Friday Freedom
I'm not sure how we start our own meme but I want to share my hopes and dreams for the weekend as it is finally "freedom" Friday.
1. I hope that this weekend I will finally get some sleep. I worked a 14-hour day yesterday and although I'm not as exhausted as I thought I would be, I'm still pretty tired. I want to go back to the good old days of sleeping in until 10am.... oh how I love those days!
2. I want to get my hair done. You guys have heard me talk about getting my hair done for months now. Let me assure you that my hair has been in a ponytail for about 5 months straight. It's absolutely terrible and I'm assamed of myself. So, it's not a joke and I'm not exaggerating when I say that I need to get my hair done.
3. I want to clean my house -- really clean my house. Not the superficial kind of cleaning that ends up being messy again on Monday, but a really good cleaning. I feel like my house has been a state of disarray ever since I went back out to work and although I try on the weekends, it just isn't good enough.
4. I want to do some community cooking again. That exercise was the best idea ever. I still have 2 dishes in the freezer, but I want to get it together again so I don't end up in the confused state during the week, with DD hanging on to my leg, as I look into the fridge/cabinet trying to figure out what in the world to cook ... again.

I love Freedom Fridays! Great idea.
If you figure out a way to do items 1 thru 3, please let a sista know because they're on my list too.
Otherwise, the only one I can help you with is #4...wanna try for late Sunday afternoon again?
PS
14 hours!! That's crazy.
Let me share that I got one thing done ... I finally (after about 4 months of whining) got my hair done.
But, please don't be fooled into thinking that it was without its drama. DH and I got into it when I came home on Friday. He was so ridiculous...he didn't know where I was or when I was coming home blah, blah, blah. He drove me crazy. I feel like I can't step out of the house without time restraints -- it's absolutely ridiculous. I so wanted to tell him that he wanted me back at work....and these are the repercussions. But I didn't. I kept cool (although I did cry a bit).
Anyway, I got one thing done and I will hope to get the other matters taken care of next weekend.
Now really. Getting your hair done should not have to result in you ending up in tears! But I totally understand where you're coming from. It's happened in my house many a time but now I am to the point where I let it roll right off of my shoulders...
And good for you for holding your tongue. Those would have been the very first words out of my mouth :)
