I'm sorry for being MIA the last two weeks. I have all these ideas planned out for blog posts, but it's just been a difficult couple weeks. I'lve already been home from college for 3 WEEKS!! And it's already going so fast! I'm not one for complaining. And I don't want you to think that that'ls what I am all about, but this weeks #FFF goes to the challenges my summer is pressenting thus far:
1 - Managing my time. I started my nannying job this week, and I love the kids! However, as the poor college kid that I am, I have to work a second job at Burger King to keep my head above water. So to speak. Balancing out the two jobs is already turning into quite a challenge. And then on top of work, I have to spend time with my family and Zach. So far it's just a giant train wreck.
2 - My phone kicked the can. I don't ever realize it, until I no longer have it. So the keyboard finally (it's been 4 years) shorted out. I went through the stresses of getting ti switched over to a different phone and all that icky stuff.
3 - SUNBURNS! I always think I can't get one, and then the first time I am in the sun I get burned. I was batteling not one, but two different burns and it hurt!! Along with hauling 4 kids around, I am so sore!!
4 - My car. My 2004 Saturn Vue got a new transmittion at Christmas time, and now the transfer case has gone to crap. Who needs money anymore? I really hate owning a vehicle, and a crappy one at that. I'd rather go back to high school when I drove my dad's car and I didn't have to worry about the maintenence at all.
5 - Lack of sleep. I miss college where I was able to slepp for however long i wanted in Saturdays. At home, I work at 5:00 in the morning. I was okay for the first week, but now the lack of sleep is really catching up to me and boy do i feel it. I sound like my mother. I must be getting old.
What challenges have you been presented with this summer? How do you find a way to balance out all of the different things you want to get done?
