I need rehab

This week is going to be a really chaotic week (just the kind of stress I need right now, huh?).  I realized this morning with Hubby on a business trip until tomorrow night, I needed all the energy I could get, so I fell off the wagon.

Funny, I even went through caffeine withdrawal headaches and everything only to start drinking again.  HA, I really do know what junkies feel like now, I just never thought I'd be a tea junky.  I mean, my father was an alcoholic and druggy, so I have the addiction gene, but tea?  Even if it is imported South African tea and the absolute smoothest, yummiest stuff I've ever tasted in my life, looks like I could give it up for awhile for the sake of a possible ulcer right?  Yeah, apparently not.  But, on the positive side, at least it is just tea!

Hubby left for a business trip this morning and will be returning late tomorrow evening.  Tomorrow during the day, I get to start the day off with Cupcakes 4 month checkup (complete with shots), my gastro doc appointment tomorrow afternoon.  Wednesday is church and preparing for a craft show on Thursday.  Thursday is the craft show.  Friday is reserved for any test the gastro doc wants to do.  Saturday is Cupcakes 3 month...er...4 month pictures that we never got around to.  Sunday, church.  Somewhere in between all this I have to find time to do Thanksgiving food shopping, take down my ...ahem...Halloween decorations, and finish the NANO, which take precedence for me right now since I don't do much for myself these days and I'm only about 6000 words away from being FINITO!

Thankfully, my awesome mother-in-law has offered to take my kiddos next Wednesday, which I will have to be doing some cooking and such for Thanksgiving at my mom's (just stick a fork in me, I'll be done for sure after that!), and hopefully be able to get a few days of rest while family is up from Florida and will no doubt want to see the kids.  As it stands, I'm going 90 to nothing for the next week and a half, so if you see me around this blog after tomorrow (I'll post a doc update), rest assured it's 100% certain I'm avoiding doing something far more important.

If I decide to be responsible, Happy Thanksgiving!

I tried to quit Pepsi once. It was some kind of ugly.

I have done online shopping for all my requirements for Thanksgiving, it's easy & savvy too.

I skipped coffee one morning when I was on vacation in Disney World. I almost died. (Not an exaggeration) I'm a total caffeine junkie.

If you find out that you NEED to give up the caffeine you can. I have not had any caffeine in 10 years now. You don't miss if after that initial year or so.

Sounds like you are super busy. I'll talk to you sometime this week and let you know our fate. We find out everything this Thursday.

Okay, seriously....you've got too much going on. Can any of that be changed? You are going to run yourself ragged...and get sick!
