fried

Some nights, I sit in front of this computer and stare at it for minutes on end, before I realize I have no idea what to blog about. Some nights, the well is just dry. Nothing feels relevant or newsworthy. I'm sick to death of new house/old house, and am sure you are too. I'm to the point where it just all needs to be done. One sold, the other finished, all moved in, life goes on. It's taking too much brain power and energy doing all of this stuff. I feel zoned.

For the past three weeks, I have 100% forgotten to go get my allergy shot on Wednesday after work. So I had to go the next morning. This week, I was DETERMINED to remember to make it on Wednesday. And I DID! Only, after I had parked and walked halfway up the front walk to the doctor's office, I realized that my 6 month follow-up appointment was the next morning, and I could just get my shot then. I had even determined this the Thursday before. The receptionist had even called me that very morning to remind me of the appointment the next morning. Seriously, my mind is fried. I don't know if there's any hope of getting it back. Sweet Rose, the woman who gives me my shot each week, mentioned today that she had seen me walking up yesterday. Yep. I felt like a moron!!!

We showed the house today. And we're having an open house on Saturday. We lowered the price just a bit and we're offering a carpet allowance. There's no sense in us replacing the carpet because of our three dogs. If the new owners are going to have new carpet, I'm sure they'd prefer it didn't have "dog" on it...we'll see what comes of this.

Just found out the May crop is going to be on the 19th. Can't wait! I missed it last month, so it will be good to have a day with the girls. Plus, since I missed my birthday month, I will be getting my birthday group gifts!! :) Stretch that birthday out! Love that!!

I need some time to unwind. I think I will read a bit. I'm in the middle of "Nights in Rodanthe", which was highly recommended by my aunt Sandy. So far so good!!!

I can understand why you are "fried" right now! I think there IS hope that you will get it all back after everything with the house stuff is settled!!! Keeping my fingers crossed for a productive opened house this weekend!!

I'm ready for the crop as well. I hate when you (or me) have to miss makes me look even more forward to the next month!

Have a super weekend. :)

You have every right to have a fried brain! I think I'd have had a nervous breakdown by now.
