I rarely complain this often but it is a little over two weeks before I get to go back to California with Brian to celebrate Fourth of July weekend with his family. I just got back from Cali and I still could use a severe vacation. I am starting to wonder if there is such a thing as a quarter life crisis that exists. I am so burned out and so completely irritated by basically everything that walks, talks, cries, wines, rings, blinks, and/or moves. I would just love to go far far FAR away and not have to return to reality for about 3 weeks.
One of the best parts of being at Brian's parent's lake-house is the fact that time stands still - at least that's what it feels like to me. There is no outside pressure to have to stick to any type agenda. The weather is a constant ray of sun and fresh air and I can not fail to mention that the temperature never rises above 85 degrees outside (a huge difference between Dallas/Fort Worth right now). There is complete silence on the streets except for the occasional buzzing of a golf cart here or there and there is no stress to have to do ANYTHING. Your mind is able to relax and you could spend the whole day day-dreaming or whatever else your heart or mind desires.
But back here in reality there is a constant sound of a telephone ringing, someone constantly screeching questions in you ears, the need to rush around to get things finished. Oh yeah, and the start of each day is to the blaring sound of the alarm clock. UGH - just the thought of any one of those things make me want to crawl out of my skin. There are never enough hours in the day and you feel a constant restlessness but yet are completely exhausted – a battle that will NEVER be a win-win situation. There is steady tension that is riding in your back for one reason or another. But let’s not forget to mention the fact that someone makes me look like a complete fool at least once a day. A feeling that could make me run around and scream like a maniac while pulling my hair out. As you can see, I could use a very long vacation.
So, I guess I should apologize for any behavior that might arise beforehand to everyone who is surrounding me. I am almost to the point of losing my mind for the next two weeks and sorry for being grumpy, tired, moody, snappy, and completely off the hinge - just roll it off - I should be back to normal in a couple of weeks.

ReplyDeleteAwww, Sarah I was about to call you last night to vent. You always make me smile and feel better. Brian took me to the Country Club last night but "hot (YOUNG) Blake" wasn't there. I'm guesssing he's in Spain. I took the lexus and put the top down and jammed the whole way there and back. That helped a lot! But yes, I will be seeing you this weekend. We got some works to do. :) Love you Sarah and having someone read my blog always makes things BETTER. See you tomorrow!
