(thank God for the FRAZZELED icon)

OMG. I am SO overwhelmed right now. Off the top of my head ...

Today - I worked overnite last nite. Need to sleep soon. Just sent Ave off to school in tears saying "I wish you were like other mommys who dont fight with their kids" ... AND she asked me to "Call Mrs. King (the guidance counselor) so she could see her". I am tired, cranky, stressed & her dilly dallying this AM didnt help. Oh, & when Mike handed me Child support I made a comment about my mortgage going up & he said "Take me back & I can help with it". Yeah, Riiiiiiiiight.

I am freaking out b/c Ave's dance recital is this next Sat. She is in 4 numbers. I knew she needed new Jazz shoes, but the only places to get them are 22 miles 1 way, & 35 miles the other way. I put it off too long. In the MEANTIME, she lost her 1 month old new tap shoes & we need to replace those as well. There is a recital practice Tues nite, & I thought i could get the shoes at one of the places today, after I sleep & she gets home from school. But NO ... they are all closed! So, that means i will have to take her after school tomorrow, b4 rehersal, so that means no sleep for me b4 i work a 13 hr overnite Tues nite.
Plus, each pair of shoes is about $42! Ugh.

My mortgage just went up $169 a month b/c of taxes, I am STILL pissed about that.

So i work overnite this week, Sun, Tues & Wed. 13 hrs each. & need to sleep b4 & after the shifts at some point.

I have renters coming in on Friday ... & her recital Sat nite. I leave on a plane at 4:30 AM for FLA (for a nursing conference) on Sun Am. AND, my renters leave that nite, & new ones come in on the next Fri, b4 I am back from FLA. That means my cleaning lady has to turn the rental over in b/w parties. & she never did it alone b4. Its stressing me OUT.

Lets see, what else? On Sat Am, I need to drop the dogs at the sitters (which reminds me, I need to cancell the tentative booking i did for another kennel) who lives 30 miles away. & drive back into town with all the tourists coming in Sat AM, in time to get Ave 20 miles the OTHER way, to her recital on time. Ave has recital practice tues, & then full dress & make up on Thurs. I will be dead tired that nite b.c i work the nite b4, but have to be at her school at 10:30 for the teachers retirement party, then Ave gets out of school at 11 & then its rehersal that nite. & on friday I am supposed to be going on a 1st date ... I will be a lunatic by then.

I need to get the house ready for rental, the shoes bought, i need to have myself all packed & ready for FLA AND have a bag for Ave for 3 seperate overnites (her dads, a 2 different friends) for the people watching her while I am away. Then my dad comes to town next Tues, stays here with her, & brings her to meet me i FLA - so i need all her FLA stuff & flight stuff packed & ready as well.

My lawn needs to be mowed BIG time. NO time to do it :( I still havent arrnaged a cat sitter for while Im away. I have to get to the Water dept to pay the bill b/c i have a shut off notice for 48 hrs from now. Cant have renters with no WATER. Hello!?!

I need to get dog food & all their meds, & get that organized for the dog sitter. I need to get my OWN scripts filled so i have them for my trip. I need to get my A/c's in the windows b/c hte renters expect a/c.

... I am not even sure what else - i just want to curl up & wake up 2 weeks from now, when its all O-V-E-R.
