Of course one loses all track of day and time when you aren't home, and doing nothing but driving for 10 minutes between hotel, and office and working all hours of the day and night. But today right now boys and girls I am escaping the gripping clutches of Huntsville Alabama. It's been a week since I landed here, tired, cranky and ready to get this done and over with... little did I know that an ENTIRE WEEK later I would be returning home.
But returning home I am. 10 minutes and I will be on a place pointed in the right direction. AND bonus as I finally got my own frequent flyer number I didn't have to pay for my checked bag!! Hey! Not that I was paying for this stuff anyway the company was. But still...
I talked to Mom today - who I must say scared the pants off of me... let me 'slpain..
This is where I boarded the plane yesterday and got home and loved the girls and went to bed!!!
SO! Let me finish that story - plot the plan of Wednesday and let us all get back to our lives hum? Shall we?
So all day Tuesday I am on pins and needles just waiting for the other shoe to drop and I would be stuck in Alabama all that much longer. I was really on pins when my partner in crime in quality was talking to our boss and with all there was left to do... he asked if I was still "in the office" ahahhhhhhhh
THEN as I was rushing (sneaking) out the door to head to the airport, my work cell phone rang... almost didn't answer the darn thing. Then I saw it was Mama so I was safe. She didn't know I was still in the land of cotton so it was cool We talked once I got to the airport, turned in the rental car, got through security... bla bla bla... We talked - she explained her email - which I will document later and I think label "old people need watched" but its a work in progress.
I got on the plane, LOTS of people with me, of course I was getting used to my 6 AM 6 people flights. I was flying home, at a normal time with people who do the same type of work I do... and never shut up about it... cripes and enough already.
TOTAL BONUS - landed early AND I didn't have to deal with the shuttle home, 40 minutes and home not 40 stops between me and home. Got home had some ice cream with the Bubba, loved the puppies, cleaned their ears and brushed their teeth -oh yeah they are sooo happy Mommy was home.
Today has been the day of poke-prod-and are we done already? Passed my physical, pass my ultra sound, went to the diet doctor and by the time I got home I realized that this wasn't what I expected, wanted or want to deal with -- so we're going to face facts. I don't want all those drugs and no support - so all the drugs are going back. AND I'm going to have to start making better decisions and taking care of me. Heaven help me.
Step one - get ride of the crap in the house.
Good thing Bubba is leaving for Vegas this weekend so I can clean house and not listen to "We spent money on this..." 2 crumbs of potato chips are not being saved. Ice cream is gone, prepared foods will be donated. Heaven help me I'm going to have to cook, chop and plan ahead. This last trip brought a lot of things home and the size of my pants was just one of them.
Of course I could also then just toss up my hands and call the doc and schedule surgery. ;-) Let's hope I can do some good on my own.
OK I've still have got a few hours of work to make up for being at the doctor's all day. Tomorrow should prove entertaining... and not in the good way.
