me time

I have realized that I need more me time. You know, the time that you can actually do things for yourself, with time to spare. Like the every fun and exciting, laundry. Dishes. Walking the dog. I seem to not have enough time for the things I want to do. I seem to not have enough time to do the things I need to do. Its frustrating. For example, I mentally prepared myself to get the 10 items I needed to do done before I had to leave for work at 130p today.

an example......

Scene: 624am
Situation: My boyfriends phone ringing
Why: Who the hell knows
Emotion: Annoyed that I am awake far earlier than I wanted to be

We are soundly sleeping, as the dog has climbed into bed and this of course means Im suffocating and cannot breath, but would take this over him pacing and barking that he wants to go out any day... I had been advised the night before that the plumber and contractor were arriving at his house at 7am for some paperwork that apprently cannot be filled out during normal hours.

He is adding a second bath and this seems to be taking forever. (I cannot imaging what a kitchen remodel would entail and hope to never have to live through that.)

Anyhow, because of this aweful hour of "paperwork filling out" someone feels the need to call him at 630am. No, it is not the plumber or the contractor. Its a firend who just wants to chat. I look at him with disgust and wonder "who chats at 630am??!?!?!?!"

The only person I ever call at that hour is my mother, who by the way wakes up at 3am most days, and I cannot even beging to understand how she makes it through the day.

He gets off the phone, after a quick conversation, and I and still wondering "who chats at 630am?!"

Good thing that phone call happened as the plumber NEVER SHOWED and the contractor arrived at a prompt 745am.

Shortly there after I received a slue of phone calls from work. From 750am to 802am I got two people calling out on the same shift.

Good times. Needless to say, I would love more me time!
