A need for a cup of tea

As I sit here at my computer, I see an unexpected surprise--a TAZO tea bag, "Calm." It must have been put there by an angel because let me tell you these last 4 hours have been nothing of the sort. In a nutshell:

• stopped by a train
• icy/snowy road terrain
• spilled my coffee all over my car
  
• managing wiggly boys through parking lots, exam rooms, car seats
• discovery of another ear infection
• Verizon store dysfunction
  
• juggling lunch tray with one hand, holding a squirmy boy with another, giving verbal commands to direct the other, who is telling me that he needs to go pee "NOW!"
• playing on the jungle-gym at lunch which was shortened by an "Uh. Oh. Mom, I pooped."
  
• cleaning off poop while 1 year old crawls under bathroom stalls and attempts to play in the toilet water.
• lost an earring in the midst of it all
  
• get home late, due to bathroom fiasco, miss a supervision meeting

So, let's get that water going on the stove. I'm going to make myself the biggest cup of tea I can find. I need it.
