I'm reorganizing the kitchen right now. It gets so disorganized. If they'd only keep the way I keep it, we wouldn't even be having this issue. But are they going to listen? Oh no. Then they wonder why the kitchen is a mess all the time!
 
I sure hope the rest of my semester isn't going to be like this (I don't think it is).

I do have a very busy week, yes. This semester I'm taking four classes, working full-time, and attending three Bible studies (one of which I lead). For the next four weeks I am also volunteering for 6-8 hours per week helping people do their taxes (it really benefits them for obvious reasons but also me professionally). I'm also trying to find time in my schedule for sufficient sleep, exercise, and quite time with God. This is all possible to pull off, but sometimes life happens and it kind of messes things up.
My sister had a really hard year about fours years ago dealing with depression and anxiety and this week that year was the week that it really hit her hard, so this week of the year has been particularly hard for her since then. So I ended up staying up late talking to her on Monday night. Then a friend of mine was admitted to the hospital for pneumonia so I hung out with him until late on Wednesday. Over the past couple days I could sense myself getting sick, so last night I surrendered and skipped class, and then decided to take a sick day today (praise the Lord for PTO). I think all of my lack of sleep is catching up to me. The thing is, I can't skip class every week or take a sick day every week, so I'm hoping that things will slow down a bit.

Also, I read out of My Utmost For His Highest to start off my day today, and it was pretty awesome:

"Get into the habit of saying, 'Speak, Lord,' and life will become a romance." - Oswald Chambers

Hanging out at a park (I am getting paid ti sit and do nothing today). An angry squirrel is in the tree barking at me. Yes. It's a bark. Didn't know they did that. Not a big bark, like from a Great Dane or something, but more of a bark than from a chihuahua or a yorkie.

I said to the squirrel, "You shall hereby be known as 'Cujo.'" It stopped barking, looked at me quizzically, then scampered off to another tree.

I guess not everyone's a Stephen King fan. :)

Squirrels can be... tricky.

Also, the brownies I made this week looked great, smelled wonderful... but totally fell apart when I went to cut them. AND THEY WERE FROM A BOX.

No wonder I'm single. I obviously fail in the house plant and baking categories...
May I suggest...slutty brownies? I made them for my work peeps several months ago and they were a big hit.

Remember, ladies - you don't have to be slutty to catch a man! Just have your brownies be slutty instead!

Everything I eat makes my stomach tie itself in knots. This is why I don't eat when I get stressed enough. The stress settles in my stomach and it just makes a home and then I can't eat.
