Morning girls and Matt. I am 100% exhausted, physically and mentally, and have to get ready to open my store here in a few.
Matt, I hope there's something for you at your conference. I didn't have 1 OP (on plan) thing to eat yesterday with my conference/meeting/picnic in Chicago. Think that's part of why I'm exhausted.
Pearl, happy first day of school!
Left Springfield at 6:45 yesterday morning, went and picked up a coworker in Decatur, then went and picked up a coworker in Champaign, and then tried to figure out how to get to our destination in Chicago from I-57 instead of I-55 (which is what our directions said to take.) Finally made it up there, and on time, and spent the day playing softball. We won the loooooooooong game we played 23-16 and then called it a day. Retraced our steps and got home at 8:30, then had to run to my store to pick up my keys, came home, showered, and tried to watch a little TV but fell asleep.
I am SORE. I fear that my right knee is deteriorating. Have a spot that feels like bone on bone now but, as always, don't want to go get it checked out. I also got sunburned, despite bringing sunscreen, but it's not a bad one. Only problem is that I had my sunglasses on all day so I look like a raccoon.
So I spent 456 miles in the car yesterday and played a long, hard game of softball all day. Made it on base a lot, and miraculously even sent one (just one) into a hole in the outfield.
Need to know if I was too much of a
or not. I have a friend who is very self-absorbed and always has been. Materialistic, spoiled, but has a good heart deep down, just can be a real PITA. One of her sons is my godson and turned 3, his birthday party being Sunday, and I didn't go because she lives 3 hours away and have had all the aftermath going on from my grandmother dying.
So I get an email from her this morning. It says simply this: "Way to go. You missed Caden's birthday.
" Something in my little brain went *tink* and so I replied:
"Happy Birthday to Caden. It's been on my mind, I didn't forget. Way to go. You missed my grandmother's funeral. Sorry, but I've had a few things going on here lately and have had to focus on my mom and my family. I would have sent a gift or a card, but I don't have any money right now."
Too b*tchy? She's probably going to be upset because I typically don't like confrontation, but I'm tired of it. My grandmother died and my mom's a wreck. I didn't have the time (or money for that matter) to drive up 3 hours, spend an hour there, and drive 3 hours back. Let me know what you think.....
