Plans this weekend…
.................zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Oh my gosh, I am so tired. I feel like a walking zombie. I was going to take the girls in my life (Angela, Sister, Sweet Girl, Jess and all of their friends) to see SATC this weekend, but I just can't do it. My body is SCREAMING at me to get some rest, already.

I pushed myself when I shouldn't have, even though I know better. I keep thinking I'm going to one day either:
1. Become magically healthy and able to do things most people can do
or
2. Learn my lesson, already and get over hoping for number 1.

When I go into the office, it's a 13 hour a day commitment. I get at the train station at 5:30 a.m. and arrive at 6:00 or 6:30 p.m., depending on which train I take. Granted, riding the train is not labor intensive, but....

Normally I only go in on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but this week, I came in on T-W-Th, because I had work commitments. I treasure the fact that I can telecommute three days a week, but I treasure it even more when I realize what going in three days in a row does to me. That makes me feel like such a loser to even say that. Wahhh, poor me- go into the office three days in a row. Bleh- get a life, Lori.

So, this weekend I'm going to lay low and pray for rain. Why? Because if it's sunny outside I will feel guilty for not being in my garden taking care of stuff. Being gone for two weekends (and having the weekend before that being rainy) has caused havoc on my precious garden. My garden requires a commitment of at least one full day a week of gardening, otherwise it runs rampant.

Speaking of running rampant, my very special friend with the same middle name told me that her pastor rented goats to clean out his blackberry vines in his back yard. Isn't that a hoot? I mentioned it to The Hubs, because those blackberry vines in the back are the bane of my existence. He thinks it's a great idea and wants to look into doing that. If they like stinging nettle, we're definitely going to do it.

Goats... who knew?

Just be sure the goats don't go for the stuff you want to KEEP in your yard.. I don't think they discriminate....

Take care of yourself and although I'm not praying for rain, maybe overcast so you won't feel guilty about staying on the couch and putting your feet up.

Hugs,
anne

I hope you have a lovely and super relaxing weekend! I'll bet Sex and the City will be just as good on the small screen as it is in the theater wink

And goats? Really? If you do that, we must have a viewing party, because that is just something you don't see every day!

Those blackberry bushes are evil doers. Serious business. They'd take over the world if the world would just let them.

Hope your weekend is relaxing in excess.

Well, please be specific when you pray for rain, we're going camping and if it rains, we're inviting ourselves over to your place. lol
Rest up, you deserve it! (((Ris)))

Hahahahaha Sam! You are too funny. ba-a-a-a-a-ad

We have actually talked about getting a goat. If the neighbor can have 8 barking dogs, why can't we have a goat? (I know they sound like a crying baby, but that's beside the point.) At least a goat would produce something usable, milk and meat.
We used to have goats and milked them. I made butter, cheese, yogurt, cream cheese, plus weaned my daughter onto goat's milk. She really did fine. I want chickens too.

(((Ris)))
you get feeling better, I am sad you are feeling low.
I WISH FOR:
Rain for RG
Sunnnnnyy days for S&H
keep chanting this.

I can't imagine something that productive like black berries taking over. I have some nameless thing that doesn't produce fruit taking over my back yard.

I was feeling punk all day too. I finally gave in and slept, now I won't sleep well tonight.

GET WELL, SWEET FRIEND. SATC?
