Yesterday, I had a little procedure done at the hospital. They gave me two cortizone injections into my spine - for which, in turn, they gave me two days off of work to relax and let the medication work it's job. My husband seems to have had other things in mind.
Although I had repeatedly told him how much I was looking forward to finally being able to sleep in this morning (I had school and work over the weekenend), it didn't seem to matter much. When I asked him to take the dogs out this morning for me, he made it very clear that he didn't have the time and that I was going to have to get up and do it myself - also knowing that I'm one of those people that once I get up, there's no way I'll ever get back to sleep. So, I took them out- and then (since he was running so late), he found the time to yell at me for being lazy and not getting the house cleaned or the laundry done fast enough - although I'm sure he meant "for not cleaning and doing the laundry in the 3 minutes a day that your back isn't in excruciating pain". Whatever.
So, I've done a few loads of laundry, re-organized the pantry, cleaned our bedroom, ect- a short list, but you have to understand that I was without power for 3 hours and couldn't vaccuum and stuff. Hope this pleases his majesty.

Finding Myself
Usually I feel like I'm living two different lives- but lately, I feel like I've been living like 4 of them. Obviously, there's the weight-obsessed/ where can I find a bathroom life that only people who know me as "Smaller" can either know about or understand. Then there's the workaholic - where at work I'm known as the super-organized super-all together person who has everything under control at all times. Then, at home, when it's just me and the hubby, I'm the lazy watch-tv girl. At home, when we have friends over, I'm the Martha Stewart of the bunch. Oh, and lets not forget the golden granddaughter, successful daughter, straight-A student, ect ect. I feel like the all the different personalities I've created for myself are not crushing me.
I really think that's one of the reasons I haven't been on here as much lately, it's just another person that I sometimes don't have time to be.
Today, I woke up and I just knew I couldn't get through work today. Long story short, I called in sick so that I could just sit back and relax. The problem is, when you play all of these different roles- I'm not sure who I am when I'm by myself.
