Overwhelmed 4:05 p.m. 2005-11-17 I am guilty for ignoring you, my Diaryland Journal.... Please forgive, but I've been a busy bee lately. Actually, I've been pretty bitchy lately. I should have known what was to happen. Sometimes it really sucks being a girl. Anyways, I was so looking forward to getting my new comforter in the mail this week. Things would have been quite lovely if the JCPenny people put the correct comforter in the box. Instead of the beautiful king sized comforter that I ordered, I got a full sized, powder blue comforter. It is just so frustrating to pay for something that you never wanted. Now, I have to drive across town and go the store and return the darn thing. I should have known that buying something online couldn't be this easy. Maybe I was just fooling myself. Oh well. There are Christmas lights up everywhere, and it's a week before Thanksgiving! What is up with that?! I can feel the pressure already!!! HELP!!! Will I just do gift cards for the nephews and nieces this year? It would make shopping a lot easier, but I find it so unpersonable. BUT, the "kids" are getting bigger, and those days of finding that special toy for them at the toy store are gone. I think the only ones I'm going to shop for toys this year will be for my youngest two. Oh well...they are older now, and all they want is money. Sigh....sad, huh? Anyways, I've committed myself to another adventure with my oldest. The day before Thanksgiving, after taking my mom to her doctor appointment that morning, I'm going to have to make an extra trip up to San Francisco so my daughter can check out a new art/design college in the downtown district. So, from San Jose, I'll be driving south on Hwy 17 to Santa Cruz, then back north on Hwy 17, then get on the 85 south to go home and pick up my spoiled daughter, then head out back on 85 north to SFO..... Oh, and don't let me forget: I need to stop at Costco for dinner rolls, wine, and a dessert... Welcome to my world.
I know, I over extend myself sometimes. When I take a day off, it is seldom that I can take an entire day to "relax". It's been months, possibly years even. I'm feeling just a little overwhelmed right now. Maybe it's just because it's that special time of the month that little things seem incrediably larger than life. I dunno, I just wish I could just go to bed and pull the covers over my head, and not worry about waking up until noon tomorrow. I know..impossible, but one can always dream. |
