It's been a long, long time....

Yeah,, so the title of this blog is totally stolen from a fabulous FFH song that I have playing in my head this morning. I have blogged quite a bit lately, but I haven't really written, if you know what I mean.

Life is good. I'm happy. I love my husband and I love my sweet puppy dog. The condo is fairly clean. I've pulled out my spring and summer clothes in hopes that this beautiful weather will stay. And now I'm praying for some warm sunny days so I can begin to get my legs to NOT be ghostly white. I'm always pale. But this is ridiculous.

This upcoming week is going to be a big one for me. I'm supposed to turn in my COMPLETED first three chapters of my thesis (aka my proposal) to my committee by Friday. I've got an outline for my methods done, but I have to write it up. My survey is complete. But my lit review is a mess. I've got to rework the entire thing. My goal is to have that done by Monday so my chair can look at it and I can revise before everyone else sees it.

Thing is, I'm leaving town Thursday afternoon. (We are going to see my in-laws at their new house in Georgia!!! We haven't seen them since Christmas and I am so very, very, very excited to have a wonderful weekend relaxing and spending time with them!)

But all that means, I need to finish all revisions by Thursday at noon. YIKES! I'm scared. It's crunch time and I still feel so far from where I need to be. I feel like the next two to three months (and what happens then, timeline wise) is dependent on this single week. Scary, huh?

So, I could totally use some of your fabulous prayers and encouragement.

I also have to return to my GA job this week after a fabulously dull and fairly relaxing spring break this past week. I cleaned. I played with Eve Belle. I watched tv. I cooked. It was nice.

We've got so much coming up after this. Our cruise is in just about a month. I can't wait. I've got some shopping, working out, and packing to do for it! I will blog later today (after I get at least a few pages of revisions done) about all the fun things I've found lately - and the latest giveaway that I won, because my beautiful prize came in yesterday!)

Much love to all of you! Happy Saturday,
XOXO,
Mrs. Jones

PS) Giveaway winners - I PROMISE I will mail your games on Monday. I'll admit, I was too lazy this week. Please forgive me? :-)
