I think I’m in over my head. Strike that, I’m in over my head. I’m taking 15 hours in Lawrence and 3 online. I’m working a job that has me doing a lot of traveling twelve to twenty hours a week. I babysit one afternoon a week for four hours. All with splitting migraines, trying to track which foods I am eating and how my head seems to respond to them, trying to be a frugal housewife, and hoping to see my husband and spend some quality time (since we are both quality time people). I leave and drive for an hour before daylight every morning and usually start heading home after it is dark again.
I’m good about using short breaks in my day to have a quiet time and using my time in the car to pray or listen to books on tape (I’m rereading-well, this time I’m listening-to Francine River’s Mark of the Lion series–serious inspiration and reminder of the beauty of a fully devoted Christian woman). Our church is clearing out the library to make room for more Sunday School classes; yesterday one of the things on the free resources table was the New Testament on audio cassette. I snatched that up and am now able to listen to scripture in the morning and evening too. I noted this morning that I pick up very different parts/aspects of the bible when I hear it read than I do when I read it–yay! for that.
I’m getting forgetful!
I also use my breaks to work on homework so that I have less that needs done when I finally get home. But I’m just barely staying afloat. I just need to give it my best and make the most out of it until May.
I’m excited for summer!
