Horrible day
After backing into a woman on yesterday and being questioned about a $183 deposit to the bank, I had even more drama when I asked Terrance if he would do a little shopping for me. When my place was broken into my dvd/vcr was stolen and Sears had a really good sale price for one, but because i'm lazy I didn't look at the Sunday ad papers until Tuesday so I almost missed the sale which was off on Tuesday. So I asked him if he would purchase it for me while I went to Spfld to pick my sister up from the train station at 7:30. I told him that I didn't have enough time to drive 40 miles to pick her up and get back in time before the store closed. He initially agreed until I gave him my ATM card and asked if he could take the money out of my account. He reniged. I was upset because that meant that i was going to be late to pick my sis up (I spent 15 min arguing with him) and that I was going to have to find my way to the mall in Spfld. Well, I found my way to the mall fine, but only after I was half and hour late to pick her up. After happily making my purchase my sis and I needed to excuse ourselves to the restroom where I put my wallet down along with my bags to tinkle. After relieving myself I grabbed my things and headed 40 miles home. My sis and I got home right before 10pm and I found that I left my wallet in the bathroom at Sears. I was frantic. By then the mall was closed so I got ahold of security who told me that they couldn't get into the stores which I already knew, but I was holding out for some little piece of hope. So,I went to bed, anxiety ridden, after a quick argument with Terrance (I needed to blame someone) and woke up early this morning tired. On my way to school I was listening to the Tom Joyner Morning Show and the topic was abortion. They were discussing the little girl who was born at 21 weeks gestation and how she was slated to go home in the next days. Basically, they were saying that this will be fuel added to the abortion laws. There are many states that allow abortions at 23 weeks. So the question of when life begins may have legislators rethinking the abortion laws. For some reason my body reacted to this news. I lost a baby that was born at 25 weeks and here is a baby that defied the odds. Most doctors don't give babies born before 24 weeks a fighting chance and here is a miracle baby. When I got to school, I couldn't contain myself. I went to the nurse and cried. I was almost having an anxiety attack. After about 15 min. I got back to my classroom and literally felt exhausted. I was glad that I didn't have to teach today because I had speakers coming in. But throughout the day I still felt heavy. It took me awhile, but I got it together.
