pacing myself

Apparently, I’ve been in a blog slump for the past month. Well not to worry, I’m back on track (for now). Just before school got out, I was picking up a few hours in the evenings and on the weekends at a local gift shop. The plan was to work there full-time for the summer, but I quickly decided that I wasn’t willing to work 11-hour days and weekends. So that lasted a whole 3-4 weeks. Since that ended I’ve had trouble filling my time, but I’ve learned to pace myself and not be too productive in one day. Believe it or not, slowing down is harder than you’d think! I’m not complaining, though, because as soon as school starts again, I’m sure I’ll be wishing for June to come around. For now, I just spend my days working out, watching a little TV, running errands, wandering through the mall or Target, or just whatever else I feel like doing. I’m avoiding a few major things I should be doing, like changing my license plates from MO to NC, setting up my classroom, and cleaning out my closet, but those things just aren’t fun so I’ll put them off a little longer. I have lots more to write about, but that’s it for now. Gotta pace myself!
