This past week I have been quite tired which I attribute to several different things.
I have finally realized the culprit behind being too tired to clean, too tired to cook, and too tired to watch tv; work. For some reason since I have returned from Nayarit I feel like I can barely keep my head above water, I can never see the top of my desk and my email to do's keep piling up.

Emotionally I have been a little drained as well, dealing with my nephew going away is kind of hard. He will be graduating from high school on the 10th of June and then shipping out to Marine boot camp 10 days later. Last Saturday my mom and I went to family day at Moffett Field for my nephew. I know Chito going into the service is for the best, but I guess I just wish I could be with him to hold his hand all of the way. You know?
My mom has been sick for the past month not being able to swallow anything not even water. Finally she consented to going to the hospital and after a visit to the ER we set up appointments with specialists the doctor thought she needed to see. Turns out she has an ulcer in her esophagus and it will take a month to clear up. I miss seeing her full of life.

I'm exhausted. But....things are looking up.
After that damper of an opening I can now say the reason why I have sat and reflected on everything that has happened. In July I will be making another visit to Nayarit. My final move date was originally supposed to be in July/August but I have pushed it out to the end of September. It works out better for me with work.
At first I was going to fly down and back, but there has been a change of plans. I will be driving down and flying back. Yep you read right, I will be taking 'lil Emma down Wednesday June 28th (tentative) with all of my stuff! It turns out that B really needs the truck for work this year and so we are going to try and make it happen to take her down sooner.
We are already knocking on June's door and so I feel like I have been in a race car to get to the finish line. There are so many things that I need to get together that my mind is racing every which way! I'm so excited and I really do hope everything works out at the border. The last time we tried legalizing a truck we took down it didn't work (we still have to figure that one out).
Well, that is where I am at the moment. I'm going to get started on making my lists and work on getting more organized. Hope you all have a fabulous Saturday!
Aww I hope your mom is feeling better soon, poor thing. Im sure everything will eventually work out one way or another! Take care.
ReplyDeleteTough week for sure...you must be a bit disappointed about not moving sooner. At least this way you can get a lot on your 'new' stuff down there and start to set up your home so when you get there in Oct. it will be ready. Your Mom is beautiful, hope she heals quickly.
ReplyDeleteLife really loads us down sometimes but it sounds like you can push through this. Just keep seeing yourself with your husband down south after the move is over. I can imagine your mom being sick makes it all so much harder and I pray she will be feeling better soon.
ReplyDeleteLisa n Javi: Thank you, she is doing much better, I know because let's me know when ever I do something wrong lol
ReplyDeleteContessa: Thank you Contessa. I am a bit disappointed but excited all the same to be inching closer to my move date.
Amanda: Thank you Amanda for your prayers, she is doing much better after about a month of being down. It gets tough but what else can you do but keep pushing to get through it all.
I think Contessa said it. Take advantage of the extra time to not PUSH AND SHOVE to get to the finish line. It will happen and easier with a bit more time. Best wishes for your lovely mama.
