Why Do Vacations Always Do This To Me?
We have 15 days left until vacation and I have a kajillion things to do between now and then. Eric and I have a vacation planned next weekend and I cannot wait. Actually, Eric is speaking at the Western Claims Conference and we are turning it into a vacation. Eric’s mom is watching Allison for the weekend.
This will be the longest we have been away from Allie ever. We leave Saturday morning and do not return to pick her up until Monday night. I know I am going to miss her terribly, but I am looking so forward to reconnecting with my husband. I can hardly stand the wait.
There are so many things to clean and to do the next two weeks. I am overwhelmed with the monumental tasks that lie ahead. We still need to move some things around, finish the garage/office, reassemble the bathroom, in addition to the regular cleaning that needs to be done.
Exercise has been AWESOME! I spent another two hours at the gym: one hour with weights and one hour spinning. I have two more hours planned for tonight. It feels great to be back into an exercise routine and I am really reaping the benefits of my commitment.
I have been getting very frustrated with Allison lately. Nap time was horrendous today. She flat out refused to nap. She kept telling me, “Noo, NOOOO,” while emphatically shaking her head. She is into everything and makes messes that seem quite impossible for someone that size. I hate getting so frustrated. I hate that I get so stressed out. I must stop stressing.

How could I ever get annoyed with that face?
