What a rough week this past week was, for me at least. Steve had some little annoyances throughout the week as well.
First, let's talk about happy things first. Valentines Day was obviously on Tuesday, and Steve and I volunteered to be on a "Married people panel" for NMT's Intervarsity. It was quite interesting. There were four couples, and people from the audience asked questions about marriage and all the fun stuff that go with it. It was a little weird being on this panel because about three years ago I was in the audience asking the questions, and now here Steve and I were being asked the questions. Despite the akwardness, Steve and I had a wonderful time, and Steve enjoyed seeing old friends. The ones that are still there at least.
Aside from the wonderful Valentines evening, the week was rough on both Steve and me. Steve injured his knee almost two weeks ago while we were playing racquetball, and he has yet to recover. Basically he hyperextended his knee, and it bugs him. He has this cute little limp, but this injury is causing some slight annoyances. First he has to take the elevator at work as opposed to taking the stairs. Then there's the task of getting to school. Our trailer in Albuquerque is near UNM, and so Steve usually rides his bike to school. Well, since his knee hurts, he has to find an alternative way to get to school. You would think that it would be easy living only 5 minutes away, but it has been tough. Poor Steve. Man, I am sure grateful for the free parking we have at Tech.
My week was very tiring. Taking 18 hours is a lot harder than I want it to be, but I'm not going to give it up. This week though, I suffered in the form of no sleep. I had a take-home test due Wednesday, a test on Thursday, and a project also due on Thursday. Not to mention the daily reading for my Westerns class (which average about 50 pages). So, between Tuesday and Wednesday night I got about 7 hours of sleep, and spent most of my waking hours in front of my computer and studying. Finally, on Thursday night I was able to sleep. I slept so hard that I didn't hear my phone, which was right by my pillow, ring four differnt times. I have pretty much caught up on sleep and I'm ready to take on next week, which comprises of two tests and a paper. Bring it on!!!
Praise God the weekend is here! I'm looking forward to spening lots of time with Steve. Of course I will be doing some homework, but not until Steve takes me to go see Curious George. I love Curious George, and he is going to take me to see it tomorrow. I'm so excited. He is such a great husband!
