Currently: Life Update!


Time for another life update! Hockey season has officially ended for both Nick and I, so I have been a little bit absent in the blog world over the last week or so. I'm back now though, so here is everything that is going on with me lately:

Feeling: disappointed that I won't be home in time to spend Easter with family. Sad that the season is over, and we have started saying good-byes to our friends here. Excited to see friends and family when I am back home. Happy that the days are getting longer and we are seeing more sunlight. Thrilled that I am doing well in my classes. Determined to get back in the swing of things blogging.

Anticipating: a busy month of April! Nick and I will fly back to Minnesota next Thursday, and then leave for two weeks in the Dominican Republic next Sunday. Before that, we have to pack up and clean our apartment here in Västerås, and I have to finish my final paper for my MBA class.

Toying: with the idea of taking a quick last-minute trip while over here in Sweden. Since we have another week, I've been looking at flights like crazy, hoping that a couple of cheap ones will pop up. Unfortunately, with Easter weekend I'm not holding my breath waiting for that to happen!

Watching: The Good Wife. Nick and I have gotten hooked on the show lately, and have watched two full seasons in the last week or two. Season three, we are coming for ya!

Running: as much as I can! I've been trying to get back into running now that the weather has warmed up, but my knee isn't that happy about it. Last summer I was running between 3 and 5 miles daily, and right now I can only go for about 2-2.5 miles before I have to pause for my knee. Hopefully soon I'll be back at full strength!

Writing: blog posts and papers! I want to get several posts scheduled for before our vacation, so I am trying to get organized. It takes a lot of motivation to get everything done in advance though!

Reflecting: on how different this hockey season and last hockey season were. There have been good and bad elements to both seasons, and it is amazing how different they were! Stay tuned in the next week or so for a reflection on this entire season.

And really, each of those describes exactly the state of my life right now! What is going on in your life lately?
