Dear Diary Thursday,

It was another night that I did not get to bed as early as I would have liked, but it was my own fault. I ended up on the phone for a couple of hours with a wonderful friend from my previous employment who was telling me the horror stories of where I use to work. Oh, and how there has started a campaign to get me to come back and a few people have even mentioned it to The Powers That Be. I just don't think that they understand that I have any intention of going back. My work has its times that I want to pull my hair out, but I am still enjoying what I am doing and I am still enjoying the money I am making. Oh, except for this week because I totally screwed up my paycheck! Oh well.....

This weekend is going to be a bit strange. I have not really had a chance to plan anything out, so I think I am going to attempt to "fly by the seat of my pants" and see if I explode or implode or something. I do plan on cleaning, I do plan on yard work, I do plan on laundry....don't know when, don't know what day, don't know if a Bat Channel will be involved or not. All I know is that at some point during the weekend, I plan on taking a really long nap!

Dear Diary Wednesday...

I woke up not feeling really well this morning. I was awakened a little after midnight, sprinting to the bathroom because I was sure I was going to vomit. Thankfully, I didn't. However, I did have the worst burning sensation in my throat. I have tried everything known to man since then to make myself feel better, but nothing is working. Everything that I put in to my stomach just wants to come back out for an encore. I think it is just a good ol' case of exhaustion. I have no one to blame but myself, so I am not seeking pity.

After a day from work, yesterday was just insane. I was in here by 5:50 am and left at 5:30 pm. After work, I had to take my Mom grocery shopping, so I didn't get home until 7:30, hurried and ate breakfast, spent a bit of time with Dylan, went to bed. Thankfully I have a nail appointment today, or I am sure I would be staying late again. Sometimes it is just easier not to take time off!!!

Dear Diary Tuesday....

It was a great birthday weekend for my hubby, Dylan! I was off work early on Friday and he and I went and got our Mom's Day gifts and then we did yardwork. It was hot, I managed to get another sunburn and a bad headache, but we got my yard and my folks yard all finished. Saturday I got up and finished a bit more yardwork for my Dad and then Dylan and I went to dinner and started his "birthday weekend" with going to the Gateway to shop and hang out. Sunday we took his Mom out to breakfast, did some more shopping for his birthday for clothes, went to my Mom's for a little while, then took my Mom out to dinner, and then headed to Saltaire for a concert....which was wonderful other than I know I am truly old because I couldn't stand the screeching of the guitar for more than a few hours. We got home and managed to get to sleep at around 2:00 am Monday morning. After a few hours of sleep, we got up to head to the dentist, and took my Dad. I then had to take my Mom shopping and Dylan did a few things around the house to relax. We had dinner, and yesterday was a bit stressful for me, so I had two beers. I HONESTLY have never slept as soon as I did last night!! It was GREAT!!!

What a wonderful weekend! Dylan had just a wonderful time having his birthday for two full days, shopping, getting a bunch of things that he wanted, and seeing a concert. Here is hoping and wishing that he and I have many, many more of wonderful Dylan birthdays for many years to come!!!
