The Stress of Life


Oh life can be super stressful sometimes. There are times where I just can not shake the stress off either. Normal day stress I seem to strive in like never being late to work, can I get five dogs done in four hours, getting the dishes done before someone stops by the house,etc. Normal stuff I can do and deal with every day.... It's when it all piles up and I really start stressing out that my body just breaks down. This week I got to that breaking point. When I break, I don't want to do anything and my attitude is (pardon my language) "to hell with that". It's causes me to not get anything done!! 
Tuesday that was me! And that was not the best timing in the world.... So instead I have left everything for today and tomorrow to get done. Want to see my list?

To Do List Before Friday & Saturday
*Clean the House (thankfully not too bad)
   - the Bathroom...with three kittens in there, they make a ridiculous mess
   - Finish the Laundry.... Three more loads to go
   - Clean out the Fridge... So things don't go bad while we are gone for a week
   - Clean Back Room.... So Kristie, Todd and baby Lilly can sleep there
   - Vacuum entire house... Four pets = endless chore
   - Clean our Bedroom... So I can like being in there ;)
* Finish altering my dress for Sister-in-law's wedding three days after Christmas
* Wrap all our presents... Turned out to be a lot!!
* Finish Work's Secret Santa present (which should have been done a week ago)
* For Heaven's sake, I still need to pack for the next week

To top that list off... Tuesday, I somehow ran over a piece of metal that was about half a sheet of paper size and completely destroyed the passenger tire. So yesterday, I took my van in to get a new tire. Come to find out, which I had a sneaky suspicion about, the van needed new brakes. Of course not just new brake pads but the new rooters and calipers too! Making our total come to 700 dollars! Prefect timing for the Holidays right! Thankfully we have an account with them so it's all good. Just of course not what we were wanting to have happen considering we are leaving for Great Falls in a couple of days and then to Utah all within a week and family in town tomorrow!

So my body has broken down... I don't want to be at work, my face has broken out, I have a huge cold sore, and oh so much to get done tonight.

Hopefully everyone else's weeks are going better than mine!
