the day off on monday was nice though. the kids and i hung around the house and i met my girlfriends for lunch and broke the baby news to them. one looked so shocked, and the other one was screaming. crazy girls! lol
i've dropped tutoring, so that's one less thing on my plate. i kind of feel bad about it because i've had this one student for over a year now and his mom was happy with the situation, but something had to go. i did hook him up with a great replacement, so i know she'll be very happy with her too.
i actually said no to worship practice and girls night out this week, which is major. i hardly ever miss practice and saying no to hanging with the girls is hard to do! they were going to see 27 wedding dresses, but i promised to see it with another friend so i passed.
youth group is at planet wisdom this weekend. i also said no to that, which is also big. i really wish i were there, but i have so much that needs done this weekend with school and around the house so i'm glad i'm not too. i hate to miss elisabeth's soccer game and pawn her off on someone else too.
so far this week for my classes, i wrote a 3 page paper giving my testimony (citing Bible verses where required), caught up on a week's worth of math and did the review tests, answered ten lengthy questions for psychology, and read genesis. (exodus is due to be read by monday or tuesday) i have some verses i need to refresh myself on and say from memory and a big OT survey test to study for, along with more psych questions and a paper.
also coming up this week are a chiropractor appointment for nick (to try to come at his headaches from another direction), my first ob visit for the baby, a meeting at my house monday night (my trashed house that needs cleaned because i'm too busy all of the time) and a couple of birthday parties.
i think i need to schedule in some sleep in there sometime, i've been taking naps every evening around 6:00, so that's been helping a lot. but since morning sickness kicked in this past week, i've been fighting that too.
once we get past this week, hopefully things can calm down a bit.....but nah, they probably won't, it's our life. we stay busy (too busy sometimes) but i love it. i wouldn't trade working with youth or singing in worship for anything, and if it weren't a bit crazy i'd get bored.
as sunflowers constantly turn toward the sun, i strive to face the SON throughout the day. many days i fail to keep my focus. it is my dream to one day become a beautiful sonflower
