Another day, another dollar...

I found Joey some side work for today, which was nice... This work week just dragged on forever, maybe because I'm still fighting off some kind of fierce illness. I feel ok most of the time, but if I exert myself at all I'm wiped out! It's going to be a busy weekend, soccer(maybe, depending on weather), work tomorrow(yes, i volunteered again), birthday party, costume shopping and another birthday party. It never ends. I almost hope soccer is cancelled tomorrow because I need some sleep. This post season MLB schedule has been killing me. The Phillies are in, but now I have to keep an eye on the competition! The good news is the assisted living facility my grandparents were going to move into in January is filing Chapter 11, so they've pushed back their move! That may sound harsh, but I don't want them to go anywhere. That house was always my 2nd home, I'm going to miss it! And they want to move farther away? I couldn't deal, at least not right now. Maybe now that I have some extra time to warm up to the idea....

Today feels different...

I have to go to the dentist today. I hate the dentist, I get so much anxiety they have to drug me up just to clean my teeth. Usually on a day that I have to make that dreaded trip I HATE getting out of bed. But today was different... The Phillies are the National League Champs! 2 years in a row. After not seeing a Philly team win a championship in my lifetime there is a good possibility I will be seeing it 2 years in a row. I feel amazing, on top of the world... I can't even imagine how the players feel. It almost makes me want to cry! I wish HK was still around to see this. I know he's watching from above, humming "High Hopes." My Facebook friends have been posting and posting and posting about the Phillies... it's great! A city, a region, coming together to support their boys... it's an incredible feeling! You can call us ugly or angry, I'll even let you insult our mascot-just this once! But it doesn't matter! We are the Phucking World Champs and we are going to defend our title with pride! No one can hold us down!

So here I go...

I guess this is kind of like journal keeping for the 21st century, huh? I just always feel like I have a lot to say and no one to listen, so hopefully this will change all that. I've been struggling these last 2 months with juggling 2 jobs, kids, pets, hubby and house. I'm constantly sick(fever, achy, runny nose, etc) and always feel like I could sleep for days. I know that I take on too much, but I have this need to be constantly busy to try to forget about my problems. Once the house is done and it's a place I can be comfortably I think I will have an easier time relaxing, but for now I just have to keep moving. There are so many things I want and NEED to do, but the clutter and confusion in the house is making it so hard for me. Everyone I love is feeling it to... Joe constantly complains how I'm never around, never spend time with him, always busy... When, in fact, I am trying to stay out of his way so he can get something done already! Things are so crazy with family right now, people are sick, I mean really sick. I feel somewhat ignored and I hate feeling that way. I know life can't be perfect all the time, but does it have to suck this much, right now?
