For what it is worth, here are a few quick bullets of what is going on, that are pretty random...
- LIFE is busy!!!! April - we had spring break, and went to Disney and Jacksonville and the Charleston area - lots of fun with friends and family... Here are two pics of the family from that trip... Both favorites, because they all look so darn happy!!! I am a blessed wife/mom!
- Work has been CRAZY busy - way busier than usual which I guess is good, but also hard to balance everything else with. Honestly, I just want to get thru the end of the school year and into the summer. For some reason I think that things will calm down - but I am probably kidding myself. At least I have Lucia's summer camp schedule firmed up (phew!).
- My weight is "ehhhh"... I have put on about 7 pounds since Easter, in mostly liquid intake (i.e. Chardonnay, milk shakes, etc...). I am finding myself making poor choices, and really need to refocus myself to get into a better place subconciously. I say subconciously, because the choices tend to be stress-related, and going back to those old habits of "something-goes-wrong-or-is-hard-so-I-choose-to-eat" mindset, although now I choose to drink... or eat something crappy like a slider food. So, at least I recognize it - now to change that behavior... I know I can do it - just have to really refocus myself TO DO IT.
- A lot of my stress has been from trying to decide what to do for Lucia about school next year - long story short, where she is hasn't been working out as well as we would like, and ultimately we think she'll do better in another setting... so we FINALLY decided that she'll be going to a new school next year, which we are all excited about. In fact, I dropped off the registration paperwork and deposit this morning. YAY!
- As I am getting just a bit closer to 40 (still have a good long way to go), I have been having lots of "what-am-I-doing-with-my-life" conversations in my head. Sometimes I need to tell myself to shut up. However, "career-Sarah-who-was-supposed-to-be-head-of-HR-somwhere-by-now" keeps cropping up and telling the other Sarah (I.E. "Sarah-who-chose-to-work-for-an-amazing-company-at-a-slightly-lower-salary-and-job-responsbility-level-because-it-was-the-right-thing-to-do-for-the-whole-family-and-oh-who-loves-her-job-and-never-takes-work-home) that she made a mistake... Career-Sarah needs to shove it and go away! I wish I could get her out of my head.
- I am bummed out but will not be able to make it to BOOBS 3.0 this year - not an easy decision, but it is what it is.
