Taking a step back

My thought of the day.............

At least I can be who I am here on my blog.

 

 

I've had a really rough last few days. I'm not going to lie about it. I found out that a problem that I thought was over and done with is still around, and it's been bugging me. So I took today and just spent it thinking about things. Schools about to start and I really don't want to have the same hard time I had last year when I was up until 2 in the morning doing my homework, so I decided to finally give in and let my dad have his way......I'm quitting my job.

Also, I found out that I'm not going to be cleared to wrestle before Sept 5, so I'm going to miss this season. In a way though, I'm not too bothered by it. I mean, if God wanted me to wrestle this year, I would have passed my physical. I look at it like this....Not being cleared to wrestle was His way of getting me the medical attention I needed for my problem, which the cardiologist says isn't that big of a deal, but to be safe, he thinks I shouldn't play any sports for the time being. I'm also gonna get a note saying I can't do any physical activities this year for PE, so chances are I'll have to be a TA or something.

I guess what I'm getting at is this...if you don't see me posting as much on the forums, don't be too suprised. I have a lot to think about, including my writing schedule. I've already set a goal of one chapter a week per story, which = 2 chapters a week worth of writing. So I'll be extra busy with that and with school. I think I'll have a pretty full plate.

I'm not serving on the writers support sub committee anymore, either, but that doesn't mean I'm not here to help. If anyone needs any kind of help with their writing or with getting noticed, you can always come to me and I'm happy to help. I just don't think it's fair to be on that committee if I can't commit to doing that and writing and school.....one of those things is going to suffer, and that's not an option with school or with my writing.

Anyway, it's like 2 in the morning and I'm ready to go crash, so I'm out.

Hey Nick :)

 

:hug: I'm sorry the last few days have been so rough on you!

 

I'm also very sorry to hear that you won't be on the writer suppor sub-committee anymore :( . I understand your reasons though and it sounds logical to me.

 

That sucks about missing wrestling!! I'm glad you're handling it so well.

 

I'll talk to you later, take care,

Kevin

 

P.S. I think your PM mailbox thingy is full

Hey Nick. Sorry about the sports thing and really really sorry about the rough past few days. Please just don't forget I am a friend and will do anything I can to help. As you have said so many times, give it to the Lord it is his to handle.

 

I also wanted to let you know that I hope you get the heart issue resolved. My mother has something similar but it has never really given her any problems.

 

Hugs and Kisses

Hiya Nicko,

 

I'm sad that you're leaving the Writer Support Committee. Life does get hard, and time is valuable, especially if you're juggling multiple projects.

 

The only comment I would offer is: don't let your writing suffer trying to meet a self imposed deadline. Two chapters a week is a awful lot!

 

Take care
