Tick tock...

Sometimes I feel like there is certainly not enough time in a day for me.  I get up at 6:50am, Maddie is up five minutes later.  I change into my running clothes, get her breakfast and set her up to entertain herself while I'm running.  (I let Ryan sleep in during the week and he does the same for me on the weekends!)
Then I go out for my 3-5 mile run.  I come back with just about 45 minutes to get showered and dressed for work.

I get to work, and work a 9-5 day on Mondays Tuesdays and Fridays.  On Wednesdays and Thursdays I work about 9am-7pm. 

I get home for dinner, every other night we bathe the Maditude and then get her to bed.  By 8:30pm, I am beat!

On the weekends, I feel like thats really the only time I have to spend with Ryan and Maddie. 

What a hard life right? No, I'm not saying its hard, I am just saying that I do love my life, however, I wish I had more time for social and fun and friends.  I have a good friend that I work with This is her Blog and she's fun to hang out with - she asks me to shop and do fun things with her a lot but I always have to pass!  It stinks!  I usually really want to go with her and shop or do fun stuff (except for Friday, we were going to go to Providence place, but I was beat and my foot was killing me - not sure why!  So I skipped that but on my own accord), but if I do, I feel really guilty for going because it usually takes away from the little time in the week that I have with Ry and Maddie!  Uggh! 

Luckily for me, Erin understands my issues with guilt and being a wife/mom/friend/sister/coworker, etc. and she's been awesome!  SO, thanks Erin!

And... this week, I'm on duty Monday and Tuesday nights, so when I get called, I really am not home.

It does remind me how blessed I am to have such a great husband.  He makes dinner just about every night, has my coffee in a travel mug by the door each morning (and many times my breakfast in a to-go container if I want it) and takes over completely when I'm working or on call or whatever... he's pretty incredible and I don't know how I got so blessed!!

So, if I haven't been all that attentive lately, which, I stink at calling family and friends, and my poor sister is having a terrible time lately, and I haven't been there for her as much as I should... but please know it's not because I don't think of you or want to be, I just can't seem to fit it all in!
