study break

i'm so tired. i haven't been this tired in a long time. it's a mixture of getting older, being tired of being in school (this is my 21st year of school and i'm 28 years old), and pure exhaustion. i'm sitting here, trying to study for this midterm thinking about how sick and tired i am of doing this. honestly, if graduation wasn't so close, i'd pack it up. i'm not a quitter but i just can't see the light at the end of the tunnel right now. classes are going well, but i'm seeing a big difference between the school of social work and seminary. for some reason, the thought process involved with seminary is much more taxing than that of social work. not to discredit social work by any means, i love social work and my job, but my mind is constantly running instead of being able to put it on autopilot. i love the word of God and i understand my calling, but God, I'm so tired. please bring relief! other than that, school is going well. i like my classes for the most part and i'm able to keep up, surprisingly at times.

JD and i are doing really well. we're trying to figure out holiday plans and how we are going to manage the holidays between arkansas and texas. i'm ready to go home for a few days. thanksgiving will be great for me. we are going home the end of this month for a friends wedding and even though it's a quick trip, it'll be great to get out of waco for a few days.

well, i guess i need to get back to studying.
