April 30, 2011-Back to the Busy Life...
It's Saturday once again, and there are many activities planned and yet not quite enough time to do them all. You would probably never guess that life on a tiny, tropical island without malls, movie theaters, museums, water and theme parks, or even cars and long distances to travel could become so scheduled with events that you have to pick and choose what activities you are able to take part in, but it does. It's the American way, I guess. Because everything is so close, we end up over scheduling even more because we can make it to two or three events in one evening since it doesn't take a half hour to get to each spot. Crazy, huh? But you really do have to be careful not to burn yourself out, taking time for yourself and your family to rest up, and enjoy what island life can be instead of making it too much like the rat race of life back in the states. Tonight, we had soccer games, double feature movie events, and friend's religious events to attend, and we did not make them all, but we did end up exhausted by the time we finally arrived home for the evening after 11 pm. I think I'll take tomorrow to relax...oh, wait, not going to happen because the Ballroom Dinner Dance takes place that evening. Oh well, back to the busy life, at least for a few more weeks. Can't wait for the lazy days of summer to start! :)
