Tired. So tired. My brother is moving in today. Aaron and I had planned to clear out our guest room/office earlier this week, but with our power being out, that didn't happen. We were up late last night removing our furniture, packing things away, etc. We didn't finish. I woke up at 7:30 this morning and spent an hour and a half on it. Almost done. It's cleared out enough for him to move in. I'm soooo tired! I have to work from 10-5 today. I just pray I'll make it through the day without crashing. When we work Saturdays, it's a shorter shift, so we don't get lunch breaks. We can bring a snack, but we can't go anywhere or take a long time eating. And I haven't gone grocery shopping yet, so literally the only thing I had in the kitchen to bring to work was a box of Chips Ahoy. I suppose that'll do. We had cleared out our fridge after the power had been out for 3 days and we've been eating out all week.
Last night I made something tasty though! I found a knock off recipe for Cracker Barrel's hashbrown casserole. I don't think it tasted like theirs, but it was still pretty good. I divided it into 2 glass baking dishes. We had one last night and I'll cook the other probably tomorrow. Last night, Aaron went on a hunt to find me some new Sperry's on sale. The ones I wanted were $80 at Belk, $85 at Macy's and we didn't find them at any other stores. I told him that's ok though because I won't wear them when it's 100+ degrees outside anyway. Speaking of which, when was I teleported to Death Valley?! It's so freaking hot here!!! I'm so glad for air conditioning, frozen yogurt shops, ice, warm showers, shorts, flip flops, and my loving husband who puts up with my heat induced whinyness. Actually, I saw a story on Fox News this morning that said Seasonal Affective Disorder also affects people in the summer, making them cranky. Diagnosis!
My mind has been so preoccupied lately. I'm upset that we don't have the financial means for me to move to Baltimore with my HUSBAND. It sucks. I don't think it's right. We're married. We're supposed to be together. We want to be together. We don't want to live in different states. I love him. I love spending time with him. I love all the little things... trips to Target, going out to dinner, day trips, playing games, back massages, hugs...
Have any of you weathered long distance relationships? How did you handle it?
