Crazy Lady!!


crazy day @ work yesterday
multitasking, delegating all day
it never stopped
i tried to stay in control

no way, i lost it, crazy me

the room cleared, and it
was just me, this crazy lady

owning a business
can be very stressful

does anyone
ever listen
can i be in
all places
at all times

as others might think at work
i do not have 20 fingers
and 20 toes, and eyes in
the back of my head
i am here to tell them i do not

it will never get
easier, i know this
it is what i signed up
for, i have the corporation
papers to prove it

my business
my baby

would i change it?
absolutely not

will i still complain?
absolutely
each and every day

i am me, i can't be another!

Tinkatia said...

Good Morning Mek - First in line., Joey, and Goldie. I would still be sitting at yesterday's post waiting for it to change if I hadn't started over again. Then I found there were 9 comments already written. I thought as soon as the quote went up the blog would change before my eyes. At my age I am still learning something. I guess that is a good thing.

Happy Birthday Lynn

Tinkatia said...

I must still be asleep. I accidentally deleted my post. All it said was "I knew you were there Joey. I would have been talking to you if I had been in the right nest. Imagine not knowing our own nest. Another senior moment."

night.owls.sb said...

Joey
Wow, oh wow....That is beautiful, I can't believe you did that for us...

I am speachless!!

Well not really.. :O)

Thank You ever so much!

Tinkatia said...

JoeyfromSC said...

Thanks for the sweet comments! I really didn't mind at all! It was a joy!

Tinkatia said...

Crazy Lady - I used to feel like a crazy lady some mornings trying to get three little kids dressed, fed, into their snowsuits, into the car to go to their grandparents and then rush off to school to face kids, teachers, parents, and the Principal. It has been said that a teacher interacts over a thousand times a day with different people of different ages.
You get home, rush through making dinner, getting the kids bathed, into bed, read to, do the evening chores, get ready for the morning and fall into bed. It started all over again the next day. The weekends were busy doing more chores and getting ready for the next week. Sometimes I felt like one of those hamsters that I kept in the classroom. They jumped on their wheel and never stopped until they were dizzy. When the summer would come and life slowed down I wondered how I would be able to get back on that wheel. Somehow I did. A luxury for me would be to be all alone in a bubble bath with quiet all around me. Without those few moments a day to be alone and I would have been a crazy lady.
Then the years went quickly by. Now I look back on those days with such fondness. I am now surrounded by quiet moments and look forward to the days when the kids and grandkids are here making lots of noise and mess.
Life goes on. Now I feel like a crazy lady when I constantly misplace things, when I get to my grand daughter's baseball game only to find out I have laid down my purse on the front steps while I am locking the door and have to go right back to retrieve it. I feel like a crazy lady at least 3 times a week. I guess I should be thankful. I still can remember what I had for breakfast. Is that the next step? Oh God I hope not.

Tinkatia said...

I am off to check messages and have breakfast. I will check back later to see how many other crazy ladies we have in the nest.

East Bay J said...

Happy Birthday Lynn D!

Hope you have a fun day!

Zona, I have not signed into Myspace for a while, but wanted to tell you that Paula is doing good. She is on her last week of antibiotics. My huz is taking her to the vet Friday morning for lab tests.

We will then decide what to do next. I have a feeling that she will stay on the sub-q fluids for some time. But that's ok.

I hope everyone has a nice day today!

RonnieGirl said...
Is anyone having a major problem with myspace?

I was able to login and read mail and then was frozen out 3 times.
Couldn't even come here, had to shut-down.

So....Here's my Birthday Card to the sweetest Morning Glory there is, LynnD.

Happy Birthday, Dear One and I hope you have a wonderful day.
((hugs))


(cross-post from area 51)

Tinkatia said...

Good Morning to --

East Bay J - I am so happy Paula is doing well.

Lynn - The birthday girl. I love your menu.

Shirley - Good question.

Barbara in Wa --I don't understand your post but it must be funny. Who is Pinky?

Tinkatia said...

Good Morning Ronnie -
Myspace is fine. VIG was having problems with hers yesterday. I guess they work on a few at a time.

You are such a sweetie. I could just hug you, and squeeze you. You always do the kindest things for everyone else.

DonnaJean said...

What???? This ISN'T the 100th blog????

And I have all my shot glasses set up for the "drinking game"!!! And I was all ready to start serving Bloody Mary's and Mimosa's this morning!!!

Oh, well, Happy 98th Blog, Carol!!!


And, Joey, my dear that was a work of art! So cute! My heart is with you today as Virginia Tech observes the 1st Anniversary of that terrible day. Love, prayers and hugs to you and all the students there. Actually the whole community.

And, Lynn D, may you have a magical day!

Peace , Love, and Happiness to everyone, DonnaJean

DreamaTexas said...

Moweenie

DonnaJean
also sorry that I missed you. My regular e-mail was down for 3 days 80% of the time so I haven't written to anyone.

Mary/MI said...

Good morning !!
MEK ~you are always #1 to me!

LynnD~ Yeah I was #1 for your Birthday greeting! LOL!!

Joey~Loved your invite! You are a talentedho hee hee!

TOTD~ I have always worked "for the man" never boss lady. I look back now and wonder how I raised my sons,worked ungodly hrs, kept my Hubby happy, not to mention all the cooking, cleaning,etc. I must have managed my household like a crazy woman! I guess that could be considered "upper MANagement" since I managed sons and Hubby!
I own my Karaoke business with MrMary as my only employee.I haven't had to crack the whip too many times LOL!

I will bring my DJ/Karaoke equipment to our party.
Put me down for enchiladas.

ibebold said...

Barbara_in_COviaWA said...

Goooey! I was joking! I love pinky ! She's a sweetheart. I was just kidding with you.

Amicus said...

Good Morning Owls!

Cpgem: There are some days when I find myself wondering if I was temporarily insane when I decided to start my own business. LOL! The stack of hats we wear can get pretty darn heavy at times. On good days though, I love it, and those days far outnumber the bad. :)

Joey: Wow! Great job on the invite!

BonO: Toasted Ravioli originated in my region so I'll bring it for the pot luck. :)

Waving Hi and wishing everyone a Happy Wednesday!

Just_Lin said...

I haven't read all the comments yet because I have to respond to Joey before I continue....
Your invitation to the 100th blog celebration is FREAKIN' FANTASTIC!!!! You are so clever and talented!! I LOVE IT!

Amicus said...

PS...

Happy Birthday Lynn!!!

Just_Lin said...

MEK Congrats on #1 on Hump Day.

Lynn D Hope you're having a wonderful birthday. I wonder what kind of trouble you will cause today at the food bank. LOL

There are certainly times in my life that I have felt like a crazy lady but I will think about this more before I comment on it.

goldie said...

Good afternoon everyone-
IBB- glad everyone likes the brownies enough to volunteer me!
If Jodi didn't volunteer yet, let me do it for her- potato salad (and yes Jodi, I would luv you even with out your salad)!

Hubby owns 2 business (technically I do to) so I feel like most of the time I am management and the grunt. There are fringe benefits though- no one complains that I sleep with the boss....

Jodi said...

JOEY - I love the invites!!! And I DO have the BLOG HOG T from Rosie!!! I'll have to post a pic of me wearing it. I have that one in tres chic black!!!

BON - Thanks for making the menu!!! I had a feeling that I'd be down for the potato salad!!!

Barbara_in_COviaWA said...

OK...I deleted my comment because it didn't make any sense! And I didn't want Joey to think I was mad, when I'm not! LOL! But I saved this part of it!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LYNN!!!

Congrats on 1st today MEK! **hands over crown**

Carol....I don't think I could ever run a business. I would be "crazy lady" everyday.

Jodi said...

GOLDIE - lol @ sleeping with the boss!!! :P

ibebold said...

Goldie--
Jodi was volunteered for 8 gallons of Potato Salad!!!

Jodi said...

IBB - 8 gallons?!!? Holy crap....I better get moving!!! Although, I don't know how to make less than 10 lbs at a time!!!

ibebold said...

I make 10 lbs at a time too...
I don't remember who did that but it will be in area 51...

ibebold said...

DreamaTexas said...

Awww, Barbara your comment to Joey was too funny. Undelete it. LOL
Hi Mary/Mi.
Okay, back to work.
My cousin works in DC. She said it is crazy there with traffic and security for the Pope's visit. It took her an hour to get to work. They are doing security checks in her building along with others.Let me see if can find my photo of the Pope that was made at Sand Fest. It won first place and was a fantastic work of art.

DreamaTexas said...

Ok, the Pope should be my default now for those who want to see. It's a great sculpture!

goldie said...

Waving a wing at everyone-

Good to know Jodi is making all that potato salad! Now what are the rest of you going to eat since that should just about fill my order? ;)

night.owls.sb said...

Hey all

Flying by, waiting on a client!

Shirley
When I sign onto blogger this is what is written:

"night.owls.sb
99 Posts,
last published on Apr 16, 2008"

So when I post tomorrows blog it will be 100 posts...

If you are looking at the main page of the blog on the right where all the blogs are it does say 98, however that is without todays blog...

Thanks for bringing it up tho, as it can be confusing....

:O)

night.owls.sb said...

Bon
That menu is to die for!

Oh gosh, its great!...

Amicus said...

BonO,

We're going to need an Italian salad too for the Lasagna and Toasted Ravioli so I'll bring a Pasta House salad with artichoke hearts.

Thanks for keeping track of this for us! The menu looks yummy! :)

night.owls.sb said...

ibb
Thanks, but I am a "Level Headed Crazy Lady" :O)

night.owls.sb said...

Bon

"BEVERAGES:
*Champagne**Toast to CPGEM8 & CYBER*FRIENDS**(Bon'O)"

Perfect!!!

I am raising my glass...

And off I go back to work...

Bon'O said...

CAROL~~ Thanks...YOU ROCK!!


(**whispering**psst, I think Shirley/Joey are right about Friday being 100....but the menu has addled my brain, so what do I know?)

Just_Lin said...

BonO What Carol is saying is tht there are 98 blogs in archives. Archives does not include the current days blog, only older ones. Therefore, today totals 99 blogs.

♥LOVEY♥ said...

Howdy Owls!!

Congrats on 1st Mek
Crazy lady Carol lol ty for the blog today..in the end, the headaches are worth it!!

Oh my stars, I am drooling all over my keyboard at that menu!!

I'd like to bring my favs, escargot baked in shroom caps and garlic butter,
and steamed snowcrab legs..

I'll bring some local Maple sugar candies and sweet treats too.

and.... just in case someone forgets, I've ordered a case of lemons to go with that tequila hehe.

Dianne I read re:#51, that is so cool, wish I had scooped that plate.Ty for thinking of me:o)

Mek L&O had me shaking too.

I must go shopping for a new thong to wear, and maybe a new hat n boa.. something in purple maybe?

scirish said...

Carol....I can certainly empathize, especially lately. I am "supervising" the rehab of the house next door to me so that my MOTHER (picky,picky Mother) can move there.The people that bought her house want to move in 2 weeks!! TWO FREAKIN WEEKS!!! (Did I mention that my Mother is picky?) Now, I have rehabed houses many times before...but never so quickly! AND I can't really do much of the work myself any more, which means I have to depend on others. I exploded yesterday when the painter dude told me he had to go pick up his teeth! Poor guy was toothless and I'm yelling at him to schedule these things after work...Sheesh

♥LOVEY♥ said...

Umm can we keep those Rocky Mountain oysters way over there >>>>>>>>>>>
way way over there.

ibebold said...

O.K... guys... If you ad the numbers up... Friday is 100....

♥LOVEY♥ said...

RonnieGirl said...

Good afternoon everyone.

The menue sounds so delicious. Can't wait.

I agree with Lovey about those "oysters". That was a very brave person who ate those for the first time years ago. He must have been very, very hungry.

Jodi said...

IBB - I did work today......4am til noon!!! I get the best of both worlds......the late night crew when I get up for work, and the rest of you after work!! BTW....I got your cocktail - THANK YOU & CHEERS!!!

LOVEY - Just be thankful I'm not bringing the picked pigs feet (sorry MO) or the pickled eggs that my Dad is fond of. :P

ibebold said...

Lovey SCirish--- can I get in on that hug,,,,

RonnieGirl said...

goldie said...

Ok, here is my solution to the blog date issue. We START celebrating tomorrow and go right thru Friday. That way we can't be wrong on the date!!!!

lovey- I ADORE escargot in garlic butter.

I am thinking we should serve my brownies first so that everyone has more appetite for all that good food being served. For some reason they always seem to give me the munchies......

This whole menu has me drooling. And yes, I can eat that much potato salad thank you very much...LOL

Carol..thank you for the blog today. And please don't be another...you are perfect the way you are.

And how's this for the craziness of work. I was out my door by 7am this morning...drove for four hours and managed to hit the rush hours of three cities and got to the school to find out my student is not there today! Argggh! Oh well, now I get to sit in a lovely cyber cafe, eating a lovely foccacia sandwich and drinking my favourite lovely soy chai tea and am taking a break by visiting the lovely Owl's Nest. The rest of the afternoon will be working via e-mail and then more driving to another town to see a student there tomorrow. A part of this job that I really like is I never know what the day will bring...everyday is so different.

Lynn_D...happy, happy special day! Hope you have a fabulous birthday!!!

Tink...I was tired just reading what your day was like! Glad you are having some restful days now to make up for all those years of busy days!!

Joey...the invitation is way cool! You are a very talented owl!!!!

Bono...can I add my contribution to the menu? So thinking in terms of regional fare..I will add to the desserts with Nanaimo Bars ( don't know what that is?....google!!!). And because there is a large Asian influence in my part of the world, I will contribute my specialty of Vietnamese Salad Rolls with peanut dipping sauce. And just because, I will also add in chai tea lattes!

Bon'O said...

Gosh, I'd almost forgotten how much fun it is to watch a ((Love, Goldie, Jodi)) throwdown!!

Amicus~~1 Pasta Salad Toss added!

VIG~~Will now add your treats...make sure there are LOTS of Nanaimo Bars! And, you have no idea how close I came to adding our famous "Oregon Chai Tea Lattes"! Opted for the champagne instead and didn't want to hog the beverage menu.

goldie said...

Hey - looking at the menu made me think of all the fantastic food and recipes. Just a thought here, (one of my few) How about one day we do a recipe day where everyone (who wishes too) posts a favorite recipe. Can you imagine the great recipes we would all have? Our own version of an Owl cookbook.
Pretty sure Jodi is not parting with the damn potato salad recipe (some crock about old family secret....lol) but I would love some of the others I saw.

♥LOVEY♥ said...

LMAO @ flat rock hahaha.
Ok Goldie I will look around the shop and see what I can find for your pawwwwwwty outfit...

Hiya VIG!! Kick back n relax you're home n comfy!

Jodi are u off the floor yet?

ekkk bb in a bit, puter is housecleaning

Bon'O said...

Goldie~~Great idea! I think we talked about doing that a while back......and my guess is Jodi's secret is a little of the vinegary juice from the pickled pigs feet!

Bon'O said...

2 posts back...LoveY (for her sweetness and Joey's spell-check. Gotta run, get busy...or I'll be asleep before IDOL.

Anonymous said...

Bono....I love the Oregon chai tea!!!! Not as sweet as some!!! Please, please, please add it to the menu!

Lovey...thanks...kicking back sounds like a great idea!!!

goldie said...

ok, I am out the door. It is nice out and no one is here but me and the phones are not ringing. So going to go take Pepper out for a walk. Meeting a girlfriend for dinner, so will check in later tonight.

Lovey, I need a size large for the coat but a small for the tassles....
