As a child anytime I was taking a trip I would wake up hours before departure with excitement of the adventure. I'm still just as excited. However, when my alarmed pierced my ears this morning I didn't jump out of bed. This last week all my time has been slipping away from me. Sleeping hasn't come easy. Especially after returning home from hanging out with some new friends realizing we could not get into our loft. The lock was completely jammed. We both tried and tried our separate keys over and over. No use, it wasn't bugging not even a little bit. We waited and ended up falling in and out of sleep in the lobby while we waited over two hours for help to come. By 3 am, we busted through the door and I ran straight to bed.
Our lives are continually getting busier as I'm working, starting school, picking up speed our a social life, and ted changing positions at work. I have a large bruise on my right side to a test to how I've been rushing around from one place to the next. Running late I was rushing through the gate to make the subway and slammed my side.
Sitting at the airport waiting to board my flight, I'm realizing this is the first time I've had time to sit just about all week. I'm planning on my 'second wind' to hit before I land, pick up my rental, and head to a bachlorette party.
Tomorrow I am meeting up with my mom, dad, and brother for lunch. Besides wedding bliss, I'm eagerly looking forward to some time with my family.

I feel ya...we have been so incredibly busy in the last month and there are days when I honestly can't remember what I did the day before because it is all blurring together. The other night I was journaling about this very same topic and I realized that we are blessed to be so busy and I would rather go to bed exhausted every night (even though I may have early wrinkles and gray hair haha) knowing I spent my day well rather than sit around bored. We are having moments, making memories and sharing life with those around us. But I admit I do try to squeeze in some pj + couch + movie days when I can! :)
I really do hope that you don't run yourself too thin.. though it sounds like you may have already. :(
Here's some unsolicited advice...
Maybe pencil in some time for yourself. Light some scented candels and soak in the tub with your music on, eyes closed, and let your mind wander. Relaxation can do a tired mind and body just wonders. When you're at ease, or even if you get the slightest pick-me-up, your zest for adventure, your excitiment will perk up.
Sending you love and pixie dust dearie.
