prosodicIt's snowing. Of course, I knew this was in the forecast, but didn't think about it last night.
Helped make for a rough start this morning.
Lance has his promotion test today, and has to be down at McChord by 7:30. He wanted to leave here by 6.
He slept in the guest room last night, since he was getting up early, and set his alarm for 5:00. When 5:00 came, he turned off the alarm and promptly fell asleep again. When he woke up, it was 5:40. (If I had been there, I would've gotten him up immediately. I don't linger in bed after the alarm goes off, for just that reason.)
He came into our bedroom at 5:55 to tell me that he was running late and that it snowed overnight. He grabbed all his stuff to go get in the shower.
I turned off my alarm, which was set for 6, quickly made the bed, threw on a coat and shoes, and went out and scraped off his truck windows to save him some time. I'm really worried about him getting there on time. He only gets one shot at this test each year...he can't afford these mis-steps. And this year especially, it would be really good if he made it.
So hopefully he's making good time on his way down there right now. I suppose he'll text me and let me know.
And of course, this threw off my getting ready for work routine. So I feel a bit discombobulated this morning. And so does the dog.
It's been a super difficult week. Today *might* get a little easier, but today and tomorrow are for getting caught up on the projects I didn't have time to do Monday through Wednesday. I'm tired of always being behind on things. I can never quite get caught up. There is only so much I can control in an 8 hour day, and I can only do the best that I can do.
At least it's almost the weekend.
But then Lance leaves on Sunday. After I drop him off, I'll head into Seattle to meet my friend Lisa. I'm driving to her place, and we're taking the bus downtown to hang out at the market for awhile. And those are my big weekend plans.
