six

Woo hoo! Today was my sixth day of exercise in a row. So far in this initial week, the "Six days shalt thou exercise" has been a good motivator—especially if you're achievement driven like I am. We'll see how long this plan survives as a motivator.  That being said, though, I can't tell you how sincerely much I am looking forward to a sabbath from exercise tomorrow.

We spent much of the day in meetings with our guest, and our co-workers here. The meetings were fine, and there was actually more free time in-between that I had expected. I got a few e-mails answered and posted a 3-page paper for the on-line class. Just one more big paper left to go, and I'll be done!

Speaking of e-mails, I feel like I'm falling behind so badly. It seems whenever I get one batch cleared up, in comes a huge influx of new messages. At this point all I can do is save them, flagging the ones I need to respond to. It tends to feel a little overwhelming!

I also slipped out of the group stuff for a few hours to join a ladies' get-together that our church was hosting. Just five of us showed up, but we organizers foresaw this problem (since the date is sandwiched between two holidays). The get-together was held at the coffee shop where I usually have my half day with God. It was a good reminder that I need to have one of those again sometime soon.

Well, tomorrow is the wedding of my best friend from college, and house-mate after that. It's pretty neat for a number of reasons, and I wish her all the best in her marriage (not just the wedding day!). If she reads this blog (which is something ANYONE would love to do on their honeymoon, right?) she can know I'm thinking of her. Sorry I can't be there!

Besides that, I don't have much to say. I have nodded off quite a few times here in the last hour or so trying to write this blog. Wondering how many of you out there have fallen asleep with your "laptop" computer on their laptop. Scary! Bad jolt when you wake up an realize what you have done. Sigh of relief.

So, good night before I really fall asleep and drop my computer on the floor. That would be bad. I hope someday soon things will slow down a bit more, and I will be able to expend more time and energy on these posts.
