going back to bed...

second day in a row when i woke up, and thought about getting back into bed after i worked out. the thought actually startled me. really, it scared me. i don't want to be "that person." on my drive to my class each morning, in my mind, i went through the fantasy of staying in bed all day...what that might look like and feel like. aaah...to think about lounging in my pjs all day long, napping, reading & writing...that part looked great. but when i got to the nightmare part of it -- not being there (meals, carpools, homework help, advising, hanging) for the girls and shirking the responsibilities of being a mom, i didn't want any part of it. it's no surprise how emotional these past couple of weeks have been, and as we head into planning the unveiling, i don't see much of an emotional vacation for me, rather us...until afterwards.

i will see what tomorrow morning brings when my alarm goes off at 4:45a.

my friend & Pi Phi sister Karen often sends me via email or txt her view of the morning (from NJ). the photo comes along with a thought, or an inspiration, or even a rant about what is happening in her world. i love receiving them from her. 

taking stock: Pi Beta Phi sisters near and far are still such a huge part of my life. celebrated Paula's birthday (okay, and mine too) tonight. and sara and i txt chatted with Connie while waiting at the DMV for morgan to pass her permit test (yes she did!).
