Worn out
All week, I've been tired with no particular reason for it. Well, today I do have a reason. I was up late with one of the kids last night over a medical issue. It was all sorted out well enough for me to go to work today, but still, I need my eight hours of sleep or I turn into a pumpkin, so someone make a pie with me.
Nonetheless, there was no excuse for the general lack of energy of the rest of the week. I was OK at work, but at home, it was all pizza and pre-frozen dinners, nothing terribly gourmet.
The good news is that two DVDs arrived in the mail (for my Aussie friends (are there any of you?) I'm trialling Bigpond movies) just in time for the weekend. Hurray! I love movies turning up with virtually no effort on my part, and being returned via the post office. If Himself wasn't set on cable TV, well, I might even take up a subscription - that is, if I wasn't entirely certain that I'd rapidly run out of things I wanted to watch. Still, I'm working my way through the Battlestar Galactica Series 3 DVDs right now, and that makes me with the happy.
A rental inspection looms for Tuesday, but in the spirit of staying married, we have agreed that we'll get a cleaner in to sparkle up the place. And lo, it will be done.
So - as long as I can stay sane amidst the never-ending debacle that is our house construction, life might end up being OK.
