Its the end of the day and I just have to toss in a few more words. Today was a blindingly hectic day, and most of it was my own darn fault . I should have prepared better last night. Somehow I guess I got too wrapped up in writing, watching tv and finishing up the laundry that I didn't have the energy to iron my clothes for the next day or be sure everything was ready. That was bad. I got up at 5:30am, a half an hour late. Took too long getting ready and didn't get out the door until almost 7am. I really try to leave no later than 6:15am so that I have time to drop Will off, get some coffee and be at work by 7am. I do this for several reasons. The ultimate reason is so that if anything goes wrong, as it did this morning, I have a good hour to work anything out. The other reason is that it gives me time to go to the gym and work out for 45 minutes or so. I'm hoping to lose some of the fat I've gained over the past four years. Which is about 30 pounds worth...yikes, and quiting smoking isn't going to help that at all. I'm hoping that my hectic schedule will keep me away from food long enough to drop the excess fat. But who knows, maybe eating on the run all the time will actually cause me to gain weight...sigh. One thing I am dearly thankful for is the fact that Will's daycare provides breakfast, lunch and plenty of snacks....his old daycare didn't do that. It was a royal pain in the kiester to prepare all of his food the night before.

Anyway, as I was saying, I didn't get out the door until 7am which meant that I didn't arrive at work until 7:50am, just in time for my 8am meeting. However, this is about the time that I realize I don't have my ID. Grrrrr!!! If I had been ready last night I might have caught that. Now I have to try to navigate work without my electric entry ID. So I've got that on my mind. The other thing that is consuming me is that I needed to get down tot the real estate company to put down a deposit and submit an application for the duplex that I'm hoping to move into soon. My son and I have been living in a hotel for over 6 weeks. I wish I could sue the morgage company that told me they had approved my loan and drug the process out for another month before withdrawing their offer last week at the last minute. Now, here I am two weeks into my internship and I'm still living in a hotel. Oh, I wish I could tell them what a mess they've made of my life. Guess it's my own silly fault for not having a Plan B.

So I spent the morning at work trying not to fall asleep cause I'm so exhausted. Worrying about my work and my supervisor and what he would think if I cut work to take care of this house thing and get my ID. Grrrr...it's 11:30pm now and I have to go to bed...bone am tired. Will try to finish up the story tomorrow...don't let me forget to talk about shoes..my, my I never thought something could be so complicated and frustrating as a pair of shoes.
