Called In

/ aidan, life, sick

So, Aidan didn’t go to sleep until after 4am. Remind me to NEVER nap with him after 5pm again. Chris was sick, so he didn’t/couldn’t really help with him. I was supposed to be up for work in about 90 minutes, but I called in and told them that I wasn’t going to be in due to those two males in my family. There is no way I’d be much help to either of them at this point.

I’m going to try to reschedule my counseling too–I NEED to get in there this week and I don’t know if I’ll be able to make it tomorrow. I mean today. In 7 hours, bloody hell.

Where does the time go? I can’t believe I’m still awake. I wonder if I’ll ever get my sleeping pattern back on track. If it ever was on track.

*sigh* Goodnight?

Holy Crap

I totally can’t sleep and I have to be up in 3 hours for work. Then after work is get Aidan, go straight to the chiro, then small group. Chris is sick, Aidan is still awake. Family Illness Day, anyone?

Mm yeah, it has to be done. I won’t be able to function properly otherwise.

Night owl syndrome. Darn it all to heck.

Mixed Feelings

/ life

It’s 2005, and tomorrow is back to “normal” life. But then, what exactly IS normal?

Don’t worry. I’m not going to get all introspective here. I’m really not in the mood. But there is something special about that time between Thanksgiving and New Year’s. I’m not sure what it is.

I’m trying to look to the new year with optimism. But you all know my typical way of thinking. All I can conjur up in my mind are endless grey and dreary days, cold and/or rain, and battling depression. I hoping things will be better than that. I have some amazing new friends whose lives I want to be all up in. Perhaps that will help keep me sane. 🙂

Random tidbit: Letting off steam is a good thing sometimes, as long as it’s not taken too far. I keep getting this feeling that the best/worst is yet to come, though. There is a lot more to certain things than meet the eye. Not a happy thought.

I’ve got a slight headache and I’m tired. Aidan should be ready for a nap soon, I think. But again, he didn’t wake up til late morning, and he didn’t fall asleep until 2am! I wish he’d go to bed earlier–like 1030 or so would even be good. But alas, he’s a night owl like his mommy. I think he’s ready for a nap, though. Goodness knows I could use one!

Mmm, nap.

Tired & Stuff

/ aidan, church, family, friends, horoscope, life, shopping

Went to Aurora yesterday. It was fun. Got great things from Mommy and Greg–a Mickey Mouse anniversary clock, a bath basket set, a teeshirt, bath stuff, plaques, and the $100 gift card. Aidan was SPOILED. He got a bike! He loves it, too! 🙂 We went to the outlet stores at Aurora Farms and I got a few things at Gap–a new scarf, hat and glove set, and some nail polish. Oh and a cute new purse too. I used my $25 gift card and only had to pay $14 out of my account.

I woke up this morning intending to go to church. Then Aidan woke up and started crying. So Chris went and got him, and Aidan wanted to cuddle with me. So I did! 🙂 Then I changed his diaper and decided not to go to church. I’d even put my pajamas back on. So Aidan and I cuddled in the bed for a while. But then he turned back to normal Aidan and I was able to go. While I was getting ready, Bizzy otaku_witch called and said she’d meet me at church. WooHoo, I love hanging with her!!! 🙂 In short, I was pretty late to church, but got enough out of the message. Bizzy, Katie live4himalways, and I went to lunch at Burger King, then Bizzy and I shopped for a bit. I got 2 pairs of running pants, a shirt, 4 camis, and a bag. I LOVE shopping. 😀 And I LOVE Bizzy!!!

Went to Chad & Christy’s for dinner–we had a yummy spaghetti bake thingy. Chad’s parents were there. They’re sooo funny. Especially the story about “f*cky kitty.” Ha ha ha! I fell asleep there. I do that a lot, their couches are so comfortable. Aidan was sleeping on me, which was awesome. I love when he sleeps on me!! 🙂 Right now, he’s “playing” a computer game. It’s so cute. He’s loving it, and learning his letters in the process. OOo, now I want to buy him more games! 🙂 He’s so adorable, sitting at the computer and smiling! I <3 Aidan! 🙂 So, I wonder what I am going to spend my Best Buy cards on? I think I have about $125 dollars left. Hmmm. I was thinking DVDs or CDs or something. I don't know. We'll see. I have a slight headache and a backache too. I think I need to get a tremendous amount of rest. But I don't know when that will happen. I'm so busy and full of mental energy and dealing with something sort of stressful and very personal so all of that is kind of taking its toll on me and dang it, I need to take my medication. Tomorrow, I have to do laundry. Oh brother. SO MUCH LAUNDRY. Lord, help me. Also, Irena is coming over to eat spaghetti and hang out, and I'm looking forward to that! 🙂 I AM SO HAPPY I DON’T HAVE TO WORK TOMORROW!

This was one of my horoscopes from yesterday:
Some are optimistic, but you feel only exhaustion. Your reach is still long, but your arms are tired. Maybe you don’t have to run such a big empire. Relax your grip and let some of it slide through your fingers.

HAHA, how true was that? I wonder if the horoscope writers read my livejournal? Heh. I doubt it, but it’s still pretty funny.

I have lots of pictures to upload again. Should be fun.

That’s it for now. Byeeee!
