I Should Have Been Selling Plumeria Trees

Today's Market was a total wasted effort for me. I am glad I worked hard this week to build my inventory, I do have that much ahead of me. But I could have been home doing more work.

Instead I got up in the middle of the night to drive 110 miles in the dark worrying about deer darting in front of the car. I arrived and got my booth all set up only to have the rain appear for awhile and when it quit the sun shone brightly and so did the heat and humidity. I only had one sale all day long, so this compounded my misery.

After tearing down the booth at the end of the show, loading it in the car and driving home, I was completely exhausted. I tried taking a nap on the couch only to find I couldn't sleep. I got up and took a bath then tried a nap again. I was unconscious (it didn't feel like sleep to me) when my cell phone rang......I was stuporous, and so was the person on the other end, a babbling idiot....and a wrong number to boot!

Since I was up, I tried finding something to eat since all I'd had was a couple of bites of a McDonald's chicken biscuit the first thing this morning. ( I couldn't stomach any more than a couple of bites... it was nasty, even if it was cheap) I nibbled on some sunflower kernels through the day which was really (not) filling. Nothing sounds good, and I feel hungover. I've been sucking down the water, so don't think I'm dehydrated I'm just tired. I tried another nap and again, I passed out....for a short time. My brother and sister-in-law stopped by. So I have given up the idea of a nap...it's getting closer to bedtime now.

I should have been selling Plumeria trees. That's what the vendor next to me was selling, and he was busy most of the day. I bet he doesn't feel as crappy as I.
