Our Crazy Busy Life

So life has been a bit nuts the past few weeks. Karl and I haven't been able to see much of each other which has been awful.

I have been working as a swim instructor and assistant manager at a Cinemark close to our house. This means roughly 15 hour days, and a schedule that consists of work, a nap, work, going to sleep, and then starting all over, food being optional or the theater diet (meaning popcorn and Icee's). The only time I have been able to see Karl has been my days off and maybe 15 minutes between my jobs if he got home early.

Except Karl's job has been a bit nuts lately as well. The family he cares for went on vacation so he got to sleep over there for a week. No Karl sightings. Then one of the family members ended up in the hospital for surgery so Karl has been pulling really long shifts with no days off, also contributing to Karl not being around.

But as the saying goes, "Absence make the heart grow fonder". I love it when Karl and I actually get to hang out. This weekend I got to watch him play in his championship flag football game before he had to go into work. His team won of course. :) Karl played awesome. But one, maybe two days a week of seeing each just isn't enough so I quit my swim lessons and hopefully will be able to do some day shifts so Karl and I can see each other in the evenings.

So that has been us lately. Just working and trying to see each other as much as possible. But now I need to go clean our disaster zone of a house, which is what happens when there is no time to do anything but sleep.
