It has been quite awhile since I’ve gone a whole week without a blog post! But here we are and this was the week that all of that planning went out the window I guess! Thankfully, running your own business means you are the one that dishes out grace when mistakes like this happen. So I’m living in that and hoping you all can forgive me for being offline for the week. I promise it won’t happen again for at least another three months :]

SO why’d I disappear? Radford Cru’s spring retreat just wrapped up, so I have officially come out of my coma stage, aka resting from staying up until 3am every night and long days all week long. This rest has looked a lot like binge watching the 3rd season of Glee, you know, back when it was still a semi rational show. I guess I’m getting nostalgic since the show is finally on its way out. It has also looked like sleeping until 1PM today, hence the late blog post.

Other than exhaustion, this week was JUST what I needed to head into the rest of the school year. It was energizing spiritual and emotionally. Something about being offline, surrounded by like minded people, cut off from the world, gives you welcome perspective. It reminds you what is important. But I’ll definitely share a little more of that later, okay?!

For now, I’m going to sign off, catch up on a full inbox, and do a week’s worth of dishes.

Feels:

• I cannot remember the last time I laughed so hard. This week was good for many reasons and laughing till my stomach hurt was one of them. Between my best friend being in town and my favorite crazy college students, there wasn’t a dry eye. Because yes, I was laughing so hard I was crying.
• Being on an empty college campus in the middle of the night is enchanting. It’s kind of impossible for the lampposts not to remind you of Narnia in those moments which makes it all the more magical.
• Nothing makes me laugh like watching my husband laugh. For some reason, he couldn’t sleep at 2am a couple nights ago…so he turns on Friends which made him laugh his head off for like ten minutes straight…which kept me awake. And then he promptly fell asleep.
• Tomorrow is my birthday! Can someone let me know what you’re supposed to do to celebrate being 25? Because that is feeling a little too mature for my liking.

I spent my week with these crazies! Can’t wait to tell you more about it all!
