Happy Friday! Although it's not super happy for me. I'm feeling a little overwhelmed with everything going on--I have so much to do and it seems like not enough time to do it...I guess everyone feels that way sometimes, but add to that I took a BAD spill last night, so I'm bruised and lacerated literally from head to toe, and I'm not feeling productive.
It started out so innocently...let the chickens out of their coop and run while the Hubbs and I putter around, feeding them, playing around with the dogs, putting some treats in the chicken yard, etc. It was getting dark, so we started rounding them up to put them back in the coop. I was chasing (not really running, as some of you know, I don't DO that), but scurrying and herding my girls into their yard, when I tripped over my own slipper (who the hell chases chickens in slippers!?) and fell face first into the wooden privacy fence. When I say face-first, I literally mean that my forehead, eyebrow, eyelid, cheek, jaw and neck are cut and bruised and swollen ridiculously. As well as both elbows, my hand, my knee, and both feet. Not sure HOW all of that happened. I guess on the pavers. My poor Hubbs was beside himself. So guess who won't be chasing the chickens into the coop from now on? They can stay out all night if they want to I guess.
This weekend I have a lot to do. Finish the decorating, clean up the house for Thanksgiving dinner, shop for the food, buy a few things for my classroom, and just generally run around like crazy. I am having lunch with my friend Marybeth, and having a pedicure (if my feet can take it). I might do a little baking too if I can find the time. I'd like to send cookies and treats to my son Brett in Japan (in the navy), and my daughter Hillarie in Delaware.
Okay, my face hurts, which is not pleasant, so I think I'm going to try to get a little rest today before the weekend madness starts. I hope you are having a happy Friday, at least.
