I had to vacuum the pool last night when I got home after spending all day walking through the snow and driving home in a blizzard. I was too tired to swim by the time I was done.
What are yours?

One of our clients sent the Mrs. Fields gift box for Christmas that they usually send. But this year it was just stupid little cookies and not the delicious brownies that I had been looking forward to all month.

I am STILL doing laundry from our trip to France. I took cashmere sweaters, and they are a pain to wash (but are light, don't take up a lot of room and are warm).
I still have a raging case of jet lag. 9 hours is harder to recover from than 5-6.

I'm out of coffee. I drank it all already this am.
Oh, the horror!

I live in a very small city that has always had their roads plowed by 5 am, while my mother's road in the adjacent city gets plowed by 7 PM. This year, the city jacked up property taxes a lot, hardly had any snow until last night, and didn't have any roads except 3 or so main roads plowed until 10 am. My mom's road was already plowed, because most of the snow fell yesterday evening. My DH couldn't get to work because the road was impassable with the Civic. I barely got through in the minivan. (I have to take my mom her meds, so I get the minivan as it is literally life and death.)

I'm off work all week and the apartment above us in the process of being renovated. I have to go shopping to get away from the noise. It's also been perfect running weather but I'm forcing myself to take a break for my hip's sake. Now I have to do yoga and ride my bike.

They still had plenty of toys to play with. If I ever get the basement situated so they can play down there, it will totally look like a toy store.

I've been whining for a year about living for (essentially) free in a big house in a neighborhood I couldn't afford to buy in where we have our own bathroom and very large room to live in. Poor us, huh?

There are probably about 100 different places to eat within a 2-block radius of here, but it's cold and I don't want to go outside, and I don't want food from any of the places that deliver (or are in the building), so I am sitting here until I get hungry enough to actually get up.

My house looks like a damn toy store exploded. i want to throw it all away. I told my 5 year old if Santa saw all the toys he had when he showed up he wouldn't feel he needed any new ones. He was happy to help me pack up boxes to donate or put in storage.

the cupholders on my loaner car are inconvenient.
My flight to the Bahamas leaves a bit earlier than I would like.
My accountant told me to buy some office equipment by the end of the year.
My lunch meeting got cancelled because of the weather and now I actually have to go get lunch.
I don't want to take my kid to figure skating tonight.
Woe is me.

That said, I have been neglecting other activities so it is a good thing that I am taking a break from beating myself up.

I have granite countertops in my kitchen. I live in New England. The granite picks up the cold outside temperatures and, being stone, holds it, even in my warm house. So, I am forced to run my coffee mug under HOT water in the kitchen sink before pouring my next cup so that the coffee will stay at the right temperature while I sip it.

My good for almost nothing admin only printed 1 of 2 reports I need. And it's raining again. I swear we are going to need an ark by the time it stops.

I have to add a bunch of fresh produce to my shopping list to keep my new Nutri Bullet full. And I did ask for this Nutri Bullet as a gift. So now I am not only obligated to buy good stuff to fill it, I am obligated to actually use it.

I can't eat fattening foods without getting fat. Someone brought in dark chocolate and peppermint bark and I want to eat the whole box.

I'm home alone and is lunch time. It's hard to decide what I wanna eat or if I wanna eat. Id have to get off the couch and walk to the fridge and then choose. Eh! Maybe it helps if I try to act like I forgot about lunch and skip it?

I can't figure out what to go buy for lunch. I am not, however, sitting in my office until I figure it out like someone..... People don't like me if I don't eat lunch, I tend to get all angry and stuff. So, in order to keep my job I must go get food.
