I'm cranky and procrastinating. That' not a good combination.
Part of the crankiness is due to the lack of quality sleep I've been getting. This cough has kept me up night after night for a week. Today it has subsided just a bit, but that is after I had two coughing fits yesterday that resulted in me vomiting. I guess it is good to get the phlegm out of my system. It just wears me out. I've not been coughing so much today.
I've been worried about my right big toe again. I've filed the nail properly but it is still poking the skin next to the nail creating a sore spot. That sends me into panic mode if I'm not careful, which in turn sends of my blood sugar. It's a vicious circle. Now I've got a piece of cotton under the edge of the toenail with some triple anitbiotic ointment on it to both raise the toenail and treat the tiny bit of irritation. I hate the fear that rises in me because of this damn diabetes.
I am procrastinating a big financial report that I need to do. I have an appointment with the accountant next Tuesday. It's crunch time. I shouldn't even be blogging, but I am. I know I'll get the report done. I just need to start and then it will flow. I have all of the information organized. I finished that part of it yesterday.
My mom called to cancel our usual Thursday get together for tomorrow. That always brings me down a bit. I do look forward to that day away from the farm. But, the road is so muddy here right now that I don't even know if I could make it out with the car.
I colored my hair two days ago and my husband hasn't even noticed. Granted, it was a subtle change, but it is a little lighter and shinier. I'm kind of bummed that he doesn't pay attention to me, but that is nothing new.
Speaking of hair, I'm getting my hair cut on Friday. I scheduled it so that I can take the four wheel drive pickup out be back before my husband has to go to work. I'm long past needing a good shape up.
I've wasted half a day. I need to make myself get busy on that report.
Thanks for reading.

I hear you on avoiding the financial stuff. I'm here at work avoiding some data input that I really should do. I do it every month and every month I put it off an extra day or so because it's boring. -

UI,
Nice to share a moment of procrastination with you. :-)
My stuff is kind of boring too even though it is important. I've been terrible about putting it off. I got really behind on it when I had the health problems last fall. Now I'm playing catch up.

I was going to answer but I'll just wait till later! hehe, just kidding!! I hate financials...but the thing I am putting off is organizing to list my house. Now why am I doing that? No clue.I am cranky too, so we can be twins!ya know what? I think you should look back at the first half of the day as just "being": and stop feeling like it was wasted time. That will make a girl really cranky too! happy wednesday! mamie -

SkinnyW, I am just such a procrastinator and then I always get into a bit of a tizz. I am really sorry to hear about your toe and I can just imagine how concerned you must please; please take care and see the Dr sooner than later if you feel its getting worse. A nice haircut is always something to look forward to :-)Blessings, Polar x -

Mamie,
You are funny. :-) I have been "being" all day long now. Sigh...
I need to get on the ball and get some things done.
polar,
My toe will be ok. It's already stopped hurting. I panic at the slightest twinge in my feet. I'm always scared because of losing my other toe. I wouldn't hesitate to go to the doctor if it didn't get better. I think I would absolutely die if something else happened.

Procrastination. That would have been my middle name had my mom known how to spell it. Even after growing up I can't change my name since I still can't spell it because I keep p-r-o-c-r-a-s-t-i... (whatever the word) learning how to spell it. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe another day. Maybe I am getting better already. I mean, it only took me three hours to post this comment. -

Madd,
That's funny. :-) You're making good time if it only took you three hours to comment.

I realize I new here, but I still can't help but just jump in here and say, I wish you would go to the doctor about that toe. It scares me when you told me you have diabetes. I too, haven't been feeling well, in fact, I just now blogged about having a nasty head cold.
Maybe we could share a can of soup or something. You take care of yourself, you hear?

purposeful,
Thank you for your concern. I will be very careful with the toe. This happened once before and this is what I was told to do. Believe me, I will make a bee line to the doctor if it worsens.
I've been battling a cold too. What kind of soup shall we have?

well CW, I can't believe that coughs still around but I sympathise with the sleep thing, I've had very little over the last week and its affecting my moods terribly!
As for your husband noticing your hair?? pfffttt... very few men do notice my husbands like that, I had a french polish done on my nails a while back and it took 6 days to notice. {that was only after he heard a comment from someone else tee hehee}

I am big on procrastinating, I just work better under pressure. CW, I think you should consider a pedicure. It might help soothe that sore spot.
My husband only notices my hair if I do something extreme. So, I wouldn't even count this one.

Lucy,
I've let the hair thing go. He's a lost cause on that. :-) I finally got some sleep last night, but I could sure use some more. I hope you get some good rest soon too.
vacant,
I always make my deadlines, so I guess there is no big harm in the procrastinating. :-) I did sort of give myself a pedicure this morning. I took a buffer file to my big toenail to make it more smooth and flat. That should help. I've given up on my husband noticing my hair.
