Choices

Let's just say I have something weighing on my mind.

I am not writing this to be dramatic or anything, it's just that my blog is like my diary and writing is a way that I process and think.  I have a decision to make and I am pretty sure what I want to do, but I kind of have to put a few pieces of the puzzle together before I can truly decide. I am usually the type to have a tough time keeping secrets. I can keep other people's secrets, but I have a hard time not sharing what is going on with me because I am all about full disclosure. At this moment, I am not ready to share on the blog, but I will, once I truly get it figured out. I just read a post the other day about how blog readers are not super fond of cliff hangers...I am not intending to lure you in only to keep some big unexplained secret, but like I said I am still processing and thinking. When the time is right, I will share, I promise!

I find it really hard to focus on other things, when something really importance is hanging in the balance. I have to study for the driving test (again), I have to create a pre-test for one of the classes I am taking, and I have to collaborate with my partner in Portland via a phone call at 3:00pm so that I can get enough info about her student to create said pre-test. Nothing crazy, but enough things to result in my stress level rising right now. I would say I am a pretty determined person, so once something gets in my head, it's there until I make it happen. Right now, it's just there and hopefully I can get this situation figured out sooner rather than later or I might go nuts.

Anyway, I guess I just need kind words today and I know if I can count on anyone, I can count on bloggy friends for that!

Sorry you are feeling the stress...I hope today brings you some relaxation and peace. Get a good workout in and get some bagels...You are a creative person and will get it done. Have a wonderful Sunday!

I hope the stress subsides as you figure out what you need to do. I hope you have a relaxing Sunday, and if it's not relaxing I hope it is productive so you don't have so much weight on your shoulders!
Hang in there!

Haha, oops that was my post about cliff hangers wasn't it?
I don't think this really counts as what I was talking about because #1- you needed some support with the issue and what are blogs and blog friends for? and #2- you do plan to eventually tell us, just not now- which I realize is the point of a cliffhanger, but not what was happening on the other blogs I was referring to haha.
But anyway, I know what you mean- whenever I have something big on my mind usually the only thing that can distract me is kindergarten. I'm always so busy there that I can barely think of anything else. However, once I get home and try to be productive, forget about it. I hope the puzzle pieces start to come together :)

I know it's so cliche' to say, "You can do anything you put your mind to!" But honestly, you can!!! I know you'll be able to prioritize and get everything done. And sometimes if you continue to stay busy, it will get your mind off of whatever it is that is weighing you down. And of couse, the blogging world IS here for you :)

We all need some words of encouragement sometimes. Hang in there girl!

I find in these moments, sleep is the first to go... so I truly hope you're able to get the much needed rest we all need. Try some good books, music and tv and/or movies when you need a distraction.

you are going to be great no matter what you decide--remember, it's not in your hands anyways!

I love your new blog look!

Sorry you are struggling right now. Good luck with everything, and hang in there!

Sorry about the stress right now. I hope all turns out okay, whatever it is. :)

Maybe taking your mind off things will help? I also watch the Bachelor (read in your recent post) and I'm also disappointed in his recent decision. I (sadly) heard some rumors that may have "leaked" who won. Ugh. I watch on Tuesdays late also. So exciting!

I hope you can find peace. We all have situations at times. It is your right to share, but also your right to privacy and blessings. :)

Well the lovely Frau sent us your way so while I am new to your blog, I'm sending lots of warm bloggy love from Texas! I think you are obviously a brave and determined woman to move so far away to share your gift. My mom was a teacher and I know how hard that is when one is home surrounded by family! I'll be back to see how your adventure unfolds.

P.S. My best to your mom. I just lost my cat of 15 1/2 years. :-(
