The light at the end of the tunnel


What a month!! This past weekend was my dance recital Extravadance. It was wonderful but completely exhausting! We have been working extra hard to get everything looking great so that means extra and late rehearsals. This week is my last week before Thanksgiving break so I have have a lot to get done before we head to California and that includes the house that has not even been lived in for the last two weeks... but some how is a disaster!! We can't see our bedroom floor, the dishes are piled up, the living room has everything thrown around, and there are leaves are covering the kitchen floor... I know... how you may ask did leaves get into your house but I do not have an answer... All I know is that I have wife duties screaming my name and begging to be done!

I have been grateful for Michael, I am a pain when I am hungry and tired but he has been putting up with my moodiness. He brought me dinners on his breaks, gave me lots of hugs and kisses, and came to my recital. He is a wonderful support.

With three weeks left of school I am starting to gain hope that this semester of 19 credits will end and I will live! At times I truly thought my life was never going to move forward and I would be stuck in this 19 credit semester! I have a lot to do before this semester is over but I know it will end! The downer part of this semester ending... besides my sewing classes... is next semester which will be a 21 credit semester!! I registered the day before Michael did so he asked me to register for some of his classes because they were filling up but I couldn't... I guess there is a limit of how many hours of school you are going to! I did the calculations and I am in class 37 hours a week!! That is 2 hours short of a full time job!! I wonder how many hours I will be in class next semester with 21 credits!! Wooh!

  1. At the end of the Sunshine Dance, Shaun and I both cried! I thought that was amazing how a dance could make me cry. You look so beautiful in this picture.

    I looked at you in church today and I thought, "Lauren is such a good person! She can handle so many things and has so much to give and share." I like you! :)

    Oh yeah, I seriously keep finding leaves all over my house, too. LOL
