Friday, Finally

One day to go, and then the weekend begins. This has been the longest week. I am so over cooking and cleaning this week. Must remember to get my crock pot going in the morning to save me some bother in the afternoon. I need to find something to cut out of my life. Between work, home school, and the constant cooking and cleaning that's needed, I'm just burned out. I'm trying to think of some make-ahead meals I can do on the weekend.

I'm looking forward to planning out my next quilt this weekend. I'm searching for simple patterns. I've only made one quilt so far, but like anything, practice is the best way to improve. I was planning on working on a quilt for me, but I think I'd rather work on one for Q.

Ah, look at that, it's almost 9:00. Time to get myself and Chico ready for bed. I don't know why I'm so tired lately. I go to sleep around 10:00 or 11:00, and I have to drag myself out of bed when the alarm goes off at 6:00. I'm planning to try and set my wake up time back to 5:00 next week, so I'm going to have to figure out an earlier bed time. What's worked for me so far is just to force myself to get up at 4:30 or 5:00 on the first day regardless of what time I've gone to bed. It makes for a very tiring first day, but for me it seems like it's more effective to get it over with all at once. I've never been able to follow the common advice to move back by 10-15 minutes until I'm on a new schedule.

And that's today's news from La Casa Azul.
