Burning Candle at Both Ends, getting burnt.....
I've been getting about 3-4 hours sleep a night, as I have too much to do, and there is no help for it. Closing is coming on the house, whether I'm ready or not, and they want me out on closing day. The therapist told me she had a doctor's appt Tues at 11, but she could make it by 3, and she had canceled all her other appts, but was coming in just for us, because she knew his insurance worked by days of therapy, not sessions, so she knew we had to take them both together. So let me see, I had the air conditioner guy who wanted to come, but told him know, hubby has therapy. Had my mom who is 84 and I rarely get to see who was coming to within 25 minutes of me, that I could have drove to see her, but no, Bob had therapy. Could have went and worked on the other house, but had therapy. Then of course, there is the work at home, cut grass, dishes, wash, all that normal stuff we never get done. And I could have napped, since I was dead on my feet, but busted my *beep* to get in there to his therapy. So I get there and the reception tells me that sp therapist called and there was a 'family emergency' and she wasn't coming, and she thought she'd wait till I got there to tell me because I had another therapy with PT schedules. I'm sure this family emergency was she decided not to bother to come in! This is the same gal that i go thru and make a month of appts at a time, and have went over and over the 'both appts have to happen the same day, or no appts. If I take one without the other, then I can't get it back, that day will be 1 of the 60 and I will have lost that therapy. If looks could kill, that girl would have been dead.
I was so angry how she took my time for granted like she really thinks I could just go home, no big deal, when I have 5 things to do in every time slot and knocked out the other things, to be THERE. I was so mad that I could not go home and nap, which I really could have used. But went to the house to work. Carried out many things until the Rendevouz was full, then went to Lowes for something I needed. I must have looked as bad as I felt, because the girl at the register immediately asked me if I needed a chair. I said no, because I knew I wouldn't be able to get back up.
I went home and got hubby up and changed, carried in half the stuff that I needed at the new home then put him in the car and we went out for fast food (sorry to you & sorry for me) and then went to the lockers to dump the other things. I could have taken it on the way home, but knew he would be waking up and he likes to go to the lockers.
Came home & went to bed around 9 and acdtually slept 12 hours! I haven't slept more than 3-4 since I can't remember.... I really don't know how I can be overweight, since I never sit down and am working like a man, around the clock.
