crying baby + no latte + tired mama = rough day.

charlie awoke from his morning nap about 45 minutes earlier than he should have due to the ruckus being caused by the downstairs landlords. he woke up at 9:40am. it is now 11:40am. he's been this whole time.

on the bright side, we are going to have an early lunch and he's going to be put back to bed.

i think i need a me day. a day to get my act together. i feel like i've been going none stop since the beginning of july. i realize that is not that long of a time to be going none stop, since it's barely the end of july. but i am so tired from it all.

i spent the first week of july out in minnesota, i spend the following few days cramming out some camp sessions, then i spent a week out at camp. i'll be home now for another week, then i'm heading out to ontario for my cousins wedding. after that i'll be home for a week, then out to minnesota again for family cabin time. and then summer will pretty much be over.

i miss my carefree summers. i wouldn't change the crabby baby for anything in the world. but i do miss those good ol' days.

I have to speak at camp this year. Okay, I don't actually have to...technically, they asked me and I said yes. So, really, I can't complain.
But I'm going to a little bit anyways...
I don't wanna do it...okay, that's not totally true. I'm half-excited about the challenge. But, I have not been feeling very inspired. I sit in front of my computer, bible in hand, and stare blankly. I don't have much time left...camp starts on Sunday. And today, in case anyone has lost track, is Tuesday...I think.
I've been having such a hard time finding some good quality time to sit and ponder all this. I have escaped to Starbucks this morning in an attempt to "work". Instead, I am blogging.
It's a good thing I am a practiced procrastinator...or else I'd be in trouble...
