It's a bright, bright, bright.. Oh wait.

I woke up at 5 am and went to the potty room. I thought it was 6 am, so when I woke up an hour later to see that it was 6 am I thought "wow, I really didn't sleep that long."
It's nearly 9 in the morning and rainy. It's so overcast that I could crawl back into bed if I wanted to and get some sleep, but I won't. Actually, I can't.
I am waiting on a call back from someone I had to leave a message for yesterday. I am not expecting an early call back though. I am going to be calling them back by 2:30 if I still don't get a call back, it's that important.
Which is sort of stressful, but I'll get over it.
What's your day looking like?

I hope he arrives soon. We have spectrum as well. We had to get them to come out a few years ago and do an overhaul for us.

@LindaOHio Ah that's good. Hoping that gets it all fixed and you'll have the service the way you want it. Do you get DVR? We don't as we were switched over from when it was Time Warner Cable and we didn't want to pay more.

That could be stressful to me, too. I’m easily stressed.
I’m exhausted today from going to bed early and waking up late. Sounds crazy.
I have to get my nails done today and go on an errand. If there’s time, I want to stop in at a clothing boutique I discovered last year. Then it’s our Friday date night.

I have been eyeing a clothing boutique that opened up last year. It has some nice pieces in the window, but I know that I could not afford the prices. I just admire from afar, atleast for now.
That exhaustion doesn't sound crazy, it's happened to me too. You get off of a schedule, and your body is tired even if your mind is more active.
It's almost noon. I'll give the man two more hours, but I want to speak to him before he leaves his office at 3:30.

@DianneN It's more frustrating and worrisome for a family member. I am doing this on the behalf of the family member, and he has me so stressed because he is stressed. I am just trying to not let it bother me so much.

@ScribbledAdNauseum Yes, sometimes we are better off not entering certain stores at all.
Who says my mind is more active? I must press on, although I feel as if a nap would be best.
I hope you can get in touch with that man today. The waiting is so frustrating.

I am stuck in waiting for a huge package. Instead I would like to be trudging to the shops to grocery shop, but no, stuck in.
You are so far ahead of us here. It is not even 7AM yet.
Hope your day is fine Amber.

Oh, I hate being stuck in and waiting for a package. I've had to do that several times. Once I had gotten off of work, had a terrible cold and wanted nothing more than to go to sleep (it was 7 am) but had to wait ALL DAY to sign for a package that didn't even need signing for.
I told the driver "I don't need to sign for this?" He said "No Ma'am." I said "I can't believe this!" Then I shut the door, and got online to complain to the provider because I was that irritated.

@ScribbledAdNauseum lol yeah I just mentioned that I would much rather be doing something else. But I must wait in...cant leave anything outside this door here..stone thieves all of them no good leeches around here.
Glad you called to complain. I also did that too with this package.

@TiarasOceanView It's annoying that you have to be up so early and expecting that package just because there are lots of thieving types there. Though I would imagine a 91 lb package would be hard to steal, there are those types that will succeed in looting it.
I hope it comes early in the morning so you can enjoy the rest of your day and not have to stay with a listening ear for the door.

Oh I am glad you are able to have a resting day. I do my shopping during the week when most people are at work. That way I can have most of the store to myself. I am usually amongst the young mothers getting food while their older kids are in school.

@ScribbledAdNauseum I was doing the same when I was a young mother. I shopped when my son was at school.

@thelme55 I think it must be the easiest and simplest way to do it. You can get the things you need without the child asking for more.

The later it gets, the more I suspect I'll be calling them back before they call me. This is the worst day for it, isn't it? Friday is the laziest work day of the week, and especially since I'm calling the government...

Glad you had a sunny and comfortable day there. It's Friday, and so I am not sure whether I'll get the call back or whether I will have to call them. I am hoping they'll call me back.
