Lovely Weather!!

Another day of wonderful sunshine and 65 degrees!! School was ok, not much happened. I got home, got my run in and started doing requirements. I'm finishing up now and then going to relax with my mom for the rest of the night. I hope everyone is doing well! I know the cycle can be really overwhelming right about now, because there is a lot going on and everything will start piling up soon (if it hasn't already). Just know, you're not alone this. One of the reasons we have these journals is so that we can struggle together and be a community. Its not just everyone for themselves. Your masters and instructors have gone through this and we all know how hard this is. So if you need some encouragement or some help, never be afraid to ask. Even if this isn't your first cycle, its ok to struggle too ;) ~ Peyton
