Hallelujah, i'm busy and STILL caving in.

I'm busy. So, what else is new? But I'm glad to be busy. My life is full of good things right now. Sure, I wouldn't mind a free afternoon to do laundry and clean and go grocery shopping, but I'll take this sleep deprived, granola bar eating, home-only-to-sleep type of life over being bored any day. These are some good things that are filling (and i do mean FILLING) my days right now:

1)Theater! Every weekday, all day. Teaching theater to little ones. Dressing up like a pirate. Learning how to whip up a production in no time flat. It's a fun job. I know I"ll get tired of this schedule by August, but for now I like it. Also, in addition to teaching, I have rehearsal several hours a week for a show in Vancouver. It feels good to act again.

2)Church. My group of women, my missional community, is my freaking lifeblood. Well, I guess Jesus is, but he sure works through these women. I look forward to every Wednesday night. I also serve at church on Friday nights. I like this community.

3) Weddings and weddingness. Bachelorette parties. Ceremonies. Bridal showers. Oh mylanta. This week alone I went to one wedding, one bachelorette party, and skipped another bachelorette party, another wedding, and a bridal shower. Oh and I have a wedding to go to next weekend. I'm at the point now where I'm just kinda done with it. (Lisa, I understand why you hate weddings now). I don't hate them, though. I'm just tired of them. They really can be fun sometimes. I'm just burned out and broke.

4)Work. I fill in the nooks and crannies of my schedule with my other jobs.

It's good for me to be busy. I don't have time to think and feel things, which I appreciate right now. I'm hurting. Not depressed, but hurting. So It's good to stay busy because life hurts less. I am also learning and growing, and being busy doesn't cut in on that too much. Hallelujah, I'm STILL caving in.
