TOO much TOO soon

Mom's gone and Im sad. She is actually still in Bulgaria but we had a HUGE dumping of snow and they got all nervous about getting to the airport in time tomorrow so they left a day early.

I felt cheated. Not becasue they left a day early but because it went SO fast, and I had to work for so much of it. I wanted to show my mom so many things, like a wedding dress I had seen and liked, (I know its a bit premature for that) and just hang out with her, but I blinked and she was gone.

I also spent the last night they were here at the school Christmas dinner. Had I known that was her last night here, I would have done something with her. I had planned to take her to Allegro Sunday night, the nicest restaurant here in town, but it didnt happen. Instead they spent 3-12:30 either waiting for the bus (it was 2 hrs late) or waiting IN the bus. It got stuck en route. It must have been maddening! My poor mom. Couldnt it have waited ONE more day to snow?? Meanwhile my sister and I were both worried sick, I in bed attempting to sleep , unsuccessfully I may add, and her driving to Toronto from Shippensburg. PA. sending each other SMSes and getting all riled up.

And now, I myself will be on a plane in three days. Between now and then I have a million things to do, which I will of course not get done because I am SICK! Coughing up green aliens and feeling overall fatigued. DAMN! I have very few Christmas gifts and I feel like crap about that. What to do??? I promised S that I would rest after work each day and not worry about anything. A promise is a promise.

On a much brighter note, I am bursting at the thought of seeing S again. It all went SO fast and six weeks ago we thought we would die waiting for each other. Now we are both pumped and happy. Hope I get there easily and not get stuck on the way. I'm heading to Sofia Wed. night to be on the safe side.

Well, on that note, I better go pack. I wont be able to do it tomorrow. I have too much else to do.
