There Really Is Only One Thing To Do!

1. Study for the Bar

That's it. Nothing else. This will be my one and only goal for this week and the following week. Don't worry! My long lists of things to do will return in a few weeks, but for now this is all I am focused on to accomplish...studying and passing the bar. Isn't life fun over here in j'lynn's world?!?

There Is No Other Option Left

Yes, in one week my life and everything I was holding high fell and shattered on the cement floor! I take complete and full responsibility for that fall and the following shattering. I had a strong run for a few weeks and even had a very strong weekend last week, but this week everything fell apart. I made it to the gym on Monday and then apparently everything went downhill starting Tuesday. This was the same day where I had to have extensive repairs made in my home, which were totally not expected. This is also the same day where for over 4 hours I had a bunch of people in my house and I also knew I had to take my munchkin to karate since my aunt's work schedule was screwed up that day. It was also the same day that I spent dreaming of Red Lobster and was rudely denied due to an electrical problem.

Once I had experienced that one bad day it just kept repeating itself every other day this week or so it seemed. Wednesday was the day of the washer problems. I had hoped this would be fixed by the end of the afternoon, but yet again...a denial. I discovered that I would have to wait another week to get that taken care of too. Not what I had planned at all.

The biggest problems I seemed to be facing this week was I was definitely feeling exhausted and was still dreaming about that Red Lobster dinner that I was denied Tuesday. Yesterday I just couldn't seem to get anything moving over here. I felt dead to the world. I so could have laid down and took a really long nap, but I didn't. Instead I made plans to finally get my Red Lobster dinner with the munchkin and my aunt after his karate class so I could stop dreaming about my Sunset Passion Colada and my coconut shrimp! Of course we were in the midst of a little snow storm (1-2"s). I was exhausted before we made it to dinner, so after my two drinks I was totally ready for the bed.

The munchkin and I were in the bed by 9pm last night...I was stuffed and very sleepy with the perfect amount of frozen alcohol mixed in. This all led me to get up very early this morning (hello 5:15am!) and realize that even though I apparently took this past week off I have to get my life back in order or else in just over 3 weeks I will be in some serious trouble and I won't be able to bail myself out of that mess. This is a requirement for me this week. No more screwing around. It is just me, my list and BarBri...we will be one this week and I will get back on that wagon of having my life together. No if's, and's, or but's about it! No more excuses!!!

This Wasn't Suppose To Go Down Like This

I would like to assure everyone that I am still alive.

I've accomplished nothing in the last 7 days other than finishing my externship, finishing work, starting my leave of absence, and being sick. It all started Monday night after dinner with my friends. On my way home I couldn't stop coughing. I had hoped that it was just my sinuses and my lack of my allergy pill, but I knew. Each mile I drove home, getting closer to home, I knew... And I knew it wasn't going to be pretty either...

This week of all weeks was not the time to get sick. The only other time that it could have been a worse week to get sick is the week I take The Bar. So I guess now is better than then. Even with my horribly nasty head cold I had to push through and show up every single day so I could finish my externship and finish my time at work before my leave started today. So I spent this week going in as needed, working late, coming home, eating chicken noodle soup, taking a shot of nyquil and sleeping. That's it. Nothing more, nothing less...

If you thought I had a lot to do last week, you would probably cry (like I want to) if you saw the pile of stuff and the long list I have that needs to be accomplished this week...especially when I was hoping to just have the necessary things to do, live & study! Opps...

My Friday To-Do List:

1. Start studying for the bar

Another Step Closer...YIKES!!

Wednesday the UPS guy attempted to deliver my Bar/Bri materials, but apparently they are uber valuable and someone must be home to sign for the 25lb box. Opps! So last night I had to trek on out to the UPS shipping center to pick up my box. I would like to thank the employees there for being so helpful and offering to carry out the heavy box to my car, Not! I stood there forever before someone finally helped me and then the guy huffed when he picked up the box. Sorry to make you strain, buddy!

Week #10 This Semester Is In The Bag

Last night when I got home if I wouldn't have just spent $21 on dinner I would have immediately crawled into bed. Yes, it was only 8pm. Yes I have tons to do every night, but I was just feeling totally exhausted. Of course I didn't do it. Instead I ate my yummy Mexican take-out and got a few things done instead. Of course at midnight I was really wishing I would have went to bed 4 hours earlier and come morning...definitely wishing I would have just went to bed!

Obviously I have tons to do this weekend and one of those things is to relax a little. My stress level is really high these days.

Needing To Change Things Up

This past week has been very strange. I sort of feel like I'm on an emotional rollercoaster. One minute I'm depressed, one minute I feel happy. A lot of the time I feel frustrated, irritated and definitely exhausted. I feel like I need to make a big change in my life, but I cannot seem to make the change. I am a total night owl, but it is no longer working for me. I'm not able to get up in the morning like I need to or want to. I really wish I had this whole weekend to myself to make a bit of a switch up, but I don't. I still need to make the switch up, but it is going to be a little more complicated with all of the things I need to accomplish this weekend. I'm hopeful that I can change things up and get it together all at the same time, because something needs to give over here in my world. I'm tired of the way things have been in my life for a while now and if things don't change for the better I fear something bad may happen and I definitely don't want that nor do I need it right now.

I think a major part of my problem is my stress level. It is crazy high and I feel like if I could just get my Bar Application finished and mailed out I will feel a lot better or at a minimum my stress level would be cut in half.

Yesterday after class I was talking to my LSBFF who seems to be in the same spot I am these days, which is sad because I know how crappy "this" feels right now, but it was nice to know I'm not suffering through this alone. Would that be "misery loves company?" But she gave me some great advice...'let's not think about this for the rest of the day...just stop thinking for the day!' I did this and ended up feeling much better the rest of the day. Actually the later it got the better I felt. Thanks LSBFF! By the time I got home after work and making a run to Sam's Club, in the rain, I was in a pretty good mood. Now if I can just get this feeling to last...

Concentrating on #38

For quite some time I have felt off. Then this semester started and it has been downhill ever since. I feel like I cannot get it together.

In the past I've been able to have at least certain areas of my life together while struggling in only one or two other areas; however, I'm not able to say I have even one area together right now. And I haven't for quite some time now.

Being in this position frustrates me and I need to find my way out of it because it is affecting me in so many negative ways and it is starting to snowball on me...
