So, this is me. With 6 days till my surgery and Luke started Kindy and Nate never home, I'm like, frolicking around in the field, just enjoying some ujjayi breathing and, like, taking in the tall grasses blowing in the wind and stuff.
I'm running around my house, Jake is like, greeting the bus half naked (the bottom half!), I'm stocking the freezer like I'm about to have arm cutting off surgery (first go at gluten free meatballs and I'm a little meh on them), the kids hate me, and I'm pretty much nuts. I've actually had people in life tell me how "laid back" I am (not joking), and they crack me up, because clearly they don't know me at all. I am a CRAZY person. With a K. Lining up sitters and planning next Thursday and Friday and weekend as though I was planning the beach landing at Normandy, you pretty much don't want to be around me right now. You would think that we live in a land where pizza delivery does not exist, or that I was married to a 2 year old, the way I am cooking and planning. Neither of those things are true, thankfully.
I'm going out to dinner with some girlfriends tonight, which I NEVER do when Nate is at school, just to get me out of my catatonic 8:30 bedtime after working my ass off all day routine. After that, it's all business till B-Day.
Enjoy your night out. You deserve it!
ReplyDeleteI can imagine the anxiety/worry from anticipation and lack of control you must be feeling. Or at least I would be. The unknown situation is hard. I am glad you took time for yourself. Hope last night was just the break you needed. Thinking of you often.
