A million thoughts for posts in my head but no real time to sort or type them out. I hate days like today… I had all sorts of good thoughts about what to write about over the weekend but was busy or wanted to do something else at the moment. See what I get for procrastinating!
I slept horribly last night. I Tossed and turned and woke up so many times. This happens a lot on Sunday nights when in Tahoe as I need to wake up early to get ready and drive back to the Bay Area and work. So I start waking up and checking my alarm around 1:30am or so. And once I am awake, my mind is off and racing about things to do at work, home, family, etc., etc. I feel like I got 3 hours of bad sleep if that.
I am usually extremely organized no matter what but today was just a mess. I found that I made a mistake. I didn’t save a spreadsheet on a certain date several months ago and now need a number (it’s an spreadsheet with many accruing formulas) from that date and have to re-create it. But many numbers and columns and cells play into it. Not one that can’t be fixed but time-consuming and stupid. I hate that. Very, very unlike me. 50 lashes…
I do not think the rest of the week will be much better as it is very busy with work, work, Storm’s ultrasound, work, Board meeting prep, Board meeting, work and whatever else I can throw in there…but I will fix it and put organization back into my space. It’s what I do best I think.
Am looking forward to taking next week off in conjunction with Labor Day so I get a 9-day stay in Tahoe. I figured use my vacation time up now for a nice summer week as I won’t really need any until Christmas anyway! Quite happy about it (minus the stress of getting tons of work done beforehand.) I’ve already begun to prepare my chore list for the house up there mentally (sicko) but will definitely set aside time each day for hiking, reading, sunning, catching up on True Blood Season 1 and husky fun! PLUS football season officially starts on 9/10 :) (although I am liking my Fantasy team less and less as I stare at it and compare to the other teams in my league – boo.)
On an up note, I looked fairly cute today…fun pink summery J. Crew dress and cute pink Betsey Johnson shoes. Outfit really should have put me in a better mood all on its own :)

I feel for you – Sleep what is that- don’t even know what the word means anymore. Life seems to run at us in so many directions that we don’t know where or how to stop. I hope you are able to get away for a few days and enjoy yourself. One constant- the work will always be there upon your return – just maybe in a higher pile then when you left.
