Always a fight but with reason at the end

Wednesday was what I called the day from hell. For the last two weeks I have been trying to register for my classes, you might ask why I kept trying to register and didn't wait till my registration date? Good question, I don't get a registration date, I have to keep trying or until I get an email saying that its all good to register. Weird, yes it is! So, a couple of days ago I get an email saying that we can register on Wednesday. Awesome, finally don't have to be on edge this will all be over and I can enjoy summer instead of waiting around all day to hopefully get my classes and days I need. HA, 9am came around and I went to enter my codes and I get an error saying that I have made too many attempts to register and I was blocked. WHAT!!!!! So I signed out and signed back in and I got the error again. At this point I am crying and freaking out while all the classes are filling up and I cannot do anything about it. I call the school, no ones answering. I call the nursing department and they try to help but it went no where. So I get all four kids in the car to race up to the school to try and get this fixed. On the way there, baby jake barfs. Jessica is trying to help him and thank goodness it was not that bad. I get to the school and the classes are all filled and I am told that I am blocked for the rest of the semester. WHATTTT!!!! So if someone drops out and I can get in I cannot switch unless I call and get someone to change it for me. They NEVER answer the phone, I'm sure they are busy but something I can do from home cannot be done due to this block. My friend Nikki came to help me, she is such a good person.
Pretty much I could do nothing and the days I got where different than all my friends and now I needed to make arrangement for the kids. I felt helpless and in shock that this was happening. But in a weird way I felt comfort. Go figure! I wanted to crawl under a hole, I felt like it was the end of the world and I was not going to pull this off with the kids. I sat outside and just had a million things run through my head but it was weird, I knew it would be okay. Jake has always told me that things don't always go our way but it works out in the end. He is right, don't tell him I told you that.
I called my friend Rachel and just sobbed, I probably sounded like a baby but I needed to say all of this out loud. She is just an amazing friend, grateful is what I am for her in my life. It's weird but she is like blood to me, not just a friend.
After a good cry I walked to my car and my friend texted me that someone dropped out and to get in the class I needed. So I grabbed the kids and started to run for the office, by the way did I tell you I had to park across campus due to no parking?! As the kids and I are running Jessica gets stung by a bee. FOR THE LOVE! With that craziness coming to an end I get in the office, wave someone down and yeahhhhhhh the spot got filled and I was back to square one.
At this point I just get in the car and go home. Jake calls me and I tell him the story and I just wanted it to all go away. Thank heavens for my mother inlaw and being able to help me, Rachel and Laurel for making me feel that, yes it will be fine and for my awesome husband who has faith in me.
I just and to get school done and be done with this crazy stress. Wish me luck!
