Head. Spinning. So. Tired.

Well, here I am, it's finally the week before the deadline. Or of the deadline, depending on how you look at it. Drawings are due to our local architect next Monday morning. Which means I need to be done sometime on Friday because I have a very busy weekend planned, and not with work! Needless to say, after a very intense 10.5 hour non-stop cranking day at my desk, I am quite tired.

This post might ramble on somewhat. So, before I veer off on a tangent, I just want to thank you all for the encouraging comments on my last couple of posts. It's no secret that I'm having a tough time right now. Life feels like a bit of a perfect storm of sorts. Knowing you are all out there to listen, and offer support definitely helps me to make it through the tough days. And, sorry in advance if I'm a slacker commenter right now!

In any case, after having nothing in me on last Thursday, we had a very busy, nice, yet frustrating weekend. We went to dinner with friends on Friday night, to see their house which I had offered some decorating advice. Saturday, we had our whole gang over for a bbq. It was really fun to finally entertain in our yard. But, it was a lot of work to get it ready! All those weeds I dug up a few weeks ago came back, so I learned how to weed wack. We also had to get the house cleaned up. In the end, roasting marshmallows over a fire and swinging in the hammock with a yard full of friends made it all worth it.

Unfortunately, stress is getting the best of us these days, and we spent much of the morning and afternoon fighting. And we never fight. But, we managed to table our issues and still got in some hammock time before our guests arrived.

Yesterday was much better in terms of our spirits. We spent some time on bills in the morning (never fun!) And then had time for a lovely bike ride on the Charles River, through Cambridge and Boston. It was my first bike ride of the summer...and probably last! I can't imagine feeling comfortable once the stims start in less than two weeks. And, we all know cycling isn't the best for the swimmers. So I can't be letting Hubby get on a bike for great lengths of time in the next few weeks.

So, anyway, I mostly enjoyed my weekend. And now, it's the crunch to the end of the week. I'm not even going to attempt to do anything productive. Just get to work, and try not to eat junk. That's all I can ask.

Yeah, totally rambling, not even sure what I wanted to say.
