RANT

The carefree days of summer are OVER.
I hate my life... for the next two weeks. Make the insanity stop!!!

I resent being busy from the moment I wake up until the moment my bed hits the pillow at 1am. I resent having to ignore phone calls just because I honestly do not have the time to answer them. I resent having to be the bad news bear and tell everyone NO. I hate not having a spare minute to call the people I care about most. I hate having to juggle responsibilities coming at me from numerous different communities all at once (hall staff, my field placement site, the MDiv program, my family....). The only place I want to be right now is in the arms of the one I love, and it makes me so mad that I won't be able to be there anytime in the next two weeks. I hate the fact that when I get stressed out like this I turn into the biggest jerk ever and have the shortest fuse imaginable. I'm trying to be charitable, but I feel like I want to bite someone's head off.

It's times like these I realize the need for self-care. All that I need is some quiet time, some time for me. But the bad thing is, I won't get that for another week or so. And that also makes me really mad!

I did not anticipate that this week would be so terribly insane.

Prayer for the week: Please God, give me patience and fortitude, and QUICK!

  1. Praying for you Rachel!! One day at a time, friend. I have been busy too, and out of town every weekend recently, so we will have to catch up and finish our conversation the next time there is a (relative) lull in the hubbub. :)
