Sorry for the hiatus!!

As you can see, I did a poor job having a proper work-life balance over the last few weeks.  I apologize.  However, in my line of work in the Student Affairs world April is typically a very busy month.  They say that the "A" months are usually the busiest, and I think that I would mostly agree with that.  April/August do seem to be quite busy. August for sure!  I sometimes wish we could just skip August altogether.  But I guess it doesn't work that way.

I've been busy with work stuff preparing for the end of the year closing and gearing up to run Summer School. It should be an interesting transition and I'm giving myself some anixety about it before it's even here.  I still have about 2 1/2 weeks before the REALLY CRAZY time starts but when I start to think about it and my heart starts to race--I can just feel my Blood Pressure Rising! But I'm trying to stay on top of things and be organized and getting my RAs on the same page will help.  Then it'll be smooth sailing and after May 14 one craziness ends while the other picks up May 15.  Needless to say--May 1-May 22 will be busy for this girl!!! 
On top of that, May 14th weekend is graduation weekend and Tim is graduating with his MBA!  We are so proud of him and all his hard work that he's put into school.  This is also the weekend that our parents are going to be meeting for the first time!! EEEK :)  It'll be fine I have no fear, but that's just a tiny bit of added stress to my plate for the week.  Yay!  But I'm glad that they are finally getting the chance to meet and I think it'll go well.

This weekend is Easter Break weekend and I'm definitely looking forward to some down time.  It's been go go go go for so long that we finally get to sit back and take a breather. Tim and I are traveling to my parents house for the weekend to spend Easter with my family.  I'm very much looking forward to it!
I also realize that I'm a bit behind in the picture challenge.  I'll make up for it, I promise!!  And I hope to be able to get a better hang of the work-life balance enough so I can make the time to update my blog. Afterall, that is the point of it :)  I hope everyone has a very happy and blessed Easter weekend!!  Christ has Risen!! :)

Matthew 28: 1-10
¹ After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.  ² There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. ³ His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. ⁴ The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men.  ⁵ The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. ⁶ He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. ⁷ Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.’ Now I have told you.”  ⁸ So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples. ⁹ Suddenly Jesus met them. “Greetings,” he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him. ¹⁰ Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee; there they will see me.”
