Called in sick today...just feeling blah! Maybe it's the week catching up with me and then a long night last night. Whatever...it's a good day to do it since it's an inservice and I don't need a sub and the kids won't have to deal with stupid piddly work (like they will Tuesday when I have a 1/2 professional day for a sped meeting). Anyway - around 11:30 last night I couldn't sleep and was tossing and turning and I thought, "I don't need this...I never take a sick day for me." So there you go.
This has been a frustrating morning so far. I did everything I could to fix my elliptical. I tightened bolts, I tried the little tricks and maneuvers the dude at Sole service told me to try and nothing worked. So, I called the service department again today and explained what's going on to another service guy and he thinks it's faulty parts. Which means, he's sending the parts to me. That will take 2-3 days. After that, within 2-3 days, I'll get a call to set up service. It will take (get this) about 2 days for the service guy to DRIVE up from Arkansas!!! And then I'll hopefully have my machine repaired! So annoying. I. Just. Want. To. Work. Out!!! It's depressing and I'm sure I'm packing on the pounds! UGH! I know I need to settle down but this weather and it being the middle of winter and it's not like I can just go take a walk or get on my bike! It's been raining for - what seems like - 2 fucking weeks and I NEED SUMMER TO GET HERE! And I need my elliptical to work. And I need...a drink!
I'm not going to have a drink, however, because I do plan on doing some work from home today but boy would a mimosa taste good right about now.
The weekend is going to be jam packed with fun! Tonight we're headed down to Trip and Susans for dinner. The Egberts are coming to town (they'll be staying with T & S) and Anne, Steve and Madison will also be staying with them (Jim and I will stay with them tomorrow). Tomorrow we're going to Perfect North for some skiing and tubing and then back to Trip and Susan's for some fun. I believe JJ has a soccer game which we'll all go to and then I think we're going to just order in pizza. After that it's going to be about chilling, hanging out and maybe playing games! Sunday, who knows what's on tap but I do know that we'll do a family dinner at T&S's with Dad joining the fray. I'm just looking forward to all of us hanging out and enjoying each other's company. (Sure wish Cullen were in town to join.)
And that's all I've got. I'm going to do some school work now and then hang with my crazy pups. Happy Friday! Happy long weekend! Later!
