Busy Busy Bee

Hello!!! And welcome back! OMG guys let me just say I am EXHAUSTED. This life gets busier and busier by the day, hell its gets busier by the hour. I'm always telling myself to slow down and take it one day at a time. YEAH RIGHT!! I can't even sit down on my off days. I'm starting to wonder if I suffer from CSMBD Syndrom (Can't Sit My Butt Down). Well let me dive right in; this past week I was in VIVA Las Vegas---not for vacation though so hold your horses.  I actually attended a Conference for work. I am oober tired from this trip; since Sunday I have attended trainings and workshops during the day then turned into a party animal at night. I don't know where I got the energy from to even wake up on Friday once I was finally home. All in all it was a fun trip but I have come to realize that Vegas is not for me. I enjoy being in bed by 10:00pm every night, I hate the sound of things cha-chinging unless its going into my pocket and I don't deal well with people who don't have a clue of what southern hospitality is (needless to say I think I will be staying South for as long as I can).

Enough about Vegas (because you know what they say---What Happens in Vegas....oh you know the rest). Hehe!! In other news, I am in full swing of second quarter for school and I HATE IT!! Well I don't hate it but I certainly am not pleased with the amount of course work. Don't get me wrong, I truly love getting the opportunity to expand my mind and learn about things I love but it's hard when you have other things going on especially a full time job (full of major responsibilities). Over the course of time my anxiety has grown big time, I becoming more and more restless, and I'm having trouble thinking that I am not accomplishing enough (whats wrong with me ??). I think it may be smart to invest more time in other areas to promote relaxation such as yoga or painting... what do you guys think?

I can tell you one area I'm not so busy in.... DATING!! But honestly I am okay with this. This is the first time in a long time that I have truly focused on myself and it never felt better. I am starting to learn what it is I enjoy...which lately seems like sleep! To Be Honest, dating is not fun! Or maybe I have just had bad experiences. So this will be an area I fall back from. God will present the right one when the time is right. No need to go into further detail just know I am very happy with this decision. :)

Oh yeah, I ran my first 5k race last Saturday with a couple of work buddies!! This was an awesome experience and for a great cause (Sarcoma Stomp). This was very liberating, and if you know me, you know I love anything that involves working out. I will definitely run another race--we had so much fun and I want to improve each time I do it. I probably finished at 44th runner up.. haha!! I'll get better.

Well folks that is all I have for now, but I'm sure that in time, there will be more!! Until next time! Have a very successful and positive week.

XoXo,
Shayla
