Insomnia

Good Morning- or Good Night... however you see it. It's 2:00 am, and as much as I would love to be sleeping right now, I have been laying in bed for 2 hours dreaming/obsessing about the amount of work that I have to accomplish in the next few days. All of my co-workers except one are all going to be on vacation on Friday, and then all out next week for different conferences. That leaves two people to (it seems) pull a whole conference together in one week. There have been months of planning calls, but also months of NO PROGRESS. Just when I thought that the meeting was becoming a little manageable, they went and changed everything as we know it. That means late nights, probably some time logged in at the office on Thanksgiving, and then everyday (weekend included) until next Thursday, when I can hopefully ship everything.

It doesn't help that Steve has been sick the last week (he's almost completely lost his voice) and still is... and I'm desperately trying to fend off the germs.. or the fact that my car has been in the shop twice this week (to the tune of say... my whole Christmas budget!). Rodents deciding to stash their winter seeds into your ac/heat blower is never a good thing. That was only part of the problem this week... Maintenance, Labor, and BALL JOINTS, inspection sticker... sigh. We dropped off the car a few hours ago, and hopefully I'll get it back tomorrow/ this afternoon. I'm going to have to rely on Steve to get me to work and to pick me up so I can get my car. Who knows how he'll be feeling...the poor guy.. I've been asking so much of him lately... and we haven't even started putting labels on folders or stuffing 550 nametags... I love him!!

I could start my to-do list right here on my blog, but I think I would lose you quickly. As much as it would help me to get my thoughts down, I think I'll spare you the details. Hopefully by writing this much, I can get back to sleep for a few hours.

Thanksgiving is Thursday... I wish everyone a great holiday! I'll be working most of it, but I will manage some Turkey, and I have already picked out the most giving Thanksgiving (maternity) pants for the occasion!!
