Entry 5

So, here I am on a Friday night, at home all by myself. Adam is at work. Joshua is on a band trip and won't be home till Sunday. Hannah is at "Late Night" with the Bedichek theatre group. And Sarah is off riding bikes in the neighborhood with Jon...and suddenly it occurs to me that it won't be very long before the house is empty like this all the time. Hmmmmm......this makes me sad. But, I also know that I shouldn't get ahead of myself. I need to enjoy life for what it is now and not worry about what is to come.

Today was a long day. I had planned on leaving work at 1:30 and coming home to take a nap. But, comments/changes on a big proposal came in and they needed my intrepidatious research and writing skills, so I didn't leave until 4. I didn't get the nap I needed....I'm hoping that means I sleep well tonight.

My trip next week has been complicated a little bit. I'm trying to de-stress this weekend because I know what three days of traveling does to me. The good news is that I should be able to take off at least one day, maybe one and a half next week after I get back from my trip.

So, now I'm waiting for Sarah to get home from riding bikes so we can order Chinese -- I promised her we'd do this since it's just a girls' night. And here she is :o)
