Yes boys and girls not only is it Friday but my vacation from work will start today at 1:30 PM... my vacation from life is still scheduled for Sunday...
I awoke at o-dark-30 and got my lazy fanny out of bed so that I could leave work at said early hour and I have plans for a bit of beauty time, manicure, pedicure a bit of waxing (eyebrows people please) then home, and another list of stuff to do, cash, bills, laundry phase one, laundry phase two will be tomorrow with Bubba home, packing checking and worrying about my babies.
I know -I know but its my house and my babies you want the pups to be all right. And enough - the other neighbor will be home and is aware we won't be. Ah Grownups ;-)
So won't see the Steeler game this week or next - this week eh-- it's the Cleveland Brownies... who well aren't a great team. (yeah ok I was going to say suck eggs but I didn't want to poke karma in the eye) Now the Sunday we get home... my Steelers play the Vikings... yikes. I want them to beat Baltimore this Sunday - but then they will be all pumped and full of themselves for our game but it they lose they will all ticked off and fired up to play better against the Steelers. Cripes that is just lose-lose. Screw it I'm on vacation!! (oh - cabana boy... another one of those fruity-rum-make-me-forget-hours-in-my-day drinks) hick
I don't expect to get a lot of stuff done work wise today - I think I hit the vacation wall about 4:30 last night... I tried to push through for another 30 minutes then bagged it... then the night really started. It was raining, so traffic was SOOOOOOOOOOOOO slow and by the time I got the grocery store to pick up my 'script refill and a bit of something for dinner I was so ready to be done driving.. now out done, and 1 minute from home - I could walk from this point... accident my half of the road is closed. That intersection is a real issue people don't stop from one direction and from the other folks are flying down the road .. 1 minute from home.... but NOOO I have to do the 4 point turn around (me and 6 of my close friends) head back from whence I came, and get into the neighborhood from the back end... I was 1 minute away. I don't think I can put into words the complete dejection I felt about being so close to home and then... blinky lights, blocked roads, twisted medal - and I hope no one seriously hurt. But still -- one freaking minute I would have been home.....warm dry.. and yeah I'm cranky and unhappy about it.
I got home, finally, comfy clothes, dinner done, puppies loved, shows taped, watched, went to bed early then the alarm clock........
I can report that the pictures are still on the wall and I moved things back underneath them, I shifted some things around and I think we're pretty much done -- for now. Still working on that getting bookshelves build in my office... we'll gauge the mood when Bubba gets home. If I were a betting gal I'd say the mood will be 'cranky'. Not much of a bet, the spin the wheel of Bubba moods, you have four options, happy, hungry, tired, cranky-- actually you could bring that down to two as hungry and tired equals cranky so you have happy or cranky. And after a late night cross country flight - oh yeah winner says Cranky! (say that with a carnival barker voice and it's funny - trust me)
OK so I'm off to pretend to do something constructive today and see how I do. I will check in before we sail then y'all are on your own for the week... Aunt Ing is not logging on to a computer... so not happening.
