I've got five dollars

You know that song, the standard? Everything I've got belongs to you? Love it.

But everything I've got is pretty much committed right now. Honestly, I try thinking of something to post and there is so much in my head I don't even know where to start.

At work I am trying to tie up loose ends, because we are leaving for Alaska in EIGHT DAYS PEOPLE! How in the world am I going to be ready for this trip?

At home I am shoveling snow while the blizzard continues and the messes multiply.

I am slowly, slowly reading Harry Potter - there is just not that much reading time but it keeps me sane!

I am trying mostly not to think about what happens after we get home (Z going back to S) because I don't have time to panic and cry.

I am marveling that G has said not a single word about all the things that have shown up at our house lately as I shop online to alleviate my stress. In fairness, they are work clothes and wedding presents and wedding clothes. It's not like I'm buying stuff we don't need.

I am chipping away at tasks like the post office and the dry cleaner and the tire shop. These sometimes overwhelm me.

I am frustrated that the DVD player is not working. What am I supposed to do with all these Netflix movies? And what will I watch while I fold laundry?

I am trying hard to take better care of me so I don't lose it completely.

You are doing well of keeping your sanity- at least, that's how it sounds from your writing. If you are like me, writing it down (or typing it, as the case may be) helps a lot. I hope you are doing better. Hang in there, Honey!

The thinking about the planning and prep are always worse than the actual planning and prep. You seem like a girl who knows how to multitask a think or two. I betcha you're good to go in a week.
