Just Had to Get Something Out

Today involved a grocery shopping trip and a few other errands followed by cooking 5 lbs of beef followed by a quick change followed by a three hour stint as a 4th grade teacher followed by homework supervision and research paper tutoring followed by cooking for 3 families followed by cleaning up after that followed by helping again with the paper followed by 5...count 'em 5 loads of laundry washed and folded followed by gathering names and numbers for calls to be made tomorrow followed by taking out the trash followed by dwelling on this devastating death of my "adopted" brother.

And here I sit. The hour is late and I'm bemoaning the fact that I have so much to say, to process, and absolutely no time to do it. I have some serious bottled up emotions dying to be cathartically emptied onto the page.

I can't even begin. I'm too tired to do them any justice. I'm afraid the moment may never get here. I want to get there. I'm determined to get there.

But first...I have to...need to...sleep.
