Can't Sleep!

Wow! It' s 3 A.M. on a Monday morning and I can't sleep. I have bouts with this from time to time. Too much on my mind and can't manage to relax. Trying to type quietly so I don't wake the little's. I think I just need to get it written down and then I will be able to file it away.

I have an aunt who just found out that she has breast cancer. I have an uncle who has prostate cancer. They are married. I need to call my handicapped sister who lives in an assisted living home tomorrow. My brother didn't want my family to join his family yesterday for mother's day at his house. Ouch. Hopefully it was a misunderstanding. One of my dear friends is struggling right now and I can't help her. Makes me sad. We have 2 weeks to finish cleaning up our property before the dirt work has to be done for the house pad. I need to work on packing up my house again.Overwhelming. My cousin's little boy is in the hospital with a heart condition and I'm so sad for them. Another friend is struggling financially and she is scared and overwhelmed.

I need to keep working out. My body is getting very stiff and it hurts if I don't make myself exercise everyday. I have to pick a paint color for the exterior and the interior of the new house. I need to go grocery shopping tomorrow. Trying to make a mental grocery shopping list included with coupons. Sick, I know.

Have to go to the orthodontist this week. Haven't been for awhile and my braces are killing! Wish they were open more than one day a week out here. My car is almost out of gas and can't afford to put more than $20 in it. It takes about $140 to fill it up.Yay. My littlest is having a rough time being obedient and nice. Trying not to spank him, but our little talks have not been working. Made him hug his brother and tell him that he loves him.

My 30th birthday is just around the corner and I'm not very excited. Sad. I feel like I have to adjust my look now. T-shirts and jeans aren't very cute anymore. Kind of frumpy if you ask me.Not a skirt or dress fan outside of church either. Feel like I need to grow up a little bit though. I don't have anymore babies at home so that excuse is gone. We'll see. I think a trip to Rue 21 is in order. They have pretty cute clothes. Need to lose some weight first.

My Mother's Day was lovely. Friday night we made dinner for my mother-in-law and I made chocolate covered strawberries for her and chocolate cupcakes with a strawberry cream filling for everyone else. Saturday we cleaned up the land and I made vegetarian lasagna, salad, rosemary garlic french bread, and the chocolate cupcakes for my parents. Sunday we went to church and my hubby made me ribs, salad, baked potato's, and corn on the cob. I made a chocolate mousse cake. Yum. He got me roses, a new work hat so I don't burn, and some goat leather work gloves so my hands to hurt. Sweet man. A very nice Mother's day indeed.

Need to text my friend tomorrow and check on her. Her hubby said she wasn't doing very well yesterday. Not happy to hear that. I'm a little protective of her. Don't know why. But I worry.
Have to get the kids into the dentist for cleaning's before we move. Need to get Dillon's eyes checked. He says they hurt at school and he has to let them rest.

Need to get the laundry done today. We run out of clean clothes way too fast around here. The kids never seem to have clean jeans or uniforms shirts. The two items they always need. Go figure.

Want to run away for awhile. Want to jump in my car and drive to somewhere relaxing for a week and then drive home and have everything be done for me. That's not too much to ask, is it?
