just Peachy thoughts

Lately I’ve been feeling a little hit over the head with life. As if life has just swung a good old-fashioned baseball bat, and left me with a cartoon welt on the forehead and the word “whammy!” written in yellow stretching out from it. It’s kind of like my life has been living me instead of the other way around. Things have been a little hectic, I suppose. <– Understatement of the decade, btw. Consider this list of events:

- my mom got married last friday.

- my whole family spent approximately one week here, without my mom here to keep them entertained.

- my apartment is in a shambles as we try to get packed for the move into our house on friday (we still aren’t finished packing).

- my brother and his family are getting ready to move to Charlotte, NC.

- I am helping multiple friends with their wedding plans.

And oh yeah, I still have a job and a marriage to maintain. I keep trying to dig the life lesson out of this heap of to-do lists, numbers, and packing tape, but I’m feeling a little tangled at the moment.

Chris managed to bribe me into taking the night off from packing last night with the promise that we would make up for it with extra hard work tonight. The truth is I really, really needed it. I was beginning to forget that there are faces behind all these lists and errands and bubblewrap. Hopefully, my work tonight will be more inspired due to this realization. I am also secretly hoping that I might fall asleep tonight and wake up 2 months from now, when our house is all unpacked and everything is already done. Hey- a girl has to have dreams.
