Time off?

its good. at times. i think winter makes me lazy, or something. i don't really have the energy to do stuff anymore. i know that i should be doing something, but i can't force myself to do it.

but back to time off. the first week was good, now its mediocre. now i'm in charge. no, i don't have to be. but somebody has to. do you have any idea how physically/mentally exhausting it is to run a house? drag myself out of bed, let bruno out, feed the dogs, make coffee, get ready for school, start the car, go to school, get the mail, deposit dad's cheques, plan supper, buy groceries, drive home, make supper, keep house clean, do laundry, take out garbage, take grandma and grandpa their mail/ check that they're ok, water plants, check dehumidifier, listen to yellow pump, answer daily call from neufelds :), collapse on couch, lock doors, drag myself to bed, have nightmares about basement flooding/ lane filling with snow/ car quiting on allison while driving, rinse & repeat.

ok, yes, i might be exaggerating (might be), but still. I'm tired. And it doesn't seem like any amount of time off will help.

Thanks for the recommendation. I pretty much don't have a choice to get a new iPod now because my old one has stopped working completely. So I'm looking forward to some sleek, sexy, nice display screen, shaking fun!

I hope you guys are enjoying the house to yourself. It's probably a blast. My parents are lame and never leave the house, so I never had the chance to have the house to myself for a period of time like that.

Enjoy!f
