Life has been so crazy the last few weeks. I'm trying to keep up with all my classes which I'm barely succeeding at, I work 15-20 hours a week at the library, and I'm dealing with a bunch of family issues on top of it. I just need a vacation. My stress level is through the roof! I really don't have 2 seconds to just take a breath. My daughter is so active. All she wants to do is play which is great but I need a break at some point.

We're moving in 2 months down to Carbondale. I'm starting school there in January. Hopefully I'll have some time to relax. I'll have a month before classes start and I don't plan on getting a job for that entire month. Just hang out at home and spend time with my family, which I don't even have time to do now.

I'm really excited about the move. I've never lived more then 20 minutes away from here so it'll be interesting to see what its like to be a little farther away. I know its only like an hour and a half but I'm use to always being right by my mom. That's going to be the hardest part, moving away from my mom. She's my best friend and its going to kill me being more then 20 minutes away from her. But I guess its time to start my own life and focus on whats best for me and my family.

Hopefully things start to slow down over the next few weeks. I just wanna take a weekend off and drive to Chicago for a few days. Just go up there and forget all about life down here and all the stress I'm under. Maybe I'll do that for my birthday...
