I left the house really early this morning, with the idea that I’d arrive at work early and get some things done. One of the uncles is on vacation this week which doubles my job load, plus all the little extras that need to be done before Dan and I hit the road. In other words, I’m swamped, and have no idea how I’ll get it all done before Saturday. The garbage man arrived a few minutes after I did (he usually comes about 10am) and had to wait until I opened the gate. On his way out he dumped loose trash in the driveway, but didn’t stop to pick it up. So I did. I let myself in, arms full, tossed everything on the counter and went to shut off the alarm system. Blank. My brain went totally blank, as in the number I’ve used for twelve freakin’ years was totally and utterly gone. I remembered it finally .... three full seconds after the alarm went off and the police were called. It took at least fifteen minutes to straighten that out with the alarm company, and reset the system. Then I made coffee, I never drink the stuff, but if I’m first in I make it for everyone else. While doing so I managed to dump grounds down my shirt, and when I went to dust it off I only managed smear brown oil across the front of a light blue shirt. Next I made a trip to the loo (that phrase always makes me want to sing ‘Skip to My Lou’-haha). And when I came out there was a stranger standing in front of the door. It’s a good thing I’d just pee’d, cause I damn sure nearly did again. He was with the roofing company and was just letting me know he’d be banging around on the roof. Gee, thanks mister! Less than twenty minutes later the phone began ringing, and employees started arriving and I had basically accomplished nothing! Today’s only saving grace is that I have an appointment for a pedicure tonight ... and I do luvs me a pedicure!
