Exhausted

So today was the second wednesday of the month. And what does that have to do with anything you may ask...well, the second wednesday of every month is donation collections with a domestic violence group I volunteer with (Against Abuse, Inc). The problem was that I forgot about it. That means that I stayed up until 4am working on homework and various projects (I'm big on the projects) last night and therefore did not get enough sleep. Now I understand that many people don't get enough sleep, but I NEED MY SLEEP. In the words of my brother-in-law's brother (who is in my ward choir): Jeni gets really cranky when she doesn't get enough sleep. However before I elaborate on today, let me tell you about yesterday. Grandma (who I live with) had a doctor's appointment at 8am. This means we left about 7:40 then came back to the house at 7:50am because she couldn't remember if she had turned off her bedroom space heater. :) So we got to the doctor's office, checked in and then waited. When she finally went in I went to run errands. I am pleased with my list: I got her van tires checked, went to the bank, and returned some DVDs (X-files: I want to believe and Babylon A.D.-good movies). Then picked up grandma and we went to Wal-mart...we both needed socks, very exciting I know but I also go some makeup (I'm wearing it almost every Sunday now) ON SALE for like 70% off. Later that afternoon I drove up to Chandler and volunteered for about 2.5 hrs at the Chandler Public Library (I love the library).

Today I spent all day in a moving van. We picked up a ton of furniture. I'm getting to be a pro mover and packer (that is not an advert for help, though if you really need it...). On the plus side, I got lunch out of it, I also go to take a nap (Christy who I do the pick-ups with and I were exhausted so we decided to "rest"), AND I got a fabulous desk/shelf/cabinet thingy that matches my bedroom furniture-FOR FREE! It needs some fixing up but I'm totally stoked. Which is good considering both Christy and I sacrificed some toes in order to get it into my room. :) Now I just have to clean it up and pack my stuff in it. I am satisfied with the past two days' work. They have been successful.

Now that I've caught up, I'm going away. I've some homework to do and want to take a nap first. Napping makes everything better...even homework.
