Late night, crazy wife. {an iphone post}

This isn’t the way I intended to come back from my holiday blogging break. This was SUPPOSED to be a Christmas round up post with lots of fun photos. Instead, i’m laying in bed and blogging from my phone at 5:30am after being up all night.

I don’t often blog from my iPhone, but I keep an app on here for emergency blogging purposes. Perhaps I should make use of it and blog on the go more often? Honestly, I didn’t even plan on blogging, but an email to hubs prompted me to do so.

You see, I usually come to bed later than hubs does, so at the end of my night I’ll lay in bed and send him a “close of business” email from my phone. Basically, it’s just a bunch of random thoughts, lists, to-dos and such for the next day. I’m insane, I know.

I’m a bit behind since taking a week off to travel home for Christmas and my to-do list for work, blog and household is a getting looong. In an attempt to get caught up, I was just going to pull an all-nighter. Didn’t go as planned.

So, at just past 5am, I decided to come to bed. it was all summed up in a rant-filled, pity party email.

Bah!!

I’m so beyond frustrated with myself. I decided to stay up all night
to get stuff done because I thought I’d slept late enough to keep me
up all night. Also, I hate that coffee after dinner and another at
1am.

Around 3:30 I started getting really sleepy. Now it’s just after 5 and
I so badly want to go to sleep. Just crawled in bed.

Thing is… I didn’t really get anything checked off of my list. I
kept fooling around with one thing, then I would jump to something
else, then back to the first thing and then start something completely
new.

I need to prioritize.

I MUST get a blog post AND redesign done by Friday afternoon. But I
also REALLY need to clean the house and do laundry. I didn’t even
clean the kitchen up like I wanted to. It wouldn’t even take that long
do to it, but I never did.

All of that wouldn’t be so bad if I knew that I could just sleep now
and wake up at 11, but knowing me, I’ll sleep aaalllll day. I’m so mad
at myself.

Ugh. Frustration.

You’re wife is a procrastinating, easily-overwhelmed, sleep-disordered maniac.

Sorry for the rant.

Oh, one last thing; will you take the trash down? Thanks.

I love you. I will get better and become normal soon.

    I feel that way all of the time. Especially the sleep disordered part…and feeling like I am never checking anything off my to do list.

    Also, I love that you send you hubs a close of business email.

    We should get together soon. You free anytime on Friday (yikes, thats tomorrow!)?

    Ugh! I have those days all the time. Like right now – when I have soooo much to do to get ready for our New Years Day party and can’t get anything done! At least you are keeping your husband accountable!

    You’re funny.

    And your hubs must be a patient guy :) Because mine would never even open an email like that if i sent it…let alone read it! (and I often write them, just never hit send!)

    WOW! My jaw dropped a little when I saw the “Inbox (51)” on your iPhone. Holy smokes! I hope you’re caught up. I felt completely out of control this week, too! When i visit the fam in WV, I feel like i totally lose touch with who I am and what I do for a few days – then, when i head back to reality, i’m off-kilter and behind for days!

    I hope your Christmas was very merry, and I look forward to the review post! And now, for a little begging and pleading:

    On New Year’s Eve, I’ll be saying good-bye from my blog, “A Day in the Life of a Grad Student’s Wife”. I appreciate you following me there, and I hope you will visit my new blog, “A Professor’s Wife”, at http://www.aprofessorswife.com! I’m celebrating the new year, the end of my husband’s 7-year stint as a grad student, and my new phase in life beginning on New Year’s Day with an official blog launch/post, and I would love for you to join me!
    You can head on over to http://www.aprofessorswife.com now, and start following via Google Friend Connect, Facebook, Twitter, and/or email so you don’t miss a thing!
    I hope you’ve had a wonderful holiday season. Happy 2011, and I’ll see ya around at “A Professor’s Wife”!
