WOW-- cannot believe it's been three weeks since I blogged. But then again, I can. It's been crazy during the week trying to (as always) balance motherhood, student duties, and recovery. But I do try my best. That's all I can do: pray and keep trying. But, with the exception of last weekend, it's been crazy on the weekends as well as during the week -- crazy good though.
The weekend after I came back from Yosemite from the Soroptomist International Awards Ceremony, I took my younger child to two California amusement parks, tickets courtesy of a family friend. All I had to do was come up with accomodations (which someone approached me about sharing, read: sharing the cost) and so it was set. Even though I had a Midterm in one of my classes the following Monday (meaning I'd only be able to study in the car, the hotel, and at the parks themselves) I went anyways. And, it was worth it. I actually took my book in with me to one of the amusement parks and I got an "A" on the Midterm, so who says you can't mix fun and work!!!
Last weekend, we had two BBQs to go to, plus a committee meeting of mine on Sunday. The Teen Challenge Program came and spoke at the church I attend, which was really cool to see. It's nice to see acceptance of mistakes on a grand level -- I can definitely relate to big mistakes and acceptance from others, and I and my children benefited from seeing the program participants doing well also.
So, I realize this blog entry is mostly about my weekends and not much about my weeks, but I am living a full life and happy to share it.
By the way, check out my new "Inspirational" music list. I needed the lift and hopefully you all will find it useful as well.
