Another ok day
Well… I slept a lot, I had to get up at 7 a.m. to make sure Bec and Syd got off to school, but as soon as they left, I went back to sleep until 9 when Jerry woke me up telling me to get my butt over to Chicago Title, except that I needed to go to Wells Fargo first. So I did that, then took Shabree into Elk Grove to Mimi’s for lunch, then a quick trip to the scrapbooking store, and then to Wal mart, then home, where at 1 I crashed. I got up at 4, again because Jerry wanted me, though he then called right back and said I was off the hook. I found the kids, asked Syd if she’d done her homework, because drifting in and out of sleep, I was conscious of the fact that I hadn’t heard her doing her homework, she hadn’t asked me for any help. Well, she HADN’T, so I got on her case about that… her sob story was that she couldn’t find it. I told her neither had she LOOKED, nor had she done her reading OR her math, which weren’t IN her homework packet. I was very much a yelling mom today. I am trying to decide if I want Tiffani back to clean the house… I am getting tired of the flakiness, plus she won’t find the time to do more than the basics, so the rest of the house has fallen into a horrible disarray. I mean, I can do the main house stuff myself, now that I’m feeling so much better. I’m just frustrated because everything else is a mess, and it just keeps getting deeper. I hate seeing it. Today actually feels like kind of a waste, because I slept so much. I should get to bed now, so that at 7 I’ve gotten a full 8 hours and I’m just ready to get up and face the day. I am pretty tired. But then, I also want to work on some swaps/scrapbooking, so I can maybe show some progress there as well… tomorrow I’ve got to get some packages off, so that they’re off my plate. One in particular I was supposed to have to the recipient at the end of last month, and here it is May 2nd, and she still doesn’t have it, so I really need to get that to her. I would also like to clean up/reorganize my scrap room. It almost seems a joke, because I have NOWHERE to put my extra printer, so I can reclaim most of the desk, and the room is overspilling with things that are big and bulky, and I’ve got no clue where to put them. But if I could get SOME order to the place, I’d feel TONS better. I can’t barely begin to work with everything as it is, but then I’m on deadlines, so that forces me to do something.
Well, I’m going to post this… I really should get to bed.
