Blog Block
October 30th, 2007

I guess it’s like writer’s block, but blog block. I sat here for ten minutes staring at the screen and wondering what the hell I was going to blog about today.

Then I thought about what was on my mind. Well, what’s not on my mind?

Kids, work, report cards Friday, when the 15 YO will finish driver’s ed, the fact that I have to make my house spotless for my MIL’s visit, my expanding waistline, my eczema breakout from eating Chik-Fil-A, it’s Tuesday so the trash needs to be taken out tonight, my desk covered in papers, the 11 YO’s zipper broke on his jacket on a 32 degree morning, and… my trip to Vegas next week.

Sometimes I think about so much it becomes too much and I can’t focus. Like now. So I need to take one of that laundry list up there and focus on it.

What do you think I should focus on?

I knew you’d say that.

I am off to Vegas next Thursday for a romantic, fun getaway with just me and DH. I’m trying NOT to think too much about it or I’ll get over-anxious. It’s coming sooner than later and of course, the trip itself marks a milestone in my life.

40.

That’s 40.

FORTY.

*sigh*

I’m not quite sure if it bothers me or not, but just the fact that I’m hitting that middle-aged area makes my stomach cramp. I mean, where did the last 20 years go?

Anyhoo, so my blog block meandered through my overactive brain and hopefully entertained you, dear reader. Now I’m off to blowdry my hair and go to work.

P.S. Viva Las Vegas!

  1. You know, 40 isn’t middle-aged anymore because most people are living longer. So really, you’ve probably got another 5-7 years before middle-age rears its head. Maybe you can just view this as the rehearsal?

    Enjoy Vegas!


  2. Well I’m 45 (can’t believe I just typed that and I won’t repeat that ever again!!) and I don’t feel middle aged yet……ask me again tomorrow!!

    Have a fantastic time in Vegas!!!
