Just Exhausted

I knew this was going to happen but I was hoping I could delay it. It doesn't seem so. I have reached a point where I am just swamped. I'm still teaching summer school and those two hours a day take me about 4 hours to prepare for. I have class on Monday and Wednesday night that is 3 hours long each night and has a ton of work with it. I have 'field trips' every Tuesday that take a lot of time. And I have a 4 hour class every Thursday night that requires a ton of work. I've reached the point where I am just exhausted. I'm not getting my workouts in, the dogs aren't getting much exercise, I'm not spending much time with the bird or the hubby. Ugh!!!! The good thing is summer school ends next week. The bad thing is regular school starts before my classes end. So for the two weeks I'm off I want to get lesson plans done for the entire rest of my classes. I figure if I'm spending 4 hours getting 2 hours worth of lessons ready, how long is it going to take me to get 6 hours ready?!?!?!? UGH!!!!!! August 19th my classes end and I am really looking forward to that. I only have one class in fall and that is my teaching internship. So, I'm exhausted and just want to lie down and sleep. I can't do that because I have to teach a class, read 3 chapters in a book, take notes, write a letter, and have this all done before 4 pm. Yeah, that's going to happen...... At least Friday is a holiday - I'm looking forward to that......

Thank goodness for the holiday on Friday! Hang in there!

Sometimes you have to take a step back

 that's what I did this week. I did not look or think about my business all week. Okay, that's not entirely true, I thought about it...
