Murphy, you may go away.

So on a normal week, I'd have all the time in the world on Thursday to work. I try not to take advantage of my wonderful mother, but she's always so happy to watch the girls for hours if necessary so I can get my work done. She's also often off on Fridays, and I know if I got really behind she'd help me out then too. Normally, I don't need her to work for hours; I have a few things to do, they run smoothy, and I go home!

Today is not normal.

Today I have extra work to do in the form of another bulletin. I'm happy to do this (and getting paid a little, as well!) for my preggo friend who is due YESTERDAY and of course for the ministry of the church. However, I hit a little snag resulting in needing to use a new program (which is actually very cool) and it's taking me a little longer than I thought to get things just right.
AND
We didn't meet until Wednesday to plan worship this week so I'm already behind.
AND
The copy machine is down.
AND
I still have 400 Sanctuary bulletins to print and then 130 Impact bulletins to print.
AND
I haven't even started my Media Shouts for the week.
AND
My mom has to leave at NOON today.

So Murphy, you may GO AWAY!

Disclaimer: I'm whining a little here. It's totally going to all get done (assuming that the copy machine is fixed, of course); it's just going to require a little more creativity from me. If the copy machine isn't fixed, then you are all going to have to just pay attention in church to what comes next. :)
