I'm sooooooooo beat and exhausted.... I don't know about the rest of you, but OMG It's CRAZY around here:!:
I really don't know if I'll make it to xmas eve:lol:
At least, all the work for the preschool christmas concert is done. PHEEEEEWWWW. The concert was a success, and I'll post vids at a later date when I've time to upload them (Mereena was sooo cute LOL)
I've clients coming out of my ears, several new referrals, regulars driving me mad. One newbie that was a no-show. I called her, and she "lost my card" and wanted to rebook for January. I really need that time and was annoyed to have had it wasted. Ah well, had to expect at least one this month, right?
It's 7:12am right now.. having my morning cup of coffee.. wish I was back in bed. Leaving at 9 to fetch the sitter, daughter of a friend, who will also help out and do some chores as I really can't get anything done and my house looks like a bomb went off.:cry:
When I finished last night, I made Saltwater taffy for my xmas baskets, still more to make... so far, 2 kinds of cookies, peanut brittle, banana bread, and the taffy.. All double batches. Still lots to do. THEN gotta put them together.
Presents to wrap. Shopping still to do.
When I think back to this time last year, when I was sad about soooooooooo very many things...
Now business is doing great, and I haven't even time to go to the loo (oh right, better go do that, aye? haha)
Amidst all this craziness.... while I yearn to sleep and sit down on my tookus for 5min by myself.....
I'm thankful. Thankful for all I learned this past year. Thankful for all the support of my geeky mates. Thankful for my client base having expanded. Thankful for my car, and my kids' health.
I mean....remember last year, my thread for giggles about hitting rock bottom? having been bummed out about not getting the job at the adult toy/video store? (this one: http://www.salongeek.com/chit-chat/50792-you-know-you-have-hit-rock-bottom-when.html)
:lol::lol::lol::lol:
So while I am exhausted, functioning on 5-6hrs of sleep at night, and going full tilt all day long until 11pm or 1am even....
I know I'm truly very lucky, blessed, and very fortunate to have the life (as complicated as it is) that I have.
So, since it's unlikely I'll have time later as I'll have collapsed in a heap from sheer exhaustion....
Let me say THANKYOU for everything and HAPPY HOLIDAYS to all of you.
I love you DEARLY:Love:
And for those of you who are at 'rock bottom'... it DOES get better. I've proved it. It's a struggle to get to where you want to be sometimes.. and utterly exhausting.. but you WILL get there! I promise you.
