Muddling Through

Ever have one of those weeks where there is just too much going on? This has been one for me. I had a whole list of things I had to do Monday, and I'm happy to report, I got them all crossed off, including inventory at work, which I almost forgot about (and didn't have on my list!). That night I had to take Morgan and her friend to volleyball practice in a town twenty minutes away. Then I ran to another town to pick up Ashley's choir dress that a friend hemmed for her. Then back to vball practice....waited probably another 30 minutes for them to get done. Got home after 10:00.
Tuesday I had to work, which means I stood on my feet from 8:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. I was home for an hour, then headed to the high school to help get ready for the choirs Christmas dinner show. Mostly I worked in the kitchen. Then I helped clean up after it was over....I was on my feet the entire time. I got home at 9:30. My back really hurt.
Wednesday I decided I HAD to go work out. Then I knew I HAD to get some Christmas shopping done. I got home in time to rest for about an hour, then picked up Morgan and we both had chiro appointments. After that it was home to make/eat dinner, then off to haul Morgan and Katie to practice again, in a different town, further away. It started at 8:30....yes, that P.M. It got over at 10:15 (it was supposed to be done at 10:00). There was no place in that town to go have a cup of tea or anything, so I sat in my Durango and read a magazine. I got home at 11:00.
Today I had to work again. Why I decided to wear high heeled boots, I don't know. I then had to make a run to Wal-Mart, then back to the chiro (hips were hurting big time!). I was thinking about going to the boys basketball game tonight, but then realized I have a supper to go to tomorrow night at my friends church (and I have to work tomorrow morning), and Saturay is our towns "Old Fashion Christmas", where Ashley's choir is singing at 6:00 at the little strip mall and then again at the tree lighting.
So, tonight I am enjoying a few cocktails, a little TV and hopefully some peace and quiet!
