sisabetI am exhausted, but as I type this the second to last CD is burning. This weekend, things were accomplished. I did it - all the Christmas shopping is finished and all that remains is wrapping. I would finish that tonight (this morning?) as well, but I ran out of scotch tape and I cannot face the store right now. I need to leave for work in a few hours - somehow muddle through that, run home and grab the stack of clothes that I just folded, load up the truck and drive to Kentucky. This is all assuming that Dawn feels better tomorrow. She has been really sick, nasty sick, and has spent the weekend in a haze. Which means she is useless to me at this point. Now, I have compassion for her - I really do - but I also have goals and a plan and if she messes up my hard won Christmas victory, for something as silly as an illness, I will not be pleased. All weekend it has been: "I can't keep anything down!" and "I have a fever" and "Oh, God, I want to die!" blah, blah, blah, blah. She is supposed to take the truck in for servicing tomorrow while I am at work. If she is too sick I'll do it on my lunch break. Basically, as long as everyone is well enough to ride, then everything should go off as planned. I don't often make plans, but when I do it is very important that they are followed and there is no deviation. My obsessive-compulsive heart just can't take it.
In other news, I have made progress on my Farscape vid - to the point that I'm actually having to work on it (as opposed to the play I did the first coupla days) so progress has slowed on that. Just in time, cause Dawn just told me the other day she wants me to have Mission Temple finished by January 1st. My boss has reminded me that I have a year-end goal that I have yet to meet and guess what? The year ends this week. I did get the shopping finished, but I still am convinced we will leave half the presents here or something. I did not get my car fixed. A few days ago I was joking with Eunice about my tendency to procrastinate. I decided that if I was a Bond girl I would be Liz Deadline. I even made up a song about her Liiizzzz Deadliiinne - kinda like when Homer Simpson changed his name to Max Power? Yeah - that was me. I would type more but I'm really really tired and need to just sit until work. I haven't checked my email in a few days - so if you wrote to me - I promise I will write back as soon as I can.
