Exhausted

After being in Seattle, I am finally feeling like this is home. Unfortunately I have over committed myself so much that I have had little time to take care of myself. Two weekends ago I went to a cabin in the woods and just hung out. It was really fun to get away. Last weekend I went to a retreat with my church (bethany) and met a lot of people my age and that was really fun also. This last weekend i was supposed to go to Young Life Camp, but there were 7 guy students so all 6 guy leaders didn't need to go. So i stayed home. I worked Saturday so it was good that I stayed home.

Due to all my commitments I haven't made time to spend with friends just hanging out, having fun. I'm working from about 7am-7pm and our company just started layoffs so it's not going to get easier. every weekday night i have something going on except thursdays, but then i book my thursdays out so i don't have any nights free. So soon I will need to cut something out. Unfortunately I know what needs to go, but I don't want to let it go yet.

Today i spent the better part of 10 hours cleaning my room. I got rid of some junk i had in boxes, but didn't get rid of it all. Although it's nice to get rid of a lot of junk, it was not a fun day. :-P I just hope i can keep it clean for a while now that it's clean.

The next few weeks are going to be really busy at work. I have to learn my new responsibilities with the person leaving, we have all our other work that is half a month behind and also we have an audit. So my hours will only increase.

So right now i'm feeling really overwhelmed. Even though i had a day off today...i need a day off! I guess what i really need is a sabbath. This just came to me right now, so i guess i'm going to do that next Saturday or sunday. Cancel my plans and sabbath it up.
