you know it has just been a shitty day…let’s make that a shitty week…and I’m more than tired of how everything has been going here lately.

I was having one of those days at work…ya know, the kind where it is one phone call after another, too much work and not enough time…if I wasn’t on the phone someone was at my door with a question.

So I am told at 4:30 that my ex husband is on the phone.

I have had 5 days off from work, and I don’t think I have dreaded going back so much before as I do now.

I am burnt out severely. My vacation was supposed to be next week, but my boss made me change it. I have to work…4 more weeks before vacation.

I’m afraid some things are going to have to change around there before I make myself sicker, emotionally and physically.

Okay as to my hair…it is reddish brown…more red that I have dared anyway. I like it but I’m sure I’ll get negative comments soon.

After my hair appointment, I worked in my flower bed all afternoon, then went to my mom’s to visit & eat some cook-out food. That was pretty good.

I went out to a club with a friend last night. Let’s go out, she says. Hmmm…it was so much more fun, sitting in that club feeling sorry for myself than sitting at home feeling sorry for myself.

We left at 12:30, hit Waffle House, then I came home & fell asleep surfing the channels. I MADE myself get up at 10am, then I drifted around the house…cleaned the kitchen, thinking I would get started on the decorating I want to do.

So, I got my new Live CD today, and one song stands out for me (other than Heaven…I just love that song!)…it is called Run Away. The lyrics just speak to me.

“I’ve got the scars to prove that love has had its day and it’s way with me”

Ed’s the man.

So…I’ve decided to try to work on my kitchen this weekend. My daughter has soccer game at 9am, I am getting my hair colored at 10:45, then I will come home and either: 1. start on the kitchen; or, 2. work on my flower bed. My dad poisoned some weeds in it, so they have died & need to be pulled. I need to buy more pine bark mulch & set it out cuz we’ve had so much rain, it has washed a lot of it away.

Let’s hope this keeps me busy. Now, if I could just do something to inspire me NOT to quit my freaking job…sigh.

so May 20th has finally arrived, along with the release of the new Live CD…

However, I ended up ordering mine from amazon.com so it will be a few days before it arrives. I don’t know (don’t care) if I was duped but it said it was a special edition with special concert footage you can watch on DVD. sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet

I love Live. There is a lot of music out there that can make me feel good…but there is SOMETHING about Live’s music that really makes me feel…good, hopeful…ALIVE.

here’s my This or That Tuesday for this week:

Even More Potpourri…

1. Large or small family? that depends…as far as who all I consider my closest family, I would say large.
2. Potato chips or pretzels? chips
3. House or apartment? house
4. Zebras or giraffes? giraffes
5. Candles or potpourri? candles!!!
6. Flowers or trees? flowers
7. Right or left-handed? right, except for some reason, when I shoot pool, I shoot left handed
8. Model trains or dolls/stuffed animals? I don’t care as long as it has Snoopy on it…and I believe I have trains, dolls & stuffed animals of him!
9. Comedy or drama? Both!!
10. Thought-provoking question of the week: The city of Boston has recently banned smoking in all restaurants and bars. Would you want to see such a law passed in your city/town/country, or not? it really doesn’t matter to me…too many people I know on a personal level are smokers; I would hate to think that we can’t go somewhere in particular because of something like that.

on that note…I’m going to bed!! lol

so it’s Friday. I am going to a fun party tonight, then out with some friends for a few drinks. I should be excited that I am doing something, yet I just want to lay down and take a nap! Okay, well, I’m going to move onto the Friday Five.

Would you consider yourself an organized person? Why or why not? I consider myself organized; I am better at keeping organized at work than at home. Why? It just makes life easier.

Do you keep some type of planner, organizer, calendar, etc. with you, and do you use it regularly? I have a Palm which is a freaking lifesaver beyond belief! I will never carry a calendar again.

Would you say that your desk is organized right now? Mine at work, yes. At home…not quite.

Do you alphabetize CDs, books, and DVDs, or does it not matter? Yes, I alphabetize all that stuff and YES it matters.

What’s the hardest thing you’ve ever had to organize? Someone else’s work at my POE.

well I better hurry need new makeup and all before I head out…
