BUT, alas I am not doing either of those things. Sundays are very reflective days for me. Not always in a positive way, but I think in a necessary way. Move #39 has been difficult. While the apartment and roommate situation is more than I could have hoped for at this stage in my life, it has also been an emotional adjustment. On top of that add working full time, trying to finish study abroad homework and now do my regular semester homework and I've been feeling stretched a little thin. Sundays are also the days where I miss the mama the most and today I got a sad, small reminder of just how much. However, as I overheard someone say tonight, "how can we be sad for them?" I can't be sad for her. I just can't. But sometimes I feel just a little sad for me. Sometimes it's a pity party and sometimes, it's just a longing for what was and what could have been and what I see people around me still have.
Study abroad homework = 99% done (and it's due tomorrow).
Only 13 weeks left of grad school (when I say it like that it doesn't feel so LONG!).
More blessings than I can count.
And a healing heart (I hope!).
