Most days, my eyes open, and one of the first thoughts to formulate is, "Thank you, Lord, for waking me up one more day. I will rejoice in this day." Then..., I have to come out of my sheets. My beautiful golden 400-thread count sheets. Delicious. Yummy. Luxuriously buttery cotton sheets warmed by me and my hubby. Most days, my body miraculously makes it across the room in five steps to slap the snooze button or reset the alarm for 30 more minutes. Then, my feet scramble back to the bed to snuggle with my hubby.

Most days, my boss sees me enter the office between 8:55 and 9:02 AM. The best thing about Mondays and Tuesdays is how busy things can be. Next thing you know, it's 5 PM with 1 hour left in the workday.

I still feel like it's 6:30, and I want to be back in bed snuggled in the spoon position with hubby. One of the best ways to start my day and end each night. I know the allergies are jacking with my head and making me light-headed... But I know part of my feelings are out of love for my hubby and teammate.

I thought that I had posted an entry in early April about all the changes coming with marriage and my family in general. Instead, I found about 15% of the saved post in the Drafts folder. How unfortunate (that's not what I really want to say).



Right now, I'm enjoying 3 months and 1 day of a great marriage. My husband is the best, and the decision to marry him is one of the best decisions I ever made. We're not perfect, but we are a team. I love my team!



Too bad I'm suffering from allergies. THere is a great chance that I'll be buying a mask to wear for this damn extemely high pollen count. Pollen allergies aren't unusual in Georgia, especially for transplants.That's why I've always felt like I should be immune to these allergies since I'm a born and bred Georgia Girl. Luckily, I didn't suffer when that yellow dust from the pine and oka trees fell over everything in the city like some plague. On Thursday, I notice the irritation, and my coworker noted that she saw on the news that there was a new pollen released in the air. I did a little research with The Weather Channel and learned that there was mulberry tree pollen starting on Thursday, the first day I felt these symptoms. Ain't that some isht???


So, I'm missing a community service project due to these allergies, and my house guest may have to go out tonight without me because I feel pretty badly. It sounds like a good case of hay fever because I sneezed all day at work yesterday, I've had headaches with the runny nose, and I'm weak. All because of a mulberry tree! I'm an Atlanta native; therefore, I should have immunity from this stuff. Damn!


I'm sooo praying for rain.
