I am still so very tired, however it is Friday and that makes me so very happy. I am determined to sleep in tomorrow, untill at least 8am to even 9am, that would be just the most amazing thing ever.
The Irishman is getting better, which is good, hopefully he will gain some weight back soon. I never sy that about me, nor do I know anyone else who says that about themselves. Only him, he is still so very thin, I have to admit, I was very worried for a while.
I wish I could get a disease that makes me lose weight like that. It would be so amazing if that would happen. I would really love to be so thin people look at me and say “wow she needs to eat something!” That has never happened to me, I would so love for that to be said to me just once in my lifetime!
One good disease should do the trick, nothing huge, just an intestinal virus or something like it. So not fair that the skinny people get to be even skinnier.
Well it is that time folks, time for us to choose a new tour here at work. I chose something different for my first choice. I don’t know if I will et my first choice or not, however if I do, I shall be working Monday through Thursday 6am to 5pm. That will give me Friday, Saturday and Sunday off. A three-day weekend every week, not too shabby.
What that means is the Irishman and I will no longer have a day off together. which is fine, because even on our days off together we don’t spend it with each other. So it really doesn’t matter, he is very busy you see not doing things with me. So having a day off together is not that big a deal to him.
I am looking ahead to Christmas, three days off in a row would be great to get things done, like decorating, shopping and yes cooking. Christmas is the only time fo year I actually cook, I make cookies, dressing, a ham you know, nothing fancy as I cannot cook anything fancy.
I cannot wait to go home and go to sleep today, I am so tired. I need a good, uninterrupted nights sleep. I hope you all have a grand Friday, I may get a Starbucks on my lunch break.
Thursday the gateway to Friday
The page is blank, it is taunting me with its whiteness, fill me it says, if you can. Perhaps one day I will not be able to, I do not look forward to the day my head is completely without thought, or I lose the ability to convey the thoughts that bounce around in there.
I live in fear of having Alzheimer’s, my mother had it, my great aunt Linnie had it; it is a truly horrendous disease. I do not believe enough attention is given to it. The absolute heartbreak of watching someone you love go into a world where you have no place and they can’t find their way back is sad. Sad is the word to describe it, I believe sad is an overused word, to me sad is a word that should be used when it is truly sad, when your heart is just broken and it seems it cannot be put back together.
Such macabre thoughts, when I am not in that type of mood, the moon is still high in the sky and it is so beautiful, I am wearing a brand new OU jersey and it is Thursday. Thursday is the gateway to Friday; I will be getting my nails done after work, so it is all good. Tomorrow is my last day to wake up at 3:00 am; I am hoping I don’t regret my decision to go to a later shift. It means more sleep, in theory more time spent with the Irishman, and hopefully to be less tired all the time. I have been on this shift for over two years and I have to admit I am exhausted, I am tired of having to go to bed by 7pm in order to get up at 3am, and I am tired of being tired all of the time. I hope this new shift is good, it also comes with an hour lunch, I have not had an hour lunch in years, there is a ton of shopping close to me, I am hoping to get Christmas shopping done in my hour lunch time. Or maybe shopping for me, or a trip to Starbucks where I can sit inside and enjoy my lunch, take my IPad and just relax for an hour, the possibilities are endless!
