1. Oversleeping/No Alarm - I have done this twice this week! I look up and bam its 7:05 and I get to work at 7:30.... Ensue complete panic. Throw dogs outside, stand in front of closet hmmm, and in my mind I'm yelling "JUST PICK SOMETHING!" Throw on make-up run straightener through hair, grab coffee and something edible at 7-11 and rush into work at 7:47. I mean no one is sitting with a clock seeing what time I get in to my office (there are actually only like 4 people in my office that early). But its MY TIME. I get so much done between 7:30 and 8:30 when the office officially opens. I also then tend to eat crap. Like the bagel and today the breakfast sandwich, (In my defense I asked for the egg white on whole wheat and they have me regular, I ate it)
2. Emergency Filings - Ya know when you get a new case assigned and realize the answer deadline is ya know today... and you rush to pull the Petition and then draft an answer, special exceptions, affirmative defenses and a general denial in about 2.5 seconds.... thank goodness for copy and paste
3. My escape artist Sophie - she has been scaling the baby gate again. I bought a new one and bam Monday and Tuesday I come home to puppy in the living room. I do not know how she does it, but she does... and then cannot get back over and then spends who knows how long chilling on the couch (or in my closet). She got a stern talking to Wednesday and was behind the gate last night. We will see how long it lasts.
4. The ever-changing weather: This weekend it was 72 today its 18 degrees currently.... My body, sinuses, wardrobe just do not know how to cope. Figure it out mother nature!
5. My "To-Do" List....As in the work one... its long, which is good! But none of the stuff on it is lawyer sexy... no motions for summary judgment or briefs or deposition prep, nope! Just letters, research, client calls to make, scheduling mediations... which are all good things and lead to sex lawyer stuff. But I am not as motivated as I was last week prepping for trial...
That's it! Here's to next week....
Ugh I hate running late. Rush Rush Rush even though I don't have contract time or anything. SO not fun!
ReplyDeleteSend us some of your warmth when you can, brrrr it's chilly here.
Nothing is worse than waking up late! Have a fun (and relaxing) weekend!
ReplyDeleteyou should get a doggie (baby cam) to watch her escape the gate. Dogs are so smart!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend.
I PANIC when I oversleep--it doesn't happen too often anymore since MG and I get up around the same time, but man when it does, I go into total panic. Which obviously only slows me down even more!
ReplyDeleteAt least you had some warmth. We've been in the twenties or lower (and def lower with the windchill) for almost the whole week. I'm ready for some warmth!!!
Ugh. Waking up late for work and having to rush is the WORST way to start a day. Hit the 'reset' button this weekend, and hopefully next week you won't be sleeping through the alarm at all!:)
ReplyDeleteNext week will be better!! xo
ReplyDeleteMy pups totally used to be able to scale the baby gate. They'd jump and jump til they got a foot on part of it and then somehow boost themselves over!
