Light at the end of the tunnel!

So about that whole posting once a month thing… Oops. : )

But honestly, there hasn’t been all that much more to post about.

For the last 3 ½ months I have been just pushing through. I haven’t really been enjoying my life, as much as I’ve just been trying to survive it.  I think it has been wearing me down more than I’m admitting to people. Between CSC still being extremely stressful, working at the YMCA, and trying to hold my Relief Society together – I have just about lost my mind.

P.S. Depression sucks. (But I’m working on that too.)

HOWEVER – there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Everything that is adding stress to my life is going to be better in June. The last huge tax deadline that we have at work is June 1st, so after that I’ll be able to breathe again. My internship at the YMCA is over on May 26th. Oh, and I’m moving out of my parents’ house on May 28th. I have signed a lease with two girls from my branch and we move in in two weeks. I am SO excited about this. Not because I want to leave my family (I’ll only be about half an hour away) but because I will actually be able to have an active social life again. And let’s face it, it’s pretty hard to find a husband when you never leave your house. (I won’t go into how utterly sick I am of being single.)

So, while this post may not be a great play-by-play of my last couple of months, and it’s kind of depressing as it is, I know that the future looks better and I can just move on and leave all this stress behind me.

Though, I’d be remiss if I omitted the fact that I am now an Aunt. Kathryn gave birth to Joshua Adam Christensen on March 10th. (Yes, he was 5 weeks early.) So once work calms down I’ll actually be able to get to Utah to see the little guy. I’ll be out probably in the last part of June.

Love you all!
