Holding Pattern

Stuck in a holding pattern right now!

Just like the airlines, there's no beverages or little bags of peanuts to help make the wait more comfortable, and my hubby has no problems sleeping while I'm wide awake, jittery, and desperate to find ways to make time pass by.

Yesterday I was up at 2:45 AM, wide awake, with no hope of falling back asleep. All day I was shakey and on edge...I walked my dog just about 'till her poor legs fell off, hit the gym, tried to focus on work, majorly botched a parellel parking attempt (at least I added humor to an onlookers day...), and drove K and my hubby bonkers with e-mails and texts. By 10 PM I was still wound up tight, my heart a-flittering.

This morning the clock said 1 AM when my eyes opened. I thankfully managed to fall back asleep at 3, but then continued to hit the snooze button from 4:30-7 (....yeah, ummmmm - about that early AM workout I was supposed to do.....whoops....)

K knows me well enough by now to have an e-mail already out to me by 7 AM, reassurring me she will let us know any news as soon as it comes in....poor gal was probably ready to take out a restraining order on my e-mails yesterday!

Last week I was soooo calm; this week - a completely different story.

I keep trying to post about the financial aspects of an adoption since that was our plan for this week, but I just cannot sit still long enough. I am also having the worst time trying to focus on work. Ack! I really need to get my brain focused again quickly, but I just don't see that happening....
