For as much housework as I accomplished today I think that is a personal best.

I totally left work early today. No I didn’t sneak out, but I did leave early. A lot early. Normal people can enjoy doing that. Apparently I can’t. I knew I used to feel guilt if I left early, even if I was actually sick but I thought I might have changed. I haven’t. So when I got home and tried to take a nap (people are always talking about great naps) I of course couldn’t sleep. I have that guilty pit in my stomach. It’s really ridiculous. I should NOT feel bad. I never miss work! I have never called in sick! Ever! I am late probably more than I should be, but I stay late too… I could go on and on trying to justify this. I could. It’s the chatter in my head right now. I think I am going to let the logical side win and try to enjoy the afternoon. It’s a beautiful day. It’s so nice to be home. It’s so quiet right now. I love that, when the house is silent and the only noise is that of birds singing outside.

Now see what I did up there in that last paragraph? I went from raving-OCD-guilt-work issues right to a Mary Poppins-bird-singing thing. I love how crazy I am . Nutty as a loon, I tell you! [imagine cuckoo clock sounds now]

I am home alone on a Friday.

I am home alone doing laundry on a Friday.

I am home alone doing laundry and blogging on a Friday.

It didn’t have to be like this tho. I was totally invited. I just didn’t go. See what happens?

I always hate going back to work after a few days off. This time, after having been feverish and medicated for most days, is a bit harder. First of all, I feel like I have been gone for a month. Secondly, I keep questioning if I am ‘well’ enough. See how the mind works? If I am still sick I can stay home.

I am not sick enough to stay home. *sigh*

Or, just look at the picture. I feel crazy for allowing this holiday into my home this year… But it looks prettier than last year. We are going to add 10 more oversized balls. I like balls.

UPDATE: More in Flickr.

Hello? *looks around* Well, looks about the same here inside the ol’ blog. Shel didn’t throw any wild parties, or if he did he sure cleans up well… Oh wait, that picture is crooked. Hrm…

Anyhoo, it is great to be in my own house posting on my blog the normal way. Feels good, yanno? We actually got home around one-ish. There was quite a bit of housework to drudge through. Lemmee tell you all. 2 cats home alone for a week plus open windows? Dusting and vacuuming galore! They were well taken care of, but it looked like those cats threw a party up in here!! I think we are caught up though. More that caught up. I think we did the chores we missed out on this past week too! Phew! Now it’s off to the store. The cupboards are bare and I am getting bitchy from starvation.

I am sooo behind on my internetting.
