Dog tired.

Today I am extremely tired. I have so much to do before we leave tomorrow to my parent's. Plus I have to work all freaking day, so all I am thinking about is all the stuff I need to do and it's making me more tired just thinking about it. Tonight is going to be a long night. I am not sleeping well the past night or two. Especially last night. I could not stay asleep, I kept waking up every so often to flip over or get up to pee. Also, I have this breakout/rash type deal that occasionally comes up in the crease of my leg/groin and it just burns like it's on fire and I try putting medicated powder on it to help. It usually passes after a couple days or so, but I don't know what it is. Yeast maybe? I just hope it's gone by tomorrow. I don't really feel like walking miles through airports with it on there. Ugh.
Last night I had the craziest dream. Well, not too crazy. I dreamed we finally landed in Reno and were waiting at the gate/door/some area for my family to meet us, when they finally showed up. (Mind you I have not seen my brothers or mom or dad in almost 2.5 years) I saw my youngest brother first (13) and he ran up to hug me and I just started bawling. Then my mom and dad. Finally, my middle brother(21, became paralyzed in car wreck in 2011 and I have not seen him since they all moved). It was amazing, my brother STOOD up out of his wheel chair to hug me. It was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. I am crying right now just typing this out, thinking about how wonderful it would be if this could really happen. But, I know it won't. I still have hopes that one day he will regain the feeling in his legs again. One day. It's been rough on my whole family, and since we have all been apart for all the time he's been disabled, I have not been able to be there to help with him. I feel terrible about it. But, it is kind of hard to be able to do those things from 2,000+ miles away. I hope that one day my husband and our family can move closer. It's just got us in such a hard/weird place because his whole family is here and mine is not, with the exception of some cousins and great aunts and uncles, whom we NEVER see or hardly communicate with. Sad.
Anyways, I'm so ready to get off work and get home to get the house cleaned up a bit, finish laundry, fold every stitch of clothing we own almost, pack, make sure we have not forgotten anything, load the car up, lay out our clothes for tomorrow/travel and get some sleep before we have to get up and be gone from our house by 11-12am tomorrow in order to get to the Atlanta airport by 5-6ish to get through check-in/security by our flight at 8:40pm. Not looking forward to this overnight layover in Phoenix for 9 freaking hours. Ugh. Say a prayer for my husband and I. I'm sure we are going to be exhausted by the time we get to my mom and dad's. But, I cannot wait to see them! Not to mention we get to give them their Christmas gifts and see them open that picture of our announcement! So nervous!
