Summer Topper.
*Disclaimer* This post reveals my stupidity in the physical form and just rambles on about nothingness. Read at your own risk but don’t say I didn’t warn you.
Oh boy. I’m officially exhausted. I thought I had hit exhaustion Saturday night, then I had Sunday morning waking up to a straightener that had been on for 24+ hours. Oops. I thought that was the end. Ha. Then Sunday afternoon came along and I hit a realization of something I did or better so, something I didn’t do and it took me that long to realize it. I’m not easily embarrassed but I can honestly say this is something that proves my complete exhaustion after this week/after this summer. Most of my cami’s are the clingy kind — don’t move around, I’m not constantly pulling it up – the kind I like. Well…not sure how it happened but somewhere in the getting ready routine, I forgot a bra. Yep…I did. Went to church, went home, ate lunch, played with nephews…still didn’t notice. As I was driving to the house that I am house sitting at it hit me…the feeling of something is missing. I investigated. Surely it was missing. I thought maybe I had taken it off when I switched clothes for lunch but that didn’t make sense. I was trying to make it less of a blow — like maybe I didn’t actually go ALL morning without an essential. Yeah, I know anyone reading is in disbelief. Almost 24 years old…it’s true. I pray THAT is the topper of the summer — I can’t imagine doing something more stupid than that,,.knock on wood. As far as I know, no one really noticed – not sure if anyone would have said anything if they did. How do you say that to a person? Ha, I’m an idiot. I know my mom didn’t notice, out of anyone – I’m sure she would have openly said something….so it must not have been that horrible. No, no…I’m not making excuses. As much as you reading are in disbelief, so was I..so AM I. So if putting deodorant on outside of my shirt or leaving the straightener on wasn’t enough (did I mention I’m not even at my house, so I could have burned someone else’s house down?)…why wouldn’t I go to church without a bra on? Thanks God for keeping me on my toes.
I often invision forgetting to open the garage door and backing up…I hope that’s not the next thing, especially because I’m house sitting and I’ve already mistakenly left the dog out all night. Ha, one failure after another. I’m unsure how or when my summer got that busy. I know summer doesn’t end until the end of August but I think summer events have finally come to a halt. As far as schedule goes, I’ve really got nothing except for the hanging out with friends thing going for me (which isn’t stressful…at least not anymore). The only thing looming over my head is finishing the wedding video but that’ll get done this week and I can concentrate on other things.
I’m a bit disappointed that it isn’t done already and feel bad that I haven’t sent it off to them but only a little bit. They hired me 2 weeks prior and my summer had already been seriously booked at that point. Once that is done, I can sell my computer – get a new one that will fit my life on it. It’s that feeling of holding on and holding on knowing the end of craziness is in sight…like college exams. I was thrown for a loop this weekend when I was in charge of a reception area – didn’t mentally store enough energy for that…it was fine, it got done and it looked pretty good. Just hadn’t prepared myself correctly. I’ve always been told that shedding is a sign of a stress and over the past months I have randomly taken pictures of amounts of my shedding but this morning was by far the worst. I thought I’d share the photo because I can –
Gross, I know. That’s literally from running my fingers through my hair. Anyway, combine the busyness and the stress that comes with that with the lack of sleep and you’ve got a tired me. Not emotionally or spiritually tired – mostly just physical. Ha, I know this really has no point as far as posts go…even as I write, my eyes are watering up, not from crying but that’s just what happens when I get overly tired. It’s weird I know.
I don’t remember the last time things were so go-go-go but without a doubt, I’m looking forward to some serious downtime. Kind of. I know downtime is relative and I honestly get bored if I’m not doing something. I don’t know details but I’m pretty sure I will be coaching come the winter…crazzzzzy. We’ll see what that does with my schedule with work and such. I remember often leaving school at 4 or 5 for basketball games — maybe I’d just go into work early those days. Other thoughts whirling around…BSF will be on Tuesday nights, hopefully we don’t have too many Tuesday night games but I’m almost certain most games are on Tuesday. It sounds like Anna and I will be continuing our every other month thing with Sunday school, which honestly is a good commitment and that’s on top of the other things we’ll be doing for WCBC. I won’t be taking on a small group – I feel semi-bad about it but do not want to overcommit myself.
Sooo bring on the Fall – I’m ready for it. I’m wondering if it will be as busy as summer – I can’t imagine that it will be. Was summer just busy because it was summer? I guess that just doesn’t make sense to me. Oh well, bring on FALL. It’s just happens to be my favorite of the 4 seasons by far and I missed a real Fall last year due to being in California. So I’m ready.
Dude. If you read this, I’m sorry…it was literally pointless and all over the place but I did warn you upfront.
