I need to take a chill pill .....

Man do I need to take one of these little suckers
<------------------ <------------------ I've been stressing out to the max about everything, well there is a lot going on in my life. The following things are stressing me out (in no particular order):

  • We've been doing double band practice to get ready for our show on Saturday which means I have less time at home and less time with DS
  • Our show is on Saturday- this Saturday - like TOMORROW - holy crap
  • The house is a pig sty and I haven't found time to clean it
  • We're looking for a house to buy and there's always something wrong with them
  • DH only gets one day off a week and we have to try and do so much on that day it's not funny (actually he took two days this week cos he's at home with DS while the pre school is closed)
  • I'm not smoking
  • I'm not drinking
  • I had to find a new babysitter because my SIL (from HELL) said she was too busy to mind DS from now on (she and my brother are our only family who live near us)
  • I sprained my ankle and haven't been able to walk - but I started again this morning
  • I need to dye my hair cos the greys are showing through again, I need to do it a very strange colour cos I want to wear my hair piece on stage and my hair just doesn't match the wig anymore - dammit - I really need a new hairpiece but I can't afford one right now and anyway they came from Melbourne and I can't remember where?????

I'm so keen for this weekend and I just know it's going to be over so quickly. MIL is coming down to look after DS while we're "at the gig" on Saturday night. Actually this also stresses me out.

Thank goodness we get paid well for doing the show and at least we'll have some spending money next week.

Here's another thing I wanted to talk to you about. I have a new love in my life, dont know if any of you have tried this yet, but i'm so addicted to it it's not funny. So far since they came out (?Monday) I've had a 600ml everyday: Coke Zero.......


If you haven't tried it and you're a fan of Pepsi Max - give it a go, I highly recommend it.

Anyhoo, that's enough rambling for now, I shall return later and update with photos of the new hair colour, which scarily on the box looks sort of pink. Yikes!!!!!


Have a great day everyone - happy Friday!!

Haven't seen Coke Zero here yet, but I'm sure it won't be far off. Hope the gig goes well and the hair colour isn't too scary!

Me said...

Ditto to Sue's comments EXCEPT I have tried the Coke zero and think I will be changing from Diet Pepsi !!!
Hope it all goes well - take care and look after yourself - try not to stress too much - it really doens't help at all.
Lotsa hugs
Me

You stress about a lot of stuff. Me too. But at least you are still not smoking, still not drinking. That is HUGE and you should be very proud of yourself.

Have fun at your gig tomorrow and I hope you hair matches beautifully. But even if it doesn't you will still have an amazing time :D

So will your hair be pink? Maybe it should be red to match the sexy dress. Try not to stress too much but relax and enjoy the gig. As for the house it will happen when it is meant to happen. One day you will look and it will be there an dyou will both agree. As for teh zero I will wait to try it when I am there in 6 DAYS!!!!!!

Can I have one too LOL! You sound like you've got so much on and I hope you get through it all okay. Remember to breathe and find a moment to walk in the fresh air...even it it's 10 minutes.

I am also loving coke zero - a nicer taste than diet coke, and it's all on special too!!
Hope all goes well for the gig tonight!
