no no no nononononononononononononono!!!!!"

So, being wet and naked (sorry for that, send me a bill for the hot poker- can't guarantee I can afford to reimburse you but I'll try....) I grab a towel, grab the papers and run down the road yelling my head off trying to get his attention.  No such luck, but I did get a few horrified looks from some of the drivers passing by.  Did I mention I live on a very busy road? Smh

So, in the house I trudge, dry off, dress, and go to make the coffee.  I turned the pot on only to realize 10 min later that I forgot one important ingredient.......water! Again- smh.  Seriously, ain't nobody got time for this......I'm ready for this week to be OVER!!!!!

I am so lucky as my grandparents used to say....
