here's a novel concept:

take a deep breath and relax.

i've spent the past months tense. unable to let go. dead set on solving all on my own.
it's easy to get wrapped up and forget how when you're working 5 day weeks, studying for class and trying to put together a sound dissertation proposal. when you're paying your way, anything less than an "A" seems down right wasteful; then add fluctuating mortgage rates and a tight budget that needs to consider rising tuition costs in addition to fuel and food to the mix and life is grand! it hit me when i saw picts from Iron Cross. in each my face was tense - and I LOVE RIDING MY BIKE! damn!

family helps mellow sometimes. sit back and enjoy being taken care of and spoiled for a day or two. i had forgotten what it feels like. many smiles and warm greetings. and even though the end of each day was capped with a late night study session given an upcoming exam, there's still peace to be found.

It's Time To Simplify.

deep breath.
