A so-called "break"

It is now Sunday night. Where has the weekend gone? I am overwhelmed with how tired I am. Is this normal? Why am I this tired? Some say I do too much. Do I? I thought what I do is normal. I also wonder how people get anything done. I really want to know what I'm doing wrong. I watch minutes tick by, hours fly past my eyes. Why don't I have more time in the day to get things done? Am I the only one feeling like this?

Friday - I had a wedding to attend in the evening. I went to work and earlier in the week I was going to leave from work and rush around and make it. Well, I changed my mind and actually decided to leave early - it was tough but I do prefer Friday weddings over Saturdays. Anyway, I got ready and a friend picked me up. The wedding was absolutely beautiful and the bride and groom were stunning. It was so amazing to hang out with friends and let loose! Dan, stayed overnight at my mom's as well as Mya.

Saturday - I really wanted to start as early as possible, even with a workout. Workout never happened and unfortunately I got up at 9 - ugh, my day is almost over already! So, I got ready and went food shopping. I believe this is the fastest time I've ever gone food shopping. Done in an hour - went to Sam's and Walmart - sweet! After I unpack at home, I go pick up Mya at my mom's (Dan went to the zoo with my mom). I take Mya to the dog park to let loose a bit. We were there for about an hour and a half. Now get this, for about a week now, Mya has just been sneezing non-stop and licking her paws over and over again. The best thing at the dog park is that you can find out information sometimes (hopefully true). Now with Mya sneezing, I knew she must have allergies but seriously, dogs with allergies. It was crazy for me to think of this. Apparently, it's true and common. Someone I talked to said benedryl - again, what? But it was info to ask the vet. I was grateful for that.

On my way back home, Dan says they are on their way home. I come home, grab a bite to eat and run out the door to get Dan. We then proceed to a communion party. Ok, so I relaxed a little there but at the same time giving myself a headache thinking of what is awaiting for me at home. Oh, and it's like a million degrees outside! I mean, I love it and all but unusual for April.

So, we're at the party, I watch the Flyers lose and Dan asks if he can sleep over. I say ok. So, at least I got to see him for a few hours :). I leave the party and head home. Ryan is at work today as well.

As I enter my home and look around, I cringe - where do I start?! I go upstairs to finish what I started in Dan's room. Twice a year (when I change the clothes for the season) I do major guttage to his room. I throw-out and donate basically everything. I had 4 garbage bags and 5 donation bags. I finished his room at 9:30 completely with clothes neatly away in all drawers. I give this about a week before I start yelling again. For now, everything actually has a place - who would've thought?! Ryan comes home shortly after and we just veg out till about 11 and we stumble into bed.

Sunday - I get up around 8 and get ready for the day. I start cleaning immediately. I did the upstairs closet as it was getting on my nerves. Then as I started the kitchen, Ry went to pick up Dan. Before I knew it, it was time to leave for a soccer game. At least I got the kitchen done. So, we trek up to Warrington. They win 4-0 with Dan in goalie - nice shut-out. They are playing up as well. I am amazed of how good this team is. Anyway, while at the game, I talk to another mom about how Mya has allergies and she said her dog did as well and she gave her benadryl. She even told me that her dog used to lick her paws raw! Great...so i'm really worried about that. After we left, we do pick up benadryl.

There was a tad dispute in the car at this point (Ryan did have off today) as it was about 2:45 and no one was really hungry but I knew I wasn't cooking so we either go out with my parents or we have spaghetti. He gave in and we went to Hong Kong Buffet. I really like that place for some reason. After dinner, my parents drop us off and we immediately leave to take Mya to the dog park again (she's got soo much energy). She did ok. The heat wasn't helping her. We leave about 5:45. I'm driving home and my eyes are a little blurry. Can I pass out now?

We get home and I start cleaning the breakfast bar to just finish it. Then I thought it would be a great idea to clean our front door to get all that mud off of it that Mya put on there. As I type this, I still have to go clean the screen and window sitting in the tub. Dan was in the shower so I make lunches. Ryan got off the computer and I take the opportunity to type my weekend's events on here. The Sixers are on right now. I have to finish cleaning and figure out when to go to bed to get up early and workout. Oh yea, missed my workout yesterday. Can't do it all, right? I still have to finish cleaning the house for my major spring cleaning. I'm thinking two days off from work?
