notes on a week

this past week was insanely crazy. peter and i are both a little burnt out, and pretty exhausted. as of wednesday i had worked all of my hours for the week, and yet there was more than enough for me to do to round out the week.

friday morning i hit my wall - and all day i heave-hoed through it. saturday morning i decided the best way to get back on track was to sleep in, so sleep in i did. (and did. and did. and did.)

all week i've fought back feelings of depression which are starting to creep in. they'll overwhelm me if i let them, and thus far i've teetered on the edge without succumbing. there is just so much going on and not nearly enough rest.

both yesterday and today peter and i relaxed a bit - reading, napping, catching up on missed tv shows, and i also did some yoga and went tanning yesterday to prepare for our oh-so-close trip to hawaii! i can't believe it's less than a week away now.

i'm excited to get away from it all for a bit, and let's be honest it doesn't hurt that it's in hawaii...but really i'm hoping for sun and rest. granted we're planning lots of fun things like wakeboarding, kayaking, and hiking to name a few, but i'm thankful for the r&r it promises as well.

currently i'm snuggled up on the couch watching pairs figure skating in vancouver. i can't say i ever wanted to be a figure skater, but it has always baffled me. anyone who can make tiny, overly sequined outfits look beautiful and graceful deserves some props, let's be honest.

i'm facing the upcoming week with controlled excitement. we have so much to do before we leave, and even though our trip is so close it doesn't feel nearly as close as it should being a mere 5 days from now.

thank GOD for time away

::EDIT::

this post was three days in the making, hence the friday stamp.

however, it took me until sunday to actually get back to it,

and finish it up.

my apologies for any confusion.
