So, it’s 7:49 am cdt and I’ve been up for over an hour. This is so not me! Oh well, the volunteer job is going great, I’ve only got one step left in the grant process, and I have a few leads on paying jobs. I just wish I didn’t have to get up with sun to do it all.

I have been productive this morning though I’ve made coffee, the cats are fed, the litterbox clean, the cat room floor swept, the dog fed, fresh water down for everyone, the fish tank is almost full again, all my emails are read, I’ve showered, and rescued the load of laundry I forgot late yesterday. I think I just made myself tired typing all of that. Now I’ve just got to get dressed, do my hair, throw on a little makeup, and drive to work!

Miss Muffin is not sure she’s loving this, as she is used to having me up with her at night, and there were a few tears when I wouldn’t watch Penguins of Madagascar with her late last night. Guess what Mom will be doing when she gets home from work this afternoon. We also have to go to the library and probably the grocery store.

Now that I’ve bored everyone to tears with my little rambles, I will try to find something fun for tomorrow. TTFN

So, today was Skittles first day back with her fabulous meme Heads *or* Tails and I missed it. I missed my Tuesday Teaser as well. It was just one of those days. The garage needs to be cleaned so I will be able to park the car in it when the really ugly weather arrives. The munchkin needs to be homeschooled and read to and played with. The groceries need to be bought, the laundry done, the house cleaned, the meals cooked, and the dishes washed. And, there is that 50,000 word novel that I’m getting behind on!

Today just became one of those days where I couldn’t do it all and do the blog stuff as well. I feel bad when I don’t get out here and participate; but there really are moments when it seems overwhelming. I’m trying to give myself a break I don’t want to get to the point where I was last spring when I just scrapped it all and quit blogging, I need to find some kind of balance. I’m just not sure where to start.

I’ll warn you now, there probably won’t be a Wordless Wednesday tomorrow, unless I’m suddenly inspired or the day sprouts extra hours; but I will at some point find my way out here and post something about something. Who knows I might even find a photo to go with it all. And next week I promise I’ll be there for Heads *or* Tails.

So I’m sitting here thinking about what I’ll post for the coming week and I realize that I have posted everyday in the month of September so far! So it becomes imperative that I post today to keep the streak going. Suddenly the well runs dry, not just for today, for the rest of the week as well.

So here I am writing about nothing hoping to come up with something. I mean I could whine about the rain; but I’ve done that already. I could post a few pics of the Mississippi, that always fills space; but it’s been raining too much to go and get more pics. I could recycle a few pics from the zoo; but I don’t feel like working with photos today. Gosh I am boring.

I guess this little whine fest will have to be it for today and I will go and try to come up with something a little better for tomorrow, and the rest of the week. Wish me luck!
