where in the hell does the time go ?

mornin peoples -
how's it goinin?




here? well, i can't complain. actually i can. and most likely, somewhere in this post, i prolly will. it's not intentional you know. it's just my nature. it just happens. sometimes it seems to be a bit therapeutic for me, yet, at times, i know it gets a bit nauseating. i apologize. apparently tho, most of y'all are used to it by now. those who have - or had - a problem with it, are long gone by now. what can i say? ore vois. yeh i know, i don't spell that right -- i have been corrected - but i like the way i spell it.

so anyhow-- that isn't why i'm writin today. i just came in to mention the fact that time has totally gotten away from me. i mean as in losing total concept of time. i would say and space -- but no. i do know where and who i am. even though i'm sure some of you might question that at times. i think that may have only literally happened to me once in my life :))

seriously though. i think i mentioned that yesterday, i had to knuckle down and play catch up in soulland. i had gotten so far behind in business stuff here i surprised even myself that i was able to get even close to up to date. but i did. and in so doing? i opened up a five gallon can of worms. ERG. for real.

one of the major things i came to realize was that our vacation i have been talkin about for maybe the last two months? that i still was thinking was at least two weeks from now? is not two weeks away -- but -- FIVE DAYS away. OMG. we are no where close to prepared to hit the road in five days.

where in the hell did the time go? i hadn't made the dog boarding reservations. i hadn't bought - or administered the animal flea medicine. (Eevee has an awful flea allergy right now-- the kennel will only make the fleas worse-- she will literally be left alone to chew herself apart there.) we haven't gotten the float tubes , or the pull tube dug out of the garage yet. i haven't got the travel budget together - or bills and prescriptions organized ahead yet. it was literally a drowning feeling yesterday as i sat amidst a sea of TO-DO's. and MUST-Do's. wanna know the worst of it? or seemingly so? i wasn't even SURE of our cabin reservation days! am i not THE most responsible person you have ever known in your entire life? i was literally ashamed of myself.
BUT -- i am ON track. does that surprise you? nah. tell me it doesn't. surely by now - y'all have seen me in situations like this before? i may panic when i find myself buried in disasters of my own creation -- but do i not dig myself - and the soul clan right back out in a flash? i amaze even me sometimes. then again, there are times that i allow myself to be sucked into the rip-tide and stay there until someone else - such as soulman , pulls me out and performs CPR, until i can function again. but this time -- i am on a roll, and so far , so good.
i made the dog reservations, confirmed the cabin reservations, got the money situation, and bills all taken care of, got r/x's ordered, dr appointments made. and some other stuff. and the rest - i will take care of today. ahhhhhhhh.
the sweet smell of moving sloth mold in the air.

about the dr's? one is just a regular monthly follow-up. the other is with neuro. just so ya know Sis... the everlasting migraine? still a thorn in my side. ok a knife in my head. i get seen the day before we head out. no one should ever have a head ache for over two weeks runnin. so i'm goin in. if i get any news i shall pass it along. of course - i don't expect to know anything til i get home -- 6/29.. even if they do have time to do a scan before i leave - it takes time for the results.

so --- on that note-- i have a very busy day ahead -- so i shall see ya later peoples-
happy humpday !

PS -- LOOK how GOOD Skelly is lookin these days ! this is your donations at work !

hi donna !
i don't think it's my neck -- altho it does hurt too. this one began as a kinda 'cluster headache.' i puked every five minutes for about seven hours straight!! since then it has varied in degrees of pain.. between nagging to agonizing. but not as bad as it was the first night. i have had them that bad only like three times.. the first time i rushed to the hospital.. but they didn't treat it as a emergency so since then i just suffer thru-- but it never hung on this long before.

who knows?

but yup-- fun will be had -- by all :))

HUGS back

SOUL said...

Just checking in. Sounds like all is well! Time of course is of our creation, we have more control over the speed of time than we realize.

Donna said...

OK, it only took you a couple of paragraphs to get to the complaining part! Hahaha, we KNEW it was coming. Like a freight train 'round the bend. It's all part of your charm, LOL!

Yeah, one of the real drags of a vacation is working yourself to death to prepare for a week of relaxation. How does any of that make sense?! Ha!

Hope you get to feeling better. Headaches are no fun a'tol. (See your misspellings are affecting me in an adverse way.)

Skelly is looking good!

Cheryl said...

I can't imagine having a headache so bad. I'm gonna consider myself to be really lucky on that one.

Where is this vacation to? Sounds like someplace fun. You get to enjoy time on a boat. Nice. And you always get what needs to get done, done. My vacay is in 8 days. My dining room table is starting to get cluttered with stuff I'm taking. Almost time for the lists to come out. I couldn't do it without.

You left a comment on FB that you didn't have a link to my blog. Click on my name here :))

And you know I visit you here. See me?

What are ya'll planning to do on all your other trips?

Vacations ARE tiring. I need a list and a vacation now to get over mine :)
I have some stupid termite inspector coming today and my house is in shambles.

Do you have to drive by my house to get to Tenn. ?

Love me

Just stopping by and telling you that I still read your post all the time. Hope you have a great vacation. I know you will get it together sometimes reaizing the time is a nice kick in the butt to get you on track. Your doing it be proud.

Debbie said...

Wow. You have been busy. If I have one thing to do I always put it off until it builds into a frenzy. I hate that I do it too. We sound alike LOL...Duh.

I lived with cluster headaches from age 15 until about 7 years ago. Pure holy hell. I don't know if quitting using Visine or drinking beer stopped them, but I'm thankful.

I know your vacation is going to be terrific!!
