Physically aching because that's just what my body does under stress
Learning new people, new structure, totally new job (Financial Aid for a liberal arts major?)
New expectations/necessity of working super long days (also see point above)
Not having time to cook
Going to school full time (class on weekends, reading/writing papers on weeknights) with some doubt about whether it's worth it...
Honestly, I am just completely TIRED of these parts of my life. Lately I have felt so mind-numbingly weary. There are days when I think I just can NOT learn one more new thing, concept, process, or even vocabulary word. In fact, I'm pretty sure my word-a-day calendar at work is still on June 1st.
But.. (and isn't the "but" always the best part in any story?)
Coming home to relax with the best husband in the world - who can make me laugh and feel loved and capable despite all of the above
Getting to talk about our life and our dreams and everything and nothing
Being a listening ear for a very dear friend going through a hard time
AND going out for Mexican food with friends
I'm happy with my life.
