How much can one person take?

Dare I ask that question?


I know I'm not the only one who thinks this is a semi-regular basis, right?  Most days are good days, for the most part...especially after 5.  But when the misery follows me home, I'm ready to crack or run away and hide!

If you don't know me, I am a wife, mother, office manager and many other titles that I could throw in here...including chef, organizer, laundry girl, housekeeper, etc.  My ideal vision of my life is being a stay at home mom, working with my son, growing my own vegetables, cleaning house, baking and cooking.  Perfect!

Instead I work in the craziest office on the planet, with the most special people ever.   My day is literally me being BOMBARDED with emails and calls wanting me to drop everything I'm doing to help someone....like NOW.  I actually don't mind the majority of what I do, I am naturally drawn to helping people.  I enjoy it very much.  BUT (and I mean BUT) there are the people that call in to tell you exactly what YOU should be jumping through hoops to do for THEM, no questions asked.  Unfortunately there are lots of these folks.  They are rude, they are mean and most of all they are persistent.  These are the people that make my job not so fun. Add into this equation and total lack of organization mixed with a bit of A.D.D. and what I like to call "selective forgetfulness".  Oh wait!  I forgot the extra serving of Delusions of Grandeur....it would make a sane person sit in the corner and rock back and fourth.

Today as you can probably tell has been an incredibly difficult day.  Work was busy only to be followed by a financial "surprise" when I got home.  I had a good cry, found a solution and moved on.  I guess that's all I can do because I certainly do not need "Wonky Face" (aka Bell's Palsy) coming back anytime soon.

Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day...after all it is FRIDAY!!!  Woot Woot!
