Missed it by a mile

Last night was overwhelming. Seems the "housekeeping staff "at Becher Haus have gone on strike and I'm bewildered by the volume of extra work required to keep the house livable. When I finally sat down, it was with knitting, waiting for the man to get home, and by the time I remembered I still needed to post, it was already Friday. I'm getting about five hours of actual sleep a night, business is not booming this week, and I'm in full-on flip out mode. Kind of queasy all the time, too. I have more paper-worky stuff to do, so I won't have to go to prison for not paying my sales tax, so if tomorrow goes as planned (meaning I don't get submarined) you'll be hearing from me. I hope y'all are well. Latah, knittas. C

Just breathe, Cami. Just breathe . . . it'll all get better, it really will.

Well, I don't know about the housekeeping . . . I'm still trying to get it through the kids' heads that I'm not a servant, and that they will help with taking care of themselves.

But everything else? It'll get better. Just breathe deeply and slowly. It tells your body that things are okay now, and does wonders for calming upset stomachs and hyper-drive minds.

Hang in there . . .

I feel your pain. I don't know why my freakin' family insists on just sitting and WATCHING me clean. I am with you in the full on freak out mode. I totally freaked out last night...today I'm in a blah mood and don't want to get my ass off of the couch (well...computer right now)

Five hours huh? I'm surprised you get any more than two hours sleep with all you've got going on. You need a break! In the meantime -- drugs -- bring on the drugs! Oh, and screw the housekeeping -- life's too short and it just gets dirty again. I've got dust you can write in and I. Don't. Care.! Get some rest woman!
