Argh, I'm having a bad day!!!

Today started off ok, I went to visit my friends in Arlington and had a nice lunch. Then I got a phone call from Tim saying he was going to be home early and wanted to know if I could pick him up (he rides with a co-worker). No problem!!! As I get close to where I'm going to meet Tim (by the way I am an hour early) I get a phone call from the alarm company saying my motion detector in the basement is going off (I thought I bypassed it since the dogs are hanging out down there ~ clearly don't know what I am doing). Then as I'm hanging out waiting for Tim I get a phone call from my neighbor, Kathy, asking if my dog is on the front porch. My little girl got out of her new fenced yard and was waiting for me to let her in:( So, I gave Kathy the code for my garage and she coerced Josie into it. Tim was now due to arrive in 30 minutes but I was panicking about Leo, did he escape also??? he is terribly afraid of the doggy door so I don't think he escaped but I had to go home and see. So, I get home and have one frantic dog in the garage and another in the basement (Leo did not escape). As, I'm leaving to go get Tim the builder pulls up to tell me he rounded up Josie and put her in the back yard earlier ~ she is our little escape artist. After Tim and I got back home we put the dogs in the backyard and walked to the front ~ as we were walking the dogs joined us. Turns out Josie just needs to jump a little on the gate door and it pops open. Argh!!! So, we put a pad lock on it in hopes that it won't fly open. A day in a life!!!!
