Plum Tuckered

You know those days, weeks, or even months when you feel like this....

As soon as you walk in the door, you don't even have enough energy to take your boots off. You just want to lay down and not do anything else!

That would be us right now. We have been going so hard lately that we are just pooped! Fortunately I have spring break to look forward to. Poor Jay doesn't even get that. He gets to look forward to his four day weekends, but those are quickly filling up with trips, classes, and lots of other things.

Nonetheless, even when we feel like we're treading water without a wall to hold on, we're still blessed to have everything we have. We both have jobs that allow us to pay our bills, keep the fridge full, and the car running. We have the opportunity to travel around Europe. And we have amazing friends over here that would do anything for us. We are lucky to have a couch to fall on to when we walk in the door (even if it's provided by the Army).

The four day this coming weekend will be a bit of work and a bit of play for us. We have a CPR instructor's course in Ansbach (about an hour away) that will last all day on Saturday. But after that, we're heading to Ramstein to take the rest of the weekend to relax. No classroom to go work in, no office to go in to, just us, with hopefully no distractions! (Even though I will have to write lesson plans sometime during the weekend.)
