Busy times (Part 2)

So how come when I get 2 great days in a row, I want a 3rd? Why can't I be grateful and happy and ready to settle down and do some housework? Instead, all I can think about is having more fun! Does this make me selfish? self-centered? unappreciative of those around me that made my 2 great days possible?

Friday afternoon I got to go to PG with T & D and have a great afternoon and evening shopping (first time in almost 2 months). For a shopaholic, that was heaven. Spent way too much money, but got groceries, clothing, summer stuff for outside, gifts for the boys, etc. It was great to spend the time with 2 of the people I love, doing something together that we all love to do.

Saturday I went scrapbooking with D & all my friends (except one). It was absolutely great! We laughed all day and I got 6 pages completed. It was a great day of creativity and friendship. After packing everything up and coming home (to a house with nobody in it!), D and I played Civilization IV on the computers as a team. We made our own supper (hot dogs that screamed and their heads popped off - in the microwave) that made us laugh, then more Civ IV till almost 1 am. I had to stay up for an hour to calm down since I was so wound up in the battles on my computer I couldn't sleep.

I was up at 5am to get Demetris up and ready for Cadets (going gliding in PG today). I headed back to bed at 6 and slept in till 10. Now - wouldn't you think I would be grateful to my family that is all up and moving and working . . . They are all busy cleaning out my breakfast nook and turning it into a coffee/computer station and running new water pipes for my laundry room redo. Now isn't that enough to get me going - get me out of my chair and working?

Here I sit, writing in my blog and my mind is completely submersed in working on blogging for D's Coveted Cutz blog site and playing more Civ IV. I am a bad person. I am going to H E L L. Up, I am. (Flog, flog, flog.)

  1. LOL. It sounds like you are loving life and thirsting for more. And how could you not? All that activity is very inspiring.

    I am reminded of a saying similar to: "Without the rain how can we appreciate the sun?"

    With out contributing at work, how can we not appreciate the awesomeness of weekends?

    On good days that thought helps motivate me out to work. On bad days... not so much. :)
