Somebody stop me!

I just read this quote: "Now there are more overweight people in America than average-weight people. So overweight people are now average. Which means you’ve met your New Year’s resolution". This means there is hope after all! Mazal tov!

I am so, so, soooooooo tired tonight! I drove for the first time this (official) winter - for us Mainers that breaks down to after God dumped 45 feet of snow and slush on the roads - in our new van (thank you Kelley clan!!) I am like one of those scary winter drivers, not so much because I am a BAD driver as much as I am scared crapless that everyone else on the roads ARE! AND lets face it once you live out in the boonies you find out pretty quickly that unless you drive a king cab, 4wd, w/ a plow then you have no business ON the roads PERIOD! I cant tell you how many times I have almost been forced off the roads by some ass driving one of these 'overstuffed rigs' (no offense to my few friends who have one)! I digress....so here I am driving myself to the post office (I know hold on right! Hey somebody needs to get the Christmas cards!) IN the new van, ON the roads of death, with my colon so clenched it was inside out, singing Santa Baby at the top of my lungs, and a plow truck coming up fast from behind when I hit a curve that was a bit....pissy (as I like to call it) and all of a sudden I feel the back wheels trying to meet up with the front - at this moment I feel every muscle in my body tighten and let a few expletives slip! Long story short, I am fine BUT I hurt, my whole body feels all tense and tired! I hope that this gets easier as the winter progresses or I am screwed!

Tonight was the cub scout holiday extravaganza...the only thing that would make this more 'fun' would be if someone invited my in laws and there was a mandatory tazing station! God love em they are LOUD and WILD!!! There was a ton and a half of sugary treats, which I dont really let my kids have much of so Isabella was literally bouncing off the walls and being manic as hell!!! I am in serious need of a stiff drink, a hot bath and a good book but all of those things take a bit more energy then I have mercilessly been left with!

AND while I am on a role we STILL havent put up our Christmas tree yet! WTH!!! Tim has promised to be home tomorrow night after work and we will have family night and do it then!! Its about at the point where there isnt much sense in putting it up because I will take it down a week later!!

I better go find my pillow and my blanket before someone gets hurt! lol Did I mention I was tired?? I tend to get a little punchy when I am lacking sleep!

Good night world!
