OK, so I've been asked to do the following... you may see a pattern emerge.
1) Serve on the Women's Leadership Committee to do publicity and plan a retreat.
2) Create, organize and lead an international students ministry at our church.
3) Help team-lead a Bible study at a local nursing home.
4) Serve on the newcomers committee at church.
5) Lead Covenant Couples Group that has monthly events.
These of course are in addition to babysitting ~20hrs/wk, Gran-sitting 6hrs/wk, 15 credit hours of school, small group, a prayer group, leading another small group and two women's Bible studies. Oh yeah, and continue to cultivate and maintain meaningful relationship with friends in multiple states while maintaining a healthy marriage and getting good grades. Yeah right.
So one could say I'm over it. Ready to just say no to everyone and everything and retreat with a cup of tea and one of the many books 'in que.' (Because the recommended reading list for psychology classes is more work than the classes themselves.) But the other part of me could say yes I would love to help out any way I can. I don't need sleep - overrated. But Shaun said that he thinks I have been doing too much for the past 3 yrs and need to settle down. So if you have any thoughts on what exactly I should be doing . . . let's just say, I'll take it under advisement when I get back from having my retreat.
