Hectic Week

It's been a hectic week. It's weird that it's been so busy. I think it's partly because it just seems like a shorter week because it is a shorter "work" week. Monday was Labor Day so I had a "relaxed" long weekend with my husband at home mostly and this Friday, he's taking the day off so we can drive up to Lake Tahoe together. That leaves the week to three days only. In these three days, I already had two dance classes and will have my third one tomorrow and I have been skimping on my blog posts! I didn't mean to. It didn't start out this way. Yesterday, I had to wake up before 6 and leave the house by 6 because my husband wanted to get to the dmv office before it opened in Santa Monica (20 miles away from our house in the Valley). So I wrote my post right after my Business class at 11am even though I had planned to write before my class and couldn't because I was too busy reading for my class. Then, today, I overslept! I woke up once at 6am and decided to go back to sleep for another 30 minutes but ended up waking up at 7:09! So I ran to get ready and leave on time! And now, at 9:54pm, here I am writing my blog post for the day!

I feel like other than my blog, I was not able to do a lot of other things I had planned to do this week! And already, tomorrow, is the last day of our week! Because come Friday morning, we are going to be on our way at 5am! Here's my analysis of what went wrong: my plan! I totally over-planned! I feel like I did not at all take into consideration that when you are taking a 3-day trip out of town, no matter how much you may feel prepared already, there's still some last-minute preparations to take care of! Like going to the salon and getting a haircut and color done! In addition, it was a short week! Usually, Mondays are the days I am most unprepared for the week and usually by noon, I get into work-week mode and feel more and more energized by the next day, Wednesday, and even Thursday. Friday, I am so excited it's the last day of the week and if I am able to stay productive enough for the day, then I really start to look forward to the weekend by Friday afternoon! And now, this week, was completely cut in half! I didn't get a chance to "get my head in the game" and "in the zone" like I usually do by Monday noon and didn't have enough time to feel more and more energized! In the end, I feel like I have had an unproductive week and hey only two days have passed!

In conclusion, I am going to cut down on my "goals" for this week, and by "this week" I really just mean tomorrow, the only remaining day of the week for me. I will ONLY do what is necessary and time-sensitive like, two of my clients' works due to deadlines and other preparations for the trip! On the bright side, for me, tomorrow is the last day of the week! Then, hello...road trip!
