I think I need a wife...

Seriously, work is crazy right now and therefore so is life. I got thinking this morning while running on the treadmill...even though Derek and I share most of the responsibilities, I am still the one that kind of runs the house. I schedule the calendar, I pick whats for dinner, I usually make the move to start dinner or pack lunches or start cleaning...even if Derek does help out I don't think they would get done if I wasn't taking the lead. I guess that seems pretty normal though, I mean usually it is the women in the house that does that sort of stuff, regardless if both partners work...it's just in our nature. Anyways, I got thinking how great it would be to have a wife. I know it sounds horrible and I don't mean it in a gender biased way at all. I just can't imagine not having to worry about what's for dinner, when is cleaning going to get done, what chores are there to do, etc...
What got me thinking about this? Well, I got some news at work, good and bad news. The good news is...I'm getting my promotion, FINALLY! The bad news is that my next project is in St. Cloud, MN...70 miles from my house. I will be in the car 3 hours a day, 5 days a week. That's 140 miles a day, 700 miles a week! Have I mentioned to you all how much I HATE to drive. Yeah, what am I getting into? Business is slow though and at least I have a job and at least I will be compensated for the driving.
Needless to say though, I am stressed out. I have a billion things on my plate right now and all I keep thinking about is "who is going to run the house". Derek takes care of his stuff and he is great at keeping up on the lawn, trash, bills, etc... but if he was left to run the house I'm pretty sure he would only clean about once a month and his idea of a good dinner is sitting down with a bag of chips and a jar of salsa. We have some major changes ahead of us. I can say that along with my nerves I have excitement. It will be a great project and an awesome team. I'm just not so sure about that drive!
I have to run, but I promise to update more later this week. The weight front is going well. The scale started to move in the right direction this week so hopefully I can record a loss this week!!!
