A Work at Home Mom’s Blog

Ever feel like you have the weight of the world on your shoulders? I’m having one of those days.

I stayed up late last night trying to get some work done, and slept in a bit this morning. I needed to get a couple of hours of sleep and get back at it because I’m behind, but I can’t write well if I’m exhausted. So I thought I would sleep until 9:00 or so and get up and get to work.

The phone woke me at about 9:45, and it was Hubby. He went back to work today, but he ended up getting sick and needed to come home. He parks his truck in town and rides with his cousin to work, and the office is close to an hour from here. He wasn’t sure if his cousin could bring him back, and if not he needed me to come get him.

Of course I didn’t argue with that. I got up, got ready, and waited for the word. He called back, and I went after him. I dropped him off at his truck, got enough gas to make it back home in mine, stopped by the grocery store to get him some crackers, and came home.

I went ahead and ate lunch when I got here, and then got to work. It was nearly 1:00 before I got started, and I need to get at least a total of 3 articles, a report, and a blog post done today, and more if at all possible. I was supposed to work on Hubby’s grandfather’s will (which I would rather not be doing but he’s not going to have one if I don’t and he’s pretty sick and there are lots of other extenuating circumstances), but I don’t think I’ll be able to get to it today.

I also have to go to the bank and put some money in, because I was forced to use my bank debit card instead of my PayPal card for some stupid reason to get the gas and crackers. And after coming home and checking online, I realized that I had enough money for them in PayPal but not at the bank. Grrrr.

I know it could be worse, but I’m just severely stressed over it all. I guess I had better get back to my writing now if I want to have any hope of getting it done.
