Shut-Down

My brain is on overload.  It just took me three times to correctly type brain.
I can focus on anything that I don't need to focus on.  Ask me anything that is not about Shakespeare, Grammar, Charles Dickens, or Robert Lowell (who is wonderful, by the way), and I can answer.  Ask me how I'm doing on studying and my final projects, and I don't want to talk to you.  Go away, please, and come back when you are ready for me to ignore all things school.
I am currently working on something called "Invention Heuristics" which is not fun.  I am a little overwhelmed.

I need to take a deep breath, go to Starbucks, and work like a madwoman to conquer my mental list.
Mentally, this is me:

Dear Brain:
Let's just get through today together.  Please don't blow up on me.
Sincerely, me.

PS- check out my tab "bon blog design" - I'm just starting out.  Feedback, please.

  2. Love your blog design page- Chelsie's blog looks so good!

    When my brain is on over-load, I have a girls weekend to relax. I'm leaving for Houston today for just that - I need a break! Have a great day!

    Great job on Chelsie's blog redesign! It looks fabulous! I'm thinking about a redesign soon too but I have to wait until me and the DH's his and hers photo shoot to have some new pics! Maybe we should talk!

  11. Oh no! You'll get through. Just ask God for extra grace & brain cells : )
    My college had that picture as a poster over the printer/copier that said 'Think before you print.' Too funny.

  15. I'm working on the redesign of a room in my appartment...it's all I can think about and an overwhelming task which is going nowhere.

    One step at a time. With big deep breaths in between...and lots of prayers. He won't give you anything you can't handle.

    Thank you for sharing your human! ~ Michelle

  24. Glad to hear you're starting blog design. When I am a little more financially sound, there is a VERY good chance I'll be coming to you for a design.

    Also, good luck on your finals... I know how much studying can be a pain.
