Mama didn't say there'd be days like this...

So, the other day I was winding down from a craptastic day! We had been to a play date, ran errands, ate out for lunch, been to Costco for the 3rd time that week. At long last...I had a date night with my husband. I told the girls that I was going upstairs for 30 min. to take a bath and get ready for my date. Well, in the tub I was giving myself a mental pat on the back for how much we had gotten accomplished in one day. I get myself completely dressed and come downstairs. As I turn the corner, I smell a very familiar, albeit pungent smell. I see Sophie staring at me next to the couch with a "oh shit, I am in trouble look". I asked aloud to both girls..."What is that smell"? Sophie immediately responds, "nothing, I didn't do anything". Then immediately Avery follows with, "um, yes she did...and mommy you are going to be MAD". So, much to my chagrin, after a brisk walk to the couch...I see it and smell it! My 3 year old, apparently got a hold of a full bottle Lady Mitchem Roll on deodorant ( which I had put in the garbage can that morning for our housekeeper to dispose of) and rolled the ENTIRE bottle on my newly recovered couch cushion. Now, let me digress for a moment for a PSA on said deodorant. If you want something that will keep you dry no matter what...buy this shit. It even says on the bottle...”so effect you can even skip a day”. So you are saying, what's the big deal...just wash it off. Well, I would if I could...but I can't! So remember the whole you can skip a day moto...well, the reason behind that is, it adheres to your skin...and doesn't let go.

I tried to regain my composer. I put Sophers in TO and tell her if I hear a peep or see her face, she is in "BIG TROUBLE"!!!!! I proceed to take the cushion out of the cover...which is a royal pain mind you. Try to wash it with dish soap until my fingers are raw. Then realize that the deodorant has made a coating which my most non-environmentally friendly detergent could not penetrate. I finally get it somewhat washed off...or so I think and put the cover outside to dry. In that same moment Brian comes home to a hot (not in a good way) sweaty wife and he’s ready head out for dinner. I have to again clean myself up, spray a little perfume and get out the door. All with a smelly film of Lady Mitchem which would not come off for 2 days, on my paws!

Did the deodorant come out you ask? No, 2 weeks later it wreaks of Lady Mitchem...I will never buy that again for as longs as I live. Which reminds me of my title...why does no one warn you that you WILL, in fact have days like these???
