Busy but really good!

The past two weeks have just flown by. Most of it has been a bunch of typical stuff, nothing out of the ordinary, some of it has been just unexpected and really great!

The first few days back to work after break were rough. I went from being on a total high from break to emotionally crashing a bit. I spent a little too much time thinking and stressing out about things that I'd like to have control over but don't always. Not to mention I worked a little over 55 hours that week and had to finish the project that my whole grade was based on for my grad class. This was overly stressful. I started working on the project Tuesday when we normally would have had class (it was cancelled since my professor was out of town). I spent 3 1/2 hours in the library trying to figure out what was expected and how to put that into some logical form. The expectations and directions for the project were vague and almost non-existent making all of us feel pretty clueless. Long story short, I spent another 7 hours in the library on the following Sunday finishing the project. It was a really long, hard day, but it was done, and I handed it in at class on Tuesday and I just found out I got an A!! I'm not sure how but I'll take it. 

This week was significantly less stressful but just as busy as usual. Still 50+ hours of work and my last grad class to fill that time but a couple good meals with friends added to the joy factor. I also got a call on Thursday about a job interview about a full time teaching position for next school year which will happen Monday afternoon. That got me super nervous but also excited! 

I'm looking forward to having my Tuesday evenings more free and hopefully regaining a little bit of my sanity.
