I have had a crazy and busy couple of weeks. I work more than I do anything else and I am not digging it. I can't remember the last time I spent more than 10 minutes with my husband. I've seen my girls all of maybe 8 hours combined all week. I'm not okay with this.
I know it will get easier soon. Last week was crazy because I was planning day-to-day since I had no idea if I would stay a split or not. This week has been better planning-wise but things aren't 100% set yet with some things at school so I'm still feeling behind a lot and trying to get caught up. The first couple of weeks are always the worst.
No matter what, I am leaving school tomorrow at 3:30 p.m. with nothing but my purse. I am taking the weekend OFF. No school work whatsoever. I am going up north and enjoying a weekend with my girls (sadly my hubby won't make it because of class stuff for himself). Hopefully I can refrain from sleeping the entire weekend :)
I have lots of stuff I want to write about for the blog but haven't had the time. Hopefully I can be caught up and back on top of things by the middle of next week so I can get back to "normal"!

I COMPLETELY understand! The first few weeks are absolute murder. It's really hard to have to sacrifice so much time with your family. My husband is definitely an August/September "widower," I can't sleep past 3:30am no matter how late I stay up because I'm thinking over everything that has to be done that day and worried that things will collapse because I'm still getting to know the kids and how they operate, and my to-do list continues to grow, grow, grow. Weekends? What are those? And let's not get started on Sunday nights...
ReplyDeleteBut, the bright side is knowing that in another couple of weeks things will settle down and a routine will be established. Maybe get to spend a little more time with that wonderful guy who cleans the kitchen on Friday afternoons before I get home because he knows how much it stresses me out to have an unkempt counter!
Good luck with your school year! Love your blog!
