Eyes open! NOW!

9:08 am. Someone is knocking on my door. I try and open my eyes. It doesnt work. i lay in my bed for a few moments. i sit up. eyes open. i said eyes OPEN! one opens, i peer out my window. ah god bright light! i vaguely see a green truck parked out front, the peer to my left and see a blue blob dragging a garbage can behind the tree. ugh, its mom. i walk downstairs to my front door and open it slightly. i finally get my other eye to open. i still cant really see, my eyes are blurred. i walk to the kitchen and make coffee. im really looking foward to this coffee. as it brews i go back to the front door. "oh hey leanne." i wave. i would try to speak but there is no point. words just arent going to make it out of my mouth yet. so i open the screen door and wave her in. she says "I'm a mess so i wont come in" as she walks in the door. i think then why did u knock?! she even has a note prepared incase i dont answer, that she gives me anyways. why didnt u just leave the note i think. i tell her to go around the back. "what?" clear my throat a little and whisper go around the back! so i meet her around the back. but first i staggered into the bathroom to grab my rose lisa took off our garden. the perfect rose she gave me. i must show mom cause we didnt do anything to our roses and its perfect. shes been trying for years to get her roses to this state. i show her. she loves it. i love it. i then muster up the words to talk. i still really cant see right but that wont happen til around noon. i say about one sentence the whole time shes here, as shes telling me what i need to do inside and out. i never thought the day would come where im showing my mother my gardens that lisa has done such and awesome job on. mom starts to leave. i cant remember what she said while she was her. except "give me a hug" as she leaves. i sit here drinking my coffee thinking about my bed. its calling me again. i have to go it needs me. good night. i mean good morning. ill see you in the afternoon.
