  • I hit the wall...

    It is hard to admit it - I have been doing my best to stay on top of this full time work/15 hour class load, but it has finally gotten the best of me.  Yesterday I hit the wall - it is either continue in the way that I have and lose my mind, or cut back on something...so I made the decision to drop one of my classes [preceded by much weeping and gnashing of teeth ]. 
    It is hard to admit that I cannot do it all.  Hard to not look at this as failure.  Tomorrow I am going to go and talk to the professor of the class that I am planning to drop.  I am praying and hoping that when I speak with him, that he will perhaps let me finish the class and take an incomplete which would mean that I could continue to sit in the class and get the information, but be able to defer anymore of the assignments until later.  If you think about it, pray for favor and that this will work out - it is the only way that I see being able to complete this semester.
    So there you go.  I am off to study...

  • I am proud of you for saying that.....

  • Knowing one's limitations AND being KIND enough to one's self to put that boundary on them is a BEAUTIFUL thing. HARD, but it'll set ya' free! I'm PROUD of you too! There is no failure in speaking truth. =) I'm praying even now. Let us know how it turns out if you get a chance. I know you're super swamped. LOVE you.

  • praying for you!!  Hang in there!

  • praying for favor! It's not the end result that matters it's how you make the journey. Ok that was all said to mean. No worries about dropping a class. Your sanity is live long a class is a few months. :P

  • Bless your heart.  I'm glad that you are taking a step toward making things better for YOU!  Way to go.

  • It's so hard to recognize changes that need to be made and then to actually act on them! Good for you. Good luck!!

  • I am doing good! Getting ready for Natalie's b-day party tomorrow! This past year has just floooooown by. Not only just her.... but everything going on. I can't count the number of times I've said "I'll do that tomorrow...." and then tomorrow comes and goes..... and so on. It's crazy! But I'm thankful for the past year. It has been a blessing, that's for sure.
