So tired of being tired
It’s been a crazy… hell, you think about our last couple of years and it’s just been nuts, I swear to God, and it’s not getting any less insane.
That’s okay, though, because I don’t like to be bored, right? Of course right.
Everything is always in flux, or at least that’s what I tell myself, and there’s no rhyme or reason to it, you just have to hold onto your butt and go with the flow.
Sean is coming to visit tomorrow, my daddy’s having surgery on Friday, I have deadlines that there’s no way to hit, and I cannot seem to make this headache go away. Stress is bad, even when it’s good, I guess.
Also, who the hell scheduled the holidays so close together?
*breathes*
So, I need a cup of coffee and to find my houseshoes and wake Miss J from her nap.
Then I have to make the bed with clean sheets for Sean.
because the plane lands in 21 hours. O.o
Much love, y’all.

*clings* I've missed y'all!
So, we moved. I had company. Now, I’m having a sister, then a Sean, then a Daddy.
O.O
I know, right?
Busy!
But, the house is unpacked, my world is coming back to center and this is the view from my sunroom.
So’s this:
Sonny approves.
So does Sadie.
So do we! (hats compliments of my mom)
Much love, y’all!

Mornings
I get up at the same time every day. It’s a thing.
I’ve always been that way. If there’s an alarm, I can get up earlier, but I’m like my daddy. I’m a morning person and even without the alarm my eyes are usually open before the sun is up.
I love my mornings. I wake up, look at Facebook, do a puzzle on my iPad, then I get up, turn on the coffee pot, open up the house (I’m a fresh air whore), spend a few quality minutes with my bullet journal. Usually the boy basset gets up with me for bit, at least until I check my emails and get up for my first cuppa. Then he goes back in with his sister and his other mother.
I choose the playlist for the day, make my plans, and then suddenly, it’s time to work.
Like now.
O.o
Are your mornings basically the same or do they change wildly?
Mine, thankfully, are normally the same and I love them that way.
Much love, y’all.
