Good morning, everyone!!!
Have you ever had one of those weeks where you weren't even sure Friday existed? Where you weren't sure it would ever get here? Where every day between Sunday and Friday just seemed to slowly drag by? Yeah, it's been that kind of week for me this week.
People dig their feet in and make it even more difficult to get things done. You feel like you are running in place when you should be making progress. I hate those kind of weeks, but it seems like we've been stuck in that one for a couple of weeks now, errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.....
I'm hoping the weekend gives me new perspective on this issue. Some time away from the situation is definitely needed for sure. Usually this helps me get things figured out and find the right solution.
I can't tell you how much I need this weekend away. It must be obvious too because when shopping with hubby last evening for our provisions for the weekend he made sure we kept things very simple and minimal work for me. He even stated, you don't need to do this or that, I want you to be able to just relax and enjoy the weekend :) He's such a sweetheart :)
We worked together last evening and got everything ready to go for the most part. He loaded the firewood and made kindling. We found a gas line that needed replaced, which answered the question as to why I had trouble getting my stovetop to light :) So he'll get that taken care of today while I'm at work.
He picked me up the cutest little vacuum for the camper yesterday, which I used and it did wonderful :) So, yes, the camper has been swept and mopped, fresh sheets and blankets put on the bed, my tea is made and in the fridge, and everything is travel ready inside other than putting my laptop and a few small items that will fit into my laptop bag, into the camper :)
Instead of him doing the shopping today, we went last evening so all of that is done and put away in the camper :) He'll come up after gas prices change today to get the truck and gas it up, then get hooked up before I get home :) Then it is change clothes and off we go for a weekend away!!!
I wasn't sure I was going to make it through yesterday. I was so sick and I knew I needed to just push on. But man, pushing on was the hard part for sure. This morning I have a bit of a headache, which I figure is because I'm probably dehydrated a bit. So that is an easy fix by just consuming as much fluids as possible today. Then if that doesn't work I'll take some Excedrin and call it a day LOL.
It will be nice to just get off work and head out for a weekend away :)
Life is strange sometimes. Such as the couple of weeks we've had. You see what the solution is, but no one seems to be cooperating to make it happen other than the few. It really gets under my skin and I'm not very good at things that get under my skin, LOL. I just want to shake those who aren't getting it and say wake up, do what needs to be done, and things will be fine. But no, it's never that easy. Of course not. Because that is the simple solution.
I don't even have enough fingers on both hands to count how many times I had to stop what I was doing this week to do something that should have already been taken care of. That's when my temper gets the better of me and I really have to bite hard on the tongue before I find myself lashing out.
Normally, this stuff wouldn't bother me so much. But when it all happens at once, well, I have little patience for such things. And then my irritation rises to levels I do NOT enjoy. That's when I know its time for a bit of time away. Because if I don't take a bit of time away then I am going to explode for certain.
This is the behavior in me that I do NOT enjoy, nor do I like to live in. Once I get stuck there, it is very hard for me to get out. So the solution is get away for a few days, relax, and begin again next week. Hopefully with a fresh perspective and fresh mind.
Well I guess I should quit boring you with my whining. I just needed to vent this out this morning to get rid of it. I'm sure there'll be more to add to it today, seeing as for the last three weeks it seems like there is something new every day to add to the compiling list. But at least this part will already be vented :)
Everyone have a lovely day!!!
Blessings to all!!!
