Since blogging seems to be the new craze, I thought I would give it a try. My life is pretty much sumed up in the title of this blog, My Crazy, Hectic Life... In December of last year I started working full time again, after being off for almost two years. I took a position at a nursing home where I work as a Certified Nurses Assistant (CNA) I work Thursday - Sunday, third shift, 11p - 7a Thursday and Friday and 7p - 7a Saturday and Sunday. In January of this year, I also started my last round of student teaching for my Associates Degree in Education at Athens Technical College. So right now my weeks consist of student teaching Monday - Friday and working Thursday - Sunday. Needless to say, this doesn't leave me much time to do anything else.
Speading myself as thin as I do, it makes it pretty difficult to maintain a social life. I have however here recently decided that sometimes, getting out of the house for a couple hours to go on a date, or do something fun with friends, is well worth the lack of sleep I will have to sacrifice. Sometimes I just need a break... My friends think I'm crazy for the schedule that I keep right now, and so does everyone else that hears about it, but it's the only way I'll get things done quickly. And at this point in my life, getting done and into a classroom as quickly as possible is number one on my list of things to do.
Someone told me not long ago, that I just need to remember that "It's only temporary" and trust me, some days, that's the only way I make it through. This is the same person that introduced me to the world of distance running... for SPORT... not because someone was chasing me... LOL... I have grown to love it in the last couple months and try to run as much as my schedule allows. I'm losing weight at record speeds and it's a huge form of stress relief for me.
Well... I think that's enough about me for now... I'll post later about the wonderful weekend I had... Lack of sleep and all...
