Perchance to Sleep

I hate it that the very place that is supposed to bring rest, relaxation, peace...really just brings this:

This house is a natural disaster. The laundry's as high as the doorpost. I have to got to get that pile of work done tomorrow...the start of the tour added so much paperwork to my desk. It's spring break and I need to spend time with the boys...and oh, Steve took off work this week, so we need to be together as a family...but I need to work this week. I am so failing at eating better...and that great idea I had to get a personal trainer? Yeah, she's kickin my butt so that every other day I cannot move another body part. I need one more director for VBS...I wonder who I could get? I hope the zoo's not crowded on Thursday because I would really like it if we could get a parking space up close and I would like it even better if I don't get 42 work-related text messages while I'm there. The yard is totally overrun with weeds...we need to weed & feed so we have a small chance of having a half-decent yard this year. I can't believe the twins are graduating from high school this year...what should I get them for graduation? I wonder how Alli's feeling? She has strept throat. I wonder if I'm missing papers that have come home with Cody about Jr. High? Surely I need to be doing something...signing up for something...buying something by now. Oh, thinking of buying something...Cody needs new baseball gear this year...and we can only get the striped baseball pants at one sporting goods store in town. Need to get there this week. I hope that spot on Caleb's cheek heals up...maybe I should have it seen about. That reminds me, I need to follow up on that insurance claim. Our back porch really needs some work done...need to fix the fence and gate. I need to make sure I get the page kit done for Legacy this week so I don't wait until the last minute like I do everything other week...except when Kristy does it. I need to organize the beach club stuff better. That filing stack is not going away...I have got to get to that. Only 3 more baseball practices this week. Oh, I'm supposed to go there tomorrow night, but Steve is working and Cody has baseball practice...must see if Pawpaw could get him to practice and back. We have got to get our passports this week, but I need to get a copy of my birth certificate...I forgot where I go to get that? I need to check on that this week. Did I make the house payment this month? I'm sure I did, but I better check myself. I need to go back to the Sprint store and find out why I can't hot sync my phone...argghhh. If I can't hot sync my phone, I might as well give up because I will never be able to remember my schedule. I need to reschedule my trainer appointment so I can take the boys to the zoo. I need to remind Steve to get the tires rotated on the car. I wonder if the garage door is closed. Did I set my alarm clock? Spaghetti sounds good for supper one night this week. Did Abby go out? Why is the dog next door barking? I really want to see Confessions of a Shopaholic. I wonder if Izzy is going off Grey's? Why am I thinking about that? I haven't taken my shot in 3 weeks. My memory sucks. Great...I wonder how many years until I'm in a wheelchair. I wish I knew how to change the header on my blog by myself. I haven't had my quiet time this week...I'm a loser. God, do you hear me? I'm glad our Sunday School teacher is teaching on 'balance' right now...I could use that. If I could just have a few more hours in my day...that'd be great.

I'm seriously frightened to go to bed.

Girl! You need some drugs to wipe you out so you don't think all this stuff when you lie down at night! Reading it wore me out! I totally understand it though. Cause I do the same thing...in my head I make a list of all the things I need to do the next day...makes it hard to fall asleep!

I love you sista. It will all get done - because it always does. If it doesn't - it will be there tomorrow and the next day until you have time for it.
