November 13, 2003 – morning

Didja miss me?

Missed yesterday entirely – it’s been pretty busy here at work so I haven’t had time to blog in the mornings. Only reason I can right now is that I took a few minute breather to suck down breakfast (Yellow Cling Sliced Peaches in light syrup, in case you’re curious) PLUS, once I get home I’m so darn tired I don’t do anything. 🙁 Yesterday I fell asleep on the soul-sucking nap chair with the dog at 5ish and didn’t wake up until 8. So we missed yoga and karate. You’d think I’d have trouble getting BACK to sleep, but I went right down at 10:30 and slept until 4:30.

No. I’m not pregnant. I’m just very tired. I think it’s the stress of not knowing who is going to be signing my payroll next week, or if they’re going to make the opening a “Manager” position (I can apply for that) or a “Director” position (no chance…corporate will bring someone in). And then I KNOW Damon’s going to apply for it too, and I don’t want that to get ugly.

Weight: 146. Making no progress this week at all. I’m basically running in “Safe mode”
Mood: Harried. And tired.
Work docket: Did communities, starting engagements now, have to crunch out the new coupon product by TOMORROW (boss’ last day), and update the Jackson page.
Lunch: Will go to the mall for a sandwich. If I don’t get out, I’ll work though lunch and I think I really need a break.
Afternoon:Rousing walk with Max, who is still a terror. That dog will be the death of me. I’ll head to the gym too.
Evening: Get stuff together for CookieCam 2003. Martha’s December issue arrived yesterday with ONE recipe that, when altered accordingly, can be made into FOUR different cookies!!! PLUS (sounding like a used car dealer now I am) a recipe for homemade peppermint sticks!! I think I can do that. I’m also convinced I need an offset spatula. That’s another Target trip.

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)

Well, that happened.
