A week of 4 S's....

This past week was a week of S's......

My first S is SCHOOL...UGH. I started my long 8 week stretch back to school. The postive thing is there are only 8 (now 7) weeks left until summer begins! Unfortunately, I am not sure how I am going to get everything I need to get done in that SHORT amount of time!!

Second S is for STRESS!!! I am ofically truly stressed out. I am trying not to let it affect me, yet it has. In my last term at school I have chosen to 1. take 9 units and 2. save 2 of the worst classes for last. Way to go! The two classes are both online and require a TON of work to be done. I feel so overwhelmed with my homework on top of making sure things are good at work that I have reached my limit!!!! Luckily I have my running as a release, but finiding time for that is getting to become stressful too! When does it stop? :-(

Third S is for SLEEP. Due to my massive amount of stress I have been getting to bed WAYYYY past my bedtime. I am now officially sleep deprived. When I haven't gotten enough sleep and I am physically tired, my right eye twitches non-stop. It has not stopped twitching um...since MONDAY! It is making putting mascara on very difficult. I would like the twitching to stop, please! :-)

The last and final S which is my favorite S of all is for....SADIE KAY STAHLER!!! My new niece Sadie was born on 4-24-09 at 12:47 pm (Texas time). She was 20.5 inches and 7 pounds 4 ounces! She is absolutely perfect. I am already so in love with my little Sadie lady :-) I can't wait to see her in June when I go visit Kay and Rob! Kay and Rob are both doing great and so excited to be new parents! This new little girl is such a blessing to their lives.

This week I am going to focus on the letter R :-) My first R is for rest...I need it somehow :-) The next is relaxation, I am going to take one day to just relax. My last R is for Running! On May 3rd, I will be running in the OC 1/2 Marathon. It will be my 6th 1/2 marathon!!! I will be hoping to run it in under 2 hours. Keep your fingers crossed :-)
