Can't keep up!

Life has been so hectic lately (what's new) and I feel like I can't keep up! 

In the last few weeks, we have had a major snowstorm (which put a huge roadblock in my running plan), Brandon had a work trip to Chicago, I had a work trip to Delaware, Brandon had another work trip to Raleigh...you get the point (and my next work trip is less than 2 weeks away...sigh).  I'm having a tough time finding "the balance" but hope it'll come soon.  I feel like every day is a race to the finish line and I live for the time I get to spend with Maddox on the weekends (because the time we actually get to see him through the week is so limited).  I can definitely understand how maintaining sanity, a household, and two full-time careers can be too much to handle.  Right now, Brandon and I are each working at least 50 hours/week and are like two ships passing in the night (haha...love that cheesy analogy).  Obviously, we feel so blessed to have two wonderful careers but at some point, I just want to run away with my family for a weekend that doesn't involve laptops, meetings, blackberries, email, or any contact with the outside world.

As for the running...well, I haven't been running as planned.  There have been a few sessions here and there but honestly, I am too much of a wimp to run in temps that are below freezing.
