Addiction.....


Confession time....I have an addiction and it is Sundrop. A wonderful citrus soft drink made in the South that is not good for the body. For the last several years I have had many stomach problems with acid reflux and heartburn. If you take these two things and pair them with Sundrop and nerves, then you get a lethal combination that demands attention and the maximum dose of Prilosec allowed a day. The last time I had a Sundrop was Saturday, November 13, 2009, and the time before that was back in the early summer of 2009………until yesterday. I had a not so brilliant idea to drink one yesterday in a glass bottle with a yummy candy bar. It was a good idea going down, but I am paying the price today. It is probably going to be a Sprite and saltine cracker day due to the pain and stomach upset. Note to self….DO NOT DRINK A SUNDROP no matter how good I feel or how bad my mouth waters when I see one.

Wonder Woman

I was just sitting here at my desk thinking "I am soooo tired today" and I reflected on what I did yesterday - it is NO wonder I am tired because I was the following:

  • MOM
  • Counselor (to a friend)
  • Receptionist
  • Bill Collector (which I hate)
  • Legal Assistant
  • Friend
  • Short Order Cook before and after church
  • Referee to Hayden and Maycee over something stupid
  • Wash woman for 3 loads of clothes - YUCK! and they are still not folded but that can wait since they are clean!
  • Personal Trainer - this is a joke, but my boss is doing this program call Egoscue and he hates doing it and HATES when his wife rides his butt so I am assumed the role of Motivator and I sorta enjoy it since I get to ride his BUTT!!! I told him yesterday that I was not on his clock because he was on mine!
  • Girlfriend - but I think that someone got the short end of the stick on this one yesterday!
  • Last but not least.....Nursery worker at church!

I am sure every working mom has days like this, but I really needed to just put it down to remind me of why I am always so tired! I need an adult vacation in the worst way without menus that include a "children's toy"! Hope everyone has a great weekend!!!!!
