awake

Toby has a doctor's appointment today. I think it's at 10 or 10:30...
I have to call once their office opens and find out.
So here I am, awake and soooo tired with a nervousy stomach.
Maybe it's an overactive commitment gene. Or maybe I've hit Issues
one time too many. Because when I know I have a plan, I dread it.
It doesn't matter how fun or exciting the plan is. I just can't relax
because there is a PLAN.
For example, yesterday I knew I had to be home by 4:30 ... and feed
people and dress people and so forth so Richy could be at the church
by 6. So all day I'm panicking as I shop... I kept stopping to look
at my cell phone clock. (no, I don't wear a watch because I can
barely tell time and digitals look too butch for me)
So all day, little panics. Have I spent too long at Target?? Will I
have time for grocery shopping?? Oh NO! Only 3 hours until I have to
be home! and so forth.

It's a neurosis, folks. And when I have a morning plan I wake up
hours early and neurotically watch the clock until I know it's
actually TIME to get ready now.
Sheesh.

at least 9 minutes and possibly 1 hour 9 minutes until I can call the
doctor's office and find out the verdict.... is it 10.... or 10:30....

Mama PC said...

jess, i'll be praying for you and your nerves...

try to relax - don't plan too much on each day... you're still recovering from very stressful experiences....

can someone else do the shopping for you??? would you like that???

some personalities LOVE to keep running and handling things and being totally BUSY all the time - and others (more creative-types) need a bit more relaxed and down-time... there IS a balance that we all need to learn and develop in our lives...

DON'T HAVE TO PERFORM
DNO'T HAVE TO PERFORM
DON'T HAVE TO PERFORM

just bee right now....

loves

jess said...
