I have been whining for a few weeks now about feeling over stressed and exhausted. I have been staying at work late (like last night, 9pm) and I still felt like there was no hope. I feel like maybe, just maybe, there is some relief in my future. This week has been an especially rough week, emotionally for me. I’ve been all over the place.
Today, I feel, dare I say – pretty awesome. I didn’t sleep great, but I slept enough. I don’t feel tired, I don’t have a headache, I don’t even have that twinge in my back that reminds me it’s Friday after sitting at registration all last night.
My plan for this weekend is pretty simple, rest, organize, clean and maybe start picking paint for the other room. Totally doable. Oh yeah, and go see our girls bball team play. I love weekends that have no structure or need out of them.
Are you planning on an awesome weekend? You deserve one!

I'm a 30-something yoga-lovin', tea-drinkin' high school teacher struggling to find my place in this crazy world. My blog focuses on my journey to lose weight, get healthy, and our attempts to become a family of three. I spend a lot of time exploring and embracing Akron, often photo-documenting my trips. Everything else is just the glitter in my life that adds to who I am.

I think you gave the answer yourself – have hope.
Things work out. A lot of things aren’t worth getting stressed about. Do you remember what you were stressed about this time last year?
Take control of the things you can control and deal with the rest. Make a plan for the important stuff so it doesn’t get lost amid all of the daily noise. Get a massage (you knew that was coming!) and make time to take care of yourself and what you want to be doing.
