Not gonna happen

December 1, 2007 By Michele Leave a Comment

So, today marks day one of the Holidailies. I’m not playing. I’ll see if I can officially withdraw myself. Truth is, I’ve come down with a cold on top of the other viral infection. I simply don’t want another obligation right now. So – I’ll be writing when I have the urge. And no – I’m not going on hiatus – just don’t want to have to do anything. My body is making it known I have to do too much.

Next time…

Next time I whine about not having anything to write about, smack me up side the head. Hard.

Yesterday I got a call from Poe before I left for work, letting me know he was being towed – the car just plain stopped working. At first, ’cause the ticker showed 1/4 of a tank they thought he needed gas. Nope. Towed to our mechanic. The mechanic played with it all day. Several test drives, and a long stint on the computer, and it’s running fine. he can’t find a problem.

Sigh.

I went in to work late, as I needed to pick Poe up from the mechanic’s and take him home. I get in to work and my office – only my office, and only one wall – was dark. No Power. Of course, that’s the side my computer was plugged into. So even my timecard was late since I couldn’t get to it. My circuit was blown. They don’t know why.

My health issues are making me extremely tired. Energy is just not something I have right now, so work is about all I can handle. But I HAD to get some groceries last night… I had put it off too long. It was a bad idea. I got home we unloaded, then headed out with the kids in their jammies to pick up the car. By the time I got home I was slurring my words and staring into space – I was THAT tired.

So next time? Just smack me. I hate Mondays.

I’m stubborn

I come by my stubbornness honestly. My mother is the queen of stubborn.

After all this. She’s going on a cruise today. I have to drive them to the harbor. My father is renting a wheelshair for God’s sake – a CLUE that MAYBE it MIGHT be too MUCH for her!!

“You know I don’t think you have any business going, right?”

“You know I’m going anyway, right?”

How does one argue with that?

This bothers me on several different levels. I’m having trouble articulating them. Read the article and tell me what you think.
