When it comes to "To Do" Lists, I am THE QUEEN. I have TO DO lists for EVERYTHING. Sometimes I get a little psycho on them and almost die from heart failure.
For instance: This weekend, looking at my TO DO list is enough to give you an ANEURISM. I kid you not. It's intense. Between scholarships, meeting with College Counselors, homework, sports, cleaning (because it's a "slow week" dontcha know), organizing, monitoring my health, managing money affairs, working and trying to catch up on homework (My volleyball team went to Home School Nationals last week!!! 1st in Bronze 2!!!!)....welll...well.
My biggest problem is: while I'm THE QUEEN of making TO DO lists...completing them is an entirely different matter. Anyone can MAKE TO DO lists. In fact, I probably spend much of my time doing nothing but that.
Well, I guess God puts these thins upon us in order to urge us to lean on Him...because believe you me...NO WAY am I going to be able to do this on my own!
As important as it is for me to get what needs to get done done...my sanity is also pretty key. Sometimes you have to take mandatory breaks. Tonight, I'm going to go to the Y of my own accord to play some basketball, Saturday I'm really hoping for a girls' night! (Yes, every night is pretty much "girls' night" when you have as many sisters as I have, but this one will consist of me and my friends!)
Sometimes I sit here thinking "Dear God....can Senior Year be over already?!?!?!" (Don't worry, only 6 months and 5 days til Graduation!!!!...not that I'm counting or anything.....) And other times I think, "Dear God....don't let it end!!!"
Thankfully, I'm jacked up on a mega cup of coffee right now (hazelnut and cinnamon!!! YUMM!!!) and went to church this morning, so I'm on all sorts of Spiritual, Physical and Emotional highs right now! Regardless, even if I do spontaneously combust from pure stress and lack of ability to continue living...
To quote Billy Currington:
"God is great. *Beer is good. And people are crazy."
Well, as this post makes apparent, I've chosen to not TO DO for the moment. Now to return to the real world and TO DOing...
Peace!
*No worries, I ain't never drunk beer in ma life, nor will I ever (Celiac Disease o.O)....though I've heard great things...
