Speeding!

Happy Thursday!! 
As you all know, my blog is titled "Life in the fast lane" because of how busy my lifestyle is up here in college. Well, lately I feel like the term "fast lane" is being taken way to lightly. I am exhausted!  If any of you read my blog from the beginning of the month I talked about how excited I was to have something fun going on every weekend of October....I take it back now! Well, disclaimer- I do love everything that has been going on in October and it has been a lot of fun, but I am just exhausted. Usually between work, student teacher hours, and church on the weekends I have time to tie up lose ends on homework, do chores, relax, rejuvenate, and get everything ready for the upcoming week....but that is NOT happening lately. I've prioritized my extra time on weekends to homework or school work- therefore chores, and "me" time is not happening a lot.  And it's not like I am busy with hard things to do- my weekends are filled with friends, kickbacks, and other fun things...the only problem is it is go-go-go.  There hasn't been a break in all the work or play this month and finally it is all catching up with me.  I surprisingly finished my homework for the week at a decent time last night, so i went home and spend over an hour giving my apartment the cleaning it needed, and then finished off the night with my roommate as we just worked on a puzzle and watched a movie...it was so NICE! I felt so good today waking up!
Tonight Michelle comes into town!! I am so excited to see her, it is going to be so great to spend the non-stop weekend with her!! I will be exhausted to hang out with her....she is worth the little rest and "me" time i will not get!  We're going to go to the pumpkin patch and carve pumpkins, as well as have an early Halloween party because she wont be here next weekend for that. Should be a fun weekend! At least my homework is done for the week! 

PS...I tried to upload my baptism DVD, but are unable to. So sorry for that but if I figure out a way I will do it for all of you to see....Lauren did an amazing job with the video!

Have fabulous weekends everyone! Enjoy the winter weather! This weather makes me want to sit on my couch with my dogs watching a movie with my family and eating popcorn made fresh from our popcorn maker....as it rains outside.  <3
