I am so tired. Tired because I can't sleep at night thinking of all the things that need doing, will need doing, or what to do to make sure things go right.

And I'm not doing things because I'm tired of doing things, of thinking about them.

Don't worry, I'm not crazy, just stressed.

So many unexpected things have popped up in the last few days: Gizmo needed updates on his shots, so I made an appointment that unfortunately took longer than usual because of another emergency at the vet's. So that took more time from work, which meant I stayed late.

Afterwards I went to Lenscrafters to get new glasses. I tried to kill the hour wait by window shopping until my feet hurt. And then they weren't even ready. And now, I need to go back because I'm having trouble focusing; they must not have gotten the lenses right or something. So that's more time from work.

Normally taking extra time off of work wouldn't be a problem, but I'm trying to make sure things are cleaned up and straight before we leave next week. So I stay late to work on stuff, meaning I get home late, which makes me tired and not want to do the things that need doing.

And then of course we have other things to juggle: work obligations, friend obligations, house stuff, etc.

10 days....we have 10 days...that's just crazy!

Please, please let it not rain!!
