And Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm sure it's obvious - I'm stressed. I wish I were as jolly as a jar of Lebedik Lollies. But my nails are nubbins. That hasn't happened for years.
Last week included 3 family portrait sessions, a headshot session with an opera singer from Boston, and shooting an Upsherin ceremony - today I completed one major exam for school, tomorrow we travel to Ohio for an epic family Thanksgiving, next week brother and sister come to camp out in our living room while I work on a Descartes term paper, all while continuing normal work hours and a regular school load don't even get me started about all those handmade Christmas presents I was going to make. I know better than to complain - almost everything in my life is there because of my choosing but have I mentioned before I'm a complainer by nature? So complain I do. And Zeb just makes me tacos and cleans the bathroom and I'll shut up now and eat tacos and maybe be back next week to complain some more.

I do feel your pain, Sarah. I'm sorry. At least it is All Good Stuff. See, I'm little better than thou as I'm typing this to you at ridiculous hours - when I ought to be resting in order to face my own music, demons, and responsibilities for tomorrow. Some of us do not learn well, ever.
Greetings to the entire clan, plz.!

Hey - I was wondering how you were doing...

Happy Thanksgiving to you and Zeb! Hope you enjoy your time in Ohio and you allow yourself to relax and enjoy it. It will be short.

Good luck. It' easy for me to say this, having finished, but remember to enjoy the pleasure of being at St. John's, even though it means doing a lot in a short period of time. It's special and you're doing it for your own gain. Maybe that will help alleviate some stress? (Also, remembering that grades are arbitrary and subjective may take off the pressure of perfectionism, since there is no way to intentionally attain it.) Miss you. Happy December!
