OK, now I have heard everything. On the way to Randy’s office a little while ago, delivering 30 homemade enchiladas for him to share with his co-workers, I was listening to the radio. All of a sudden this commercial comes on that asks if sometimes I had the “feeling that my body wanted to sleep, during the hours that I was suppose to be at work?” Well, who hasn’t? It went on to say that this is now a diagnosed sickness which can be treated with medicine, after, of course, consulting with your dr. about “stress work disorder. So…..I headed home to call my dr. to tell him that there are many times that I am baking, cleaning and hauling grandkids to the park to feed the fish, when it is 100 degrees outside, or cooking for a family of 10 for a memorial service, all the while, unbeknownst to me, Randy has volunteered me to make enchiladas for the office, yes, all in the same day, but, all I want to do is sleep. I cannot believe that I have been under the impression that I was just in overload and needed to be whisked away to the Bahamas for a week. NOW, I know that that is not what I need, I just need to take a pill and I will never be sleepy while completing my chores. How wonderful is this. So am getting off the computer, finish my meal to take to the sweet friends, complete my laundry, go water the plants outside before they wilt, go to Jaden’s awards ceremony at 2:30, stop at the grocery to pick up a few items that I need for the company coming tomorrow night, deliver the meal, come back and make dinner for Randy, fold the laundry, work with him outside tonight in the yard (yes, he likes me outside with him so we can talk) and just thinking about how much more fun this will all be, after I get that magic little pill which will keep me from getting tired and sleepy….wow, maybe now I can add more activity to my list of chores…….I wonder if I will be so “unsleepy” that I will then need a pill to let me fall asleep at night? Hum……….
