tired...

Tired. That's my most recent state lately. Tired from working. Tired from working out. Tired of never-ending work projects. I thought I was busy over the holidays, but it was nothing in comparison to this last month. I hope you'll excuse the absence of regular blogging for the last few weeks.

Basically, at work we're redesigning the church web site. I've always been interested in web design, but this project has been overwhelming, and my days off the last few weeks have been few and far between. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy my job. But I also enjoy getting groceries, hanging out with friends, and having a life outside of work, too.
The good news is that my life should return to "normal" soon, whatever that may be.

So, to update you, the last month I have done a few things to add to the launching my life theme. I've taken up swimming once a week in order to vary my fitness routine. I like it, although I'm not very good at it. Surprisingly bad, actually. I'm slow, afraid to get my face wet, but still, I go every Saturday morning in hopes that I will actually get better. We'll see about that. I'm going to get goggles soon, and this week I purchased nose plugs.

Also: I'm going to Jamaica! I'm taking my first missions trip out of the country. I'm so excited to go! I saw the opportunity, and jumped at it. It feels sooo good to see this list come true. And to feel like my life is heading somewhere. It feels really nice to have something to look forward to this spring.

So, yeah, a lot has happened in the last month. But right now, on a blissfully quiet Saturday night home, I think I'm going to take a quick nap. :-)
