overwhelmed

Overwhelmed. That pretty much sums up my life at the moment. That, and exhausted. Work is just a huge bunch of stuff that seems to be pulling me in a million different directions at once, more than usual. I'm still trying to figure out why and how this happens, but it certainly does it in August, so that's a start. I am also mentally and physically exhausted, which means that most of my defenses to be dealing with stress are weakened. I need some reinforcements!

thought of the afternoon

Cause: I ate too much lunch.
Effect: I'm very full.

lack o' posting

Yes, it's true, I haven't posted in a while. I still have pictures and stories to post from Kenya, and my canoe trip with Jenafer, but I haven't gotten all of those pictures compiled yet, so it's going to be a little bit longer.
My philosophy on blogging, and being online, is complicated. While I am a self-proclaimed email addict, I also have been coming to realize that I don't want to spend all of my time on the computer writing about things I'm doing; I want to be doing those things! :) Go figure, huh? Sometimes it's tough to find that balance, to feel like I'm doing well at juggling all of the balls I've got in the air, of which there are certainly a lot.
Lately, I've been doing a lot of traveling/exploring, trying to keep on top of the busy season at work, and spending lots of time with Chris. All of those have combined to lead me to somewhat neglect my posting. I've not forgotten about it entirely, but some times are just more sparse than others. Oh and another thing, it's summer and really nice weather, and I am wanting to spend as much time outside as I can enjoying it.
So please pardon the lack of posting about my life...I've been quite busy living it!
