Simply Exhausted

I tell ya, the last few weeks have just been exhausting. Between Jamie and B's wedding, work, training, being an election judge, confirmation at church, and everything else in between I am just tired. And then factor in there personal problems and money problems and its like WOAH. And I know I have a good life, and there are people out there that are a heck of a lot more exhausted than I am but tonight, I just know that I am tired. And I know I havent blogged much over the last few days, but it was kind of at the bottom of my list of importance!

Election day....if you have ever served as an election judge then ya know what I am talking about. If you simply see us sitting there chit-chatting, joking, reading or what not and think we are doing nothing please erase that thought...RIGHT NOW. Yes. During the day there is a little bit less to do with that many hands on deck, but we check everyone in, count the ballots, count the ballots again, be polite, initial the ballots, make sure people's ballots go into the machine (without looking at their ballot, cause you know, we might just be a spy..jk)  Then, closing the polls....might be the most stressful part of the day. It was for me tonight. There are 9 other people there, who all want to get the same things done, and of the 10 of us, 2 of them are supposed to be the "go to" people...the head judges...leaders...and so on and so forth. So its basically mass chaos for about an hour, then ya get to go home. I am lucky. I work in a good precinct where 99% of the voters are very kind and friendly, so if you are an election judge and had to deal with a cranky person today, I am sorry. Okay enough about election judging.

My room smells like poo. And my door wasnt open all day, but my moms dog is laying next to me and I am pretty sure he raided the litter box before coming in my bed. Ish. LOL. Why is it that dogs choose to eat the most absolutely disgusting things? Cat poo, baby diapers, used feminine products, coffee grounds, sticks of butter? I mean, if we ingested all of that pretty sure we'd be dead (or probably wish we were).

Speaking of the things we ingest. BOO election day is never good for me. We always do a potluck, and we always have so many snacks and yummy food. So you more than likely do not want to know everything that I put in my mouth today. The thought of it makes me a little grossed out. I seriously need to get my eating under control. I eat like a cow almost all the time. And the worst part about it is, I am self concious of it. I am always aware of the people that are around me, and wondering whether or not they are judging me for what I am putting ingesting. I have made a concrete goal that in January (No, its not a New Years resolution, it is simply 2 months from now and thats when I want to buckle down) I am going to rejoin weight watchers. It worked really well for me when I was actually following the program. My mom said she would do it with me, and I kind of hope she does. It would be good to have each other for moral support.

For someone who is exhausted I am shocked I am still typing. Endless ramblings. lol. please  note the last word in the title of my blog. OH man, I tell ya. K peace y'alls.....Thanks for reading.

Until next time....
