Scratch all that. Woke up and I sat on the bed for 15 minutes before I could move. I ran errands all day the day before and I was very tired when I went to sleep. So just before drifting off, I had my morning all set and ready to go.
Got the energy to slowly get dressed and grab me a cup of coffee. From there, it all feel apart. The errands I was supposed to get done? Ha! Right out the damned ole' window like a bird in flight.
Across the street at the apartment's meeting room, a barber school of kids learning how to cut hair was cutting hair. I knew they were going to be there as a flyer was sent out the week before. What I didn't know was they were BRAND new cutters of hair.
I asked if they were doing men's and they said yes, so I ran back and told my husband to go over there immediately and get his hair cut before others showed up. In the 5 minutes it took for him to get there, all 5 hair stations were full and 5 people were waiting in line. They told him to come back in an hour and it would be his turn.
I thought, oh boy, I sure hope it doesn't take long to cut his hair. It did. Fifty minutes later, he came home and sent back over there to get my hair cut. The door was locked - I was too late. Well the lady let me in-I would be the last one.
I sat there for 20 minutes talking with everyone before someone asked me why I was there. I told her that I was waiting to get my hair cut. The boss over the new hair cutters looked at them. Half of them had already cleaned up and put away their gear.
So he asked me, what type of cut are you needing? I told him one that will only take you about 10 minutes to do. The outline of the cut was still there, I just needed it trimmed of dead hair. Ten minutes later I was done but by then, It was 1:00 in the afternoon. I had planned to be in bed reading my book with a fully belly from breakfast well before then.
Like I said... the day didn't go the way I had planned. I nixed washing and drying of clothes and bed linens and nixed going to the grocery store.
All was NOT WELL in Peri Land by this time. I was tired, cranky, and not in the mood to deal with anyone with an attitude that was matching mine at that time. Thank God I didn't have to. So instead I went to the Tacqueria and bought lunch and dinner tacos and came home.
I got home it was 3:00 pm. And so the rest of the day, I've just been in... oh... I don't know... a place that I can't describe. It's a place that one feels when plans go awry and you want to scream and shout at the world and cry like a 6 year old at the same time with frustration. THAT kind of place. I just... well... was fed up with today.
So, now it's after 10:00 pm, I still haven't picked up my book as of yet. I'm at that stage again where I'm so tired that my body feel that prickly numbness all over - I think people called it exhaustion. And that's what I feel. And I know when I'm this tired I have a hard time sleeping. So I took a sleeping pill and hopefully will be kicking in soon. Need to wind down and allow my body to relax.
Not only that, I just need to get myself out of that "place" that I've been in all day and wake up in a better mood tomorrow. Football game is on at noon and I'd like to watch it. Hopefully it will be a good game and a good day tomorrow...
