My crazy life
I have not posted in MONTHS. I continue to not be a good poster... sigh.
Here's a very short version of my crazy life:
1. I work ridiculously long hours - Chairing my university dept with 2 of the other top performers out on sabbatical has made my life INSANE. When I come home I have to try and continue to work, and I'm always behind, not so good a feeling. My grad students are finishing thesis which I'm diligently trying to read and respond to on top of everything else, and yeah.....
2. It seems Teague has an iliopsoas injury - I'm finally able to try and get it confirmed Thursday by driving 5 hours to see a great vet. yeah, sucks. Ask Teague how he feels and he just howls. No agility for him since we saw Ms. Moody up in Albany, running - most any running - ends him up gimpy. Dagnabit.
3. I worry I have something wrong with me because I'm exhausted all the time, but I think it's probably my overwhelmed life.
4. Oh, to add something over the top - we put an offer on a house and it was accepted! It came about super quickly and moved fast. That is wonderful because it's on 1.14 acres of flat agricultural land and will be a great agility space. The house will need work as it's got some quirks, but for the land and location - and a price that isn't over the top, it's worth it. That puts us in the middle of inspection period right now. Oh, and to do this means we'll need to put OUR house on the market almost immediately so we can afford to do this. Whew.
5. OH, AND we're going to Spain from May 19th-June 2nd - yeah, timing on all of this is SPECTACULAR! The trip has been planned for a long time and the tickets bought, AirBnB's paid for, etc.
I'm a bit freaked out right now. But, and, I thought I would share. :)
So, relaxation tips, how to get more energy, what to do with a red dog that needs an outlet, all of that is welcome... oh, and anything else you'd like to say :) Caio
