My eyes hurt.

Here's a rundown of my past few days...

I woke up Saturday not feeling well at ALL.

I missed the gym, laid (wait, is it layed? I can't think...) on the sofa, whined, and watched cooking shows. Since no one was home but me and the wieners...the whining was only drowned out by Ginger whining louder.

Todd came home, we ate, he played with my step/sorta grand baby* and I fell asleep by 9.

Sunday was errand day since Saturday was a bust.

6:30pm Todd and Whitney's birthday dinner at Joanne's. EVERYONE was there. I'm not going to go into the story of Todd, 7 years old being locked out of the house while Joanne was giving birth to Whitney. Yes, in January...his new birthday present!

I hear Todd wanted to give Whitney back...

Monday was hell.

Piano at 7:45am, work, then I prepped all the food for the 30 some judges I was going to feed for the Inventors Fair I somehow volunteered myself for...then I stayed up until 2:30am to get the yearbook done as far as I could so the Principal can proof it before it goes to print. Oh, yeah, still missing both priests and only 4 other staff members. Ugh.

Wait, what day is it?

Oh, yes, Tuesday...

So did all the printing this morning and ran it to school, got to work late, raced home to assemble all the food for the 30+ people I was feeding, and THANK GOD 2 moms came to help. We got done in an hour and raced to school.

Then at 7pm, when all was running smoothly, I ran and got a bouquet of balloons for a friend of mine that had a radical hysterectomy yesterday and dropped them off with her at the hospital.
She's doing well, they found cancer, but are confident they took everything, so they are hopeful she doesn't need chemo.

8:15pm, left the hospital, went back and picked up all my stuff from school (food was a total hit)...

Oh, did I mention the bio-dad showed up? I guess the fact our "custody police officer" Janey is on vacation is reason to violate all her rules and continually push the envelope. Jack was awesome, he told him, "It's not your day, you can't be here." So, the &^%$*# guy left. I have the best son EVER.

So, drama aside, Todd is still gone. Today is his birthday, so I sent him up north with tater-tot hotdish and a cheesecake last night. I hate that he's gone. It's going to be at least four more weeks. This sucks. He's happy with his job, but I hate being alone. I figured out I haven't spent this much time by myself in 12 years.

12 YEARS!!

Bah, I'm falling over and need to get some sleep. How I ever did all-nighters in college, I will never know, I can't even run on 3 hours of sleep!
