Monday mornings... YUCK!


I, probably like everyone else in the world, hate Monday mornings. After having a great weekend of relaxation and getting some housework done, waking up at 6:00 am is not pleasant. Today was especially a crappy. I awoke ten minutes before my alarm because I had to use the bathroom, BAD. I apparently drank a lot of water before going to bed. I wanted that extra ten minutes so I crawled back into bed. I had just gotten back to sleep when my first alarm went off. I have two alarms set because I NEVER wake up on the first one. I cussed out the alarm and then went back to sleep and waited for my second alarm. Again the alarm went off and I cussed at it. I turned off the second alarm and went back to sleep. BAD IDEA. I woke up ten minutes later, which means I was already ten minutes behind in getting ready.
I walked into the Post Office and after seeing the amount of mail that had been dropped off this morning I was tempted to cuss again. After organizing all the letter trays, we had 42 feet of mail. Feet of mail is just that 12 inches of letters. It took me and a coworker two hours to sort all the letters. I started the letters at 7 and Jody, my co-worker, started helping me at around 8:30. We were finally finished with boxing the mail at 12:30. Usually it only takes us until 10:00 or 10:30 to get the mail up. Long story short I am exhausted!!!
My weekend was not so eventful.
On Saturday Evan and I had our Valentine's date. We went to Phoenix. We had a great dinner and went to a movie. We watched "Bucket List". This is a movie I would highly recommend. It is so funny. I was laughing so hard. Although the cancer story line was a bit much for Evan. We both were crying at the end of the movie. We had our valentine's date this weekend because on Thursday we will be taking our dogs to Globe for my parents to babysit so we will not be able to have a Valentine's Day. We are going to Texas on Friday for Evan's Peepaw's 90th birthday party.
On Sunday we both sleep in until about 9:30. We didn't get back from Phoenix until after midnight. We relaxed all morning and around 3:00 we decided to finally start doing the things we had planned. I scrubbed the living room carpet and then rearranged the furniture. Evan spent his afternoon digging a trench in the backyard for our composite wood fence to go in. We have been trying to get the fence up since July. We are finally starting to get it done. We finished our separate work, then cooked dinner and did the dishes together. I burnt the crap out of my hand. All in all the weekend was great.
Sorry to have bored you for so long.
