Between the wedding season, busting my balls to get a promotion at work, late nights procrastinating on horrid calculus quizzes, planning Christmas parties and basketball tournaments (who has time to volunteer anyway????), pitching to host a new parenting blog in a local newspaper, keeping up with the house, not to mention a teething toddler... life is busy, although comparably good, yet it's driving me absolutely bonkers.
Thing is, I know that everything's a decision and amidst all the chaos, this guilt-ridden rookie mom still manages to spend time with Ethan. I am very blessed to have a husband who would do the laundry while I do my Math homework and get Ethan ready in the morning so I could have a few extra minutes of sleep.
Still, I am burnt out and in DIRE need of a vacation.
That's why Friday CANNOT come any faster... where we get to hop on a plane to Sunny California and spend a week surrounded by family and friends and where the gas prices are somehow shadowed by the endless possibilities for recreation. I wish I could say that I am able to leave all my worries here, but truth of the matter is, I surmise that I will end up in front of a computer at some point or another tending to obligations I'm supposed to be escaping from in the first place.
There I go again... stressing out about getting stressed out when I'm supposed to be UNstressing on vacation.
Ah well, ces't la vie.

kim,
it's for the gazz blogs (wv gazette). they were looking for a writer for one of the food blogs so I "applied" thinking it would be an excuse for me to try out all the restaurants in the area, lol, and i sent them a link to this blog... and the editor contacted me for a meeting to possibly start and write a parenting blog to add to their current lineup. I can be a professional blogger! hahaha... that might actually be interesting.
