*blink* *blink*

What’s that little flickering speck I see in the distance? Wait… is that the light? My eyes are having a hard time adjusting to the shimmer of hope in the form of a tiny globe of light. The walls of this tunnel are dark, cold, dreary and wreaking havoc on my eyesight. Alas, the end is in sight. *whew*

Today is work at the “real” job, work at the spa, dinner/shopping with the girls, back to the house to finish packing and cleaning, home to crash for a few hours. Tomorrow the alarm clock will rip me from my exhaustion-induced slumber far too early. I will then head back to the house to bring garbage to the dump, meet with my renters, do the inspection and swap keys for a check, then off to the spa (if I’m not there already) for a few appointments, then home to go for a run (if I can manage), and movie night/crew night with Jo. You know, if I can make it past the initial credits. Sunday morning up bright and early for church then back to my parent’s for birthday lunch for Jeannie and then off to the local county fair to work the EMS booth. Before I know it, it will be Monday again. After that… I am quitting life for a week. I will go to work and go home and sit my happy butt on the couch and do as little as humanly possible.

What’s that? You don’t think I can do it? Really? Is that a challenge? Oh you are ON!

I just keep telling myself if I can survive this weekend, I deserve a week of no to-do list. Maybe I’ll even catch a movie at the theatre. There are a few chick flicks that I have been meaning to see. MAYBE I’ll even get myself a massage to see if I can remedy this ridiculously sharp pain in my shoulder.

Me thinks it’s high time I start taking care of myself a little better. And with the house stuff taken care of, I will have that much more time to do just that.


The good thing is, I’m sure I will have PLENTY of things to discuss after a shift at the county fair. At least I hope so.
