i realized today it's been several weeks since my last post. things are so busy. i'd give just about anything for a week to relax without the stresses of work and life hanging over my head like a dark cloud. i don't see that happening any time in the foreseeable future. the next "real" time off will likely be christmas, and that is never very relaxing. i think that's the hard thing about living so far from family. all of our vacations are spent driving to see family. we spend at least 2 days in the car (usually more) and then days are packed with activities. it's stressful. but i guess we did choose to live here so i should have assumed that would be part of the deal. and besides, i feel like things were just as crazy when our families were no more than a couple hours away.
i'm feeling really great lately. things seem to be progressing well. i've cheated on my diet a lot lately--partly because there were no other options, partly because i was so sick of salad. honestly, you'd think there would be something other than a salad that i could eat on the menu. but, no. so even though it's made me feel kinda crappy, ive had pizza and ice cream in the last week. oh and birthday cake. but that wasn't my fault. when someone (who doesn't know about your dietary needs) makes you a birthday cake, you eat it. and you enjoy it. because cake is good. aaaahhh i digress....
so anyway, things are great here. i see my doctor again on september 1. my parents come the next day. i guess there are good things to look forward to :-)
