Well, here I am unwinding for the night.. It is always nice to have a day off during the week. It's only nice if you can relax, unwind and do whatever you want. Oh! Who am I kidding? We all know that if your are a parent or work hard during the week, there is no such thing as relaxing on your day off.
If your are lucky, you will get laundry started, house some what cleaned, bills payed and by the time that is taken care of, you are well on your way to start dinner, help with homework, or give your undivided attention to your loved ones.
My day began, MUCH later than I had expected. I woke up feeling as if I had been twisted into a pretzel and could barely move, that didn't stop me. I soon stretch up, out of bed, went into the kitchen and did my daily routine of taking my coctail of vitamins and other meds that are prescribe for my sanity... I personally thank the person who invented Zoloft. You've saved the thousands of people that I may have attacked! Lol! Just kidding.. Although, if I hadn't started taking it, I probably would have had many many problems.. and just be the biggest bitch you've ever met...
So, after my daily routine, I got dressed and headed to Family Dollar, in hopes to find plastic totes to start packing our stuff away. What the heck happened to that place being inexpensive? I could've gone to Wal-mart and saved more money.. there was no time to waste, so I payed what was due and on my way was I!
Awww.. home sweet home. No time better than now to get started, I think I will start in Avery's room, she has the least amount of stuff in her room. Sure enough, twenty minutes later, I was ready to move on to Colin's room. Oh, the dreaded feeling!
I knew it was going to be an ALL day job. That dreaded feeling still had not gone away. Onward I went... dun...dun...dun...
Where do I even begin, but I just chose a spot and started. I cannot believe ALL the crap and toys my child has! Well, here goes... I dove into the unknown, and the unknown it was! He saves every wrapper, paper, pen, pencil, toy, stuffed animal, and even clothes he has grown out of long ago!(and he still wears them).. well, three garbage bags full of toys that haven't been played for quite some time, candy wrappers, clothing and shoes, I was finally making a slight dent in his room. I packed three totes, one box and all that is left is his bed and a few larger items. :::sigh::::: Relieved somewhat, but I knew I was NO where close to being finished!
I headed downstairs, looked around and felt so discouraged... felt so, unacommplished. I began pulling pictures of the wall, clearing out the entertainment center, storing these belongings in bags and boxes. As these things are scattered all over the living room floor, I moved into the kitchen and unbenounced, unmotivated, was I, I kept on keepin' on. Cleared out the China hutch, and started in the small dungon that I call my room.
My hell, when is this madness going to end! I am one person doing a two person job...or at least it feels that way. I gathered what clothing I could and packed it into large garbage sacks.
Now, after all this, I still feel unaccomplished. All this hard work, the sweating, overheating and a spasming lower back... I decided I would call it a day.
Who ever said packing is easy, well they are smoking crack.... I was ready to pull out whatever alcohol we have and kill the bottle...but I didn't, my luck I'd just end up feeling even crappier. I ended up on the bed with the heating pad on my back, awww.. now that was nice. I don't think I have moved much since then.
Just as I was feeling as if I hadn't gotten enough done, My sweet babe came home from work, and said that I had gotten more done than he expected. Awww.... he sure made me feel sooo much better than I was feeling! Thanks babe!
Now what? I suppose bed is the next step. I am exhausted!
