my morning

It was

one of those mornings....

dropped a glass bottle of make-up

on my bathroom tile floor.

It broke

with glass and make-up splattered and scattered

I gingerly stepped away

to put on my flip-flops

and grab a rag and the broom.

As I swept up the glass

I knocked over the still-hot iron

which knocked over the spray bottle

that wouldn't spray so I had taken off the top to investigate

and the spray bottle full of water

spilled over the counter

and on the floor

smearing the make-up.

Just then my work phone rang.

So,

I gathered myself and answered the phone.


But, cheesh, what a way to start the day!
