Totally wiped out

Posted by: ST on December 14, 2005 at 12:03 am

I am experiencing one of those times in my life that we all go through and that is just having so much going on that I barely have time to think. I’m a bit overwhelmed right now, quite frankly, and am at the point of exhaustion.

Blogging may be light the next few days as I attempt to handle all that is going on this month, including the continued drama of trying to buy a townhome (talk about STRESS!), two Christmas parties in one week, Christmas card lists (including compiling, addressing, and mailing), Christmas gift buying (including compiling a list, shopping, wrapping, and shipping), catching up on housework (UGH), and getting to know better the new gent in my life (and not necessarily in that order – heh).

Most of the above are things that many many many people are going through this time of the year, but to me personally it’s been overwhelming and exhausting.

(I should also add that I overanalyze everything - not just politics – so that tends to be a factor in terms of my energy level too because I overanalyze everyday things to a point that I exhaust myself LOL).

I’ll still be around this week blogging some, but smackdown delivery will be minimal – *for this week only!* I gotta get my ‘sea legs’ back … or however they say it. After Friday things should be calming down for me some.

Consider this post an ‘open topic’ post … so feel free to post in the comments regarding what’s on your mind about whatever! :)

    Take a moment for yourself, have a glass of wine, kick back and relax. See you soon!

    ST, just do what you have to do. You can’t take care of us and our blog addictions if you don’t take care of yourself first.

    If you need some wine to help unwind, may I recommend some zinfandels from the Rosenblum winery? They’re a little pricey ($20-$30 per bottle), but well worth it. There’s one in particular I had at a tasting that covered my tongue like a warm blanket, with possibly the most perfect balance of fruit and tannin I’ve ever tasted in my life. Of course, I can’t remember the exact vintage even if I did buy a case of it, but after spending a lot of time at the Rosenblum table and comparing their wines to all of the others, I think it’s safe to say you can’t go wrong with anything from Rosenblum.

    And please forgive my bad manners: ST, I hope you have a safe and fabulous Christmas!

  5. Sheesh LC – there you go getting me all curious about wine at 8:30 in the a.m. ;) Thanks for the recommendation!

    New gent? Ooh, it must be that Lorica! Darn him! Darn him to heck!!!

  8. And I told Lorica to wait until I made the official annoucement! Sigh …[-(

    Well, he’s been shooting off his mouth in all the blog commentor’s bars after hours, and I told him to- uh, I mean, that’s what I heard he was doing. I don’t go to those places. I spend all my spare time, er, teaching handicapped children to read, um… down at the animal shelter… ahhh… behind the church. (Ahem) Gotta go, I’m picking up the turkeys for the Christmas dinner we’re making for the homeless orphans.

    Disabled homeless orphans. With AIDS.

    (that stupid Lorica… someday she’ll learn the truth about him…)

  10. Lorica says:

    Yep!!! When you are dating the hottest woman on the web ya just gotta brag about it. Sorry My Love, I keep getting all these questions about why I am smiling so much lately. I couldn’t help myself. To tell you all the truth It is going to be VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS FOR ME!!!! =)) – Lorica God Bless America

    @};- I was all set to propose…

    jk

    Just think of all the little Sister Toldjah and Lorica Toldjah kids to come. They’ll be good little conservative Toldjah children… :-b

  12. Lorica says:

    LOL Bak.
    =))

  13. Lorica says:

    Ohhhh Hey since we are discussing my personal life. I found out today that my job with the Government is moving to Columbus Ohio. Soooooo I will either move with my job, or find a new Government job elsewhere. Mayhaps somewhere in North Carolina. :d – Lorica

  14. Steve Skubinna says:

    No Lorica, you really really should go to Ohio. Don’t worry about packing, I’ll get somebody to send all your stuff to you. In fact, if you wait a minute I think we can send you with your personal effects. In the same crate.

    Bye! That knock at your door is my guys.

  15. Baklava – as long as those kids have Lorica’s brains and my fashion sense, thing should work out ok! ;)

    Steve – LOL!

  16. PCD says:

    Steve, that was me knocking on Lorica’s door.

    Lorica, when you move to Ohio, are you going to participate in the alleged voter fraud? You know, like our Lib friends contend that we do while the dead vote for their candidates.

  17. Lorica says:

    Ohhhh Yes I am bring Ballots from when I was in Wisconsin. I will just “X” thru Wisconsin and write Ohio. Then I can stuff the ballot box in democrat controlled precincts, they would never be able to tell it wasn’t one of their fakes. =))

    AND Hello there is nothing wrong with my sense of fashion. :d Thank you very much. It would be fun to have a little princess to spoil tho. :d – Lorica

  18. PCD says:

    Lorica, there are 11 million illiterate American adults. Just how many are paid to vote Democrat?

  19. Steve Skubinna says:

    PCD, some of them vote more than once. And if a dead illiterate votes Democrat, how do you count that one?
