my oh my..

happy easter everyone!
so the kids all went to their dads this morning, so i have no kids for a few days.
with nothing to do all day, i watched greys anatomy and had a little sleep, and that is what my day consisted of, untillll i had to go get some grocerys..
holey moley. did i get lost.
at about 7ish i left the house and i didn't get back until around 8:30.
thats how long it took.
now its not far from here to stop and shop but i kept getting lost, like i seriously had to pull into a carpark to stop the car and refocus.
first of all i thought i was headed in the wrong direction to start with, but then realised i wasn't and kept driving. then i drove past the stop and shop complex and didn't realise until i drove past an extremely unfamiliar lake thing.. so i turned around and went back, driving past stop and shop again.
so i eventually found and went to the complex that i swore it was in and was about to call someone and ask for help when i realised that the shop was actually tucked up around the corner out of sight on the other side of allll the other shops. like i have been there before, you wouldn't think it would be that hard really.
so after i get the grocerys, which included head and shoulders because turns out this cold weather is making all of my skin dry, including my scalp, resulting in dandruff.. gross, i never ever never get dandruff. not happy jan, i got some dvds from the $1 vending machine and then tried to figure out exactly which way i came from. eenie meenie minee moe did not help.. i chose wrong and had to turn around for possibley the tenth time on this tiny little trip.
then i was stressed so i pulled into dunkin' donuts to get an iced coffee, which at the speaker box i asked for it with milk (because we all remember what happened at starbucks) and the guys like uhhh yeah, like i was a complete idiot. then when i got to the window hes like oh so your from england and im like uhhh do i have a stupid accent? haha i didn't really say that, but i should have.
anyways travelling home, i felt confident in where my turn off was at the lights and then, bam, drove straight past it. another turn around. then i finalllllly got home.
i made grilled chicken and pasta for dinner which was delish.
and then i skyped with mum and the family in coona!
and then the phone rang and i answered and i say 'hello' and the man says 'hello' and i'm thinking, my god he sounds like dad, and so i say 'uhm hi, its danielle' and the mans like 'yeah i know, its your father' hahaha
so thats what happened today.
i miss you all, wish i could have been there for easter!
night! x
p.s i saw a police car that had pulled someone over whilst i was busy getting lost, and i get anxious in australia when i see a police car, so imagine how far my heart sank when i am driving and have no idea what i'm doing in america.. not good. and they have every single light on when they pull someone over, like blinkers, headlights, top lights, everything.

  2. I think you do an incredible job to drive on the wrong side of the road and so what if you became a little disorientated - that can happen to anyone (even me - just ask Pa). I so look forward to your blogs - you make me laugh. Happy Easter darling girl - love you tooooo much.
