- How many times do you cry at your desk before you say enough? How many times do you beat your head against the same brick wall before you cry uncle? This has been a bad week work wise. Hell, it’s been a bad year work wise. Today? I could seriously pack up my crap, walk out of here and never look back. (I might have to make 2 trips…that would probably make my departure seem less dramatic.)
- You ever entertain a couple that in many ways is very different? My best friend is FINALLY coming to visit this weekend. She is bringing her husband and her beautiful baby girl. Deanna and her hubby are different in many ways. She loves cultural events, him not so much. She loves good food, he doesn’t want to eat anything “weird”. She likes to browse at funky shops, he isn’t a fan. (Okay, that last one is true of most couples.) Simple things like where to take them for dinner have me stumped. It has to have meat and potatoes while still being eyes roll back in your head good and baby friendly. I think we’ve finally come up with a plan but it has taken me 2 weeks to finally pick something. But I am so excited they are coming to visit!
- When we have guests, I start the week with these lofty intentions of cleaning the house from top to bottom – making everything sparkle. Then the day is suddenly upon me and I’m shoving crap in drawers and closets and quickly running the vacuum to get the worst of the dog hair off the floor and spraying cleaner with bleach in the shower hoping it will eat away all of the soap scum without scrubbing. Just call me Martha.
