one of those days

got up before my usual time to drive to NH airport.
(i am not a morning person)
kids acted WHACKY in the long car ride.  like i fed them coco puffs with choc syrup and whipped cream for breakfast whacky...
returned home.
then back in minivan to take teens to funtown.
then proceeded to drag myself and whacky kids to the grocery store only to notice kellen left his shoes at home. (logical) so he had to ride in the shopping cart and was not happy about that one bit.  
drove home with car full of groceries.
parked car in garage.
opened trunk.
only then did i see the disaster that awaited me.
1 jumbo size laundry detergent had fallen over and the lid holding all 120 fl ounces of said detergent had come OFF!   emptying its contents all over the back portion of my minivan.  it was a giant blue pool of arm and hammer with oxi-clean mess. 
and what was swimming in that pool?  oh yeah, my groceries. 
fabulous!
:(
one of those days i really needed a do over.
and a beer.
i got neither.
