Why is life a dance?

Wake up at 5am, be at work by 6am, work all day until 5pm, then go home to cook and clean and make time for loved ones. Lately it's been running around trying to plan a wedding that I've been doing in my off time. I'm constantly tired, constantly feeling overwhelmed and stressed out. I don't get finished with my day until 11pm, sometimes later, only to start it all over again the very next day.
Running a restaurant is hard work. I get in at six and the truck needs to be checked in. Then at six thirty the produce order is checked in, then the milk man comes and he is checked in. Then there are calls to be made to the bread man, the wine and alcohol order needs to be placed, as well as the fresh fish. Then i have to do the Prep list. For those of you who don't know, at my restaurant we prep everything fresh in the morning by ourselves. No prepackaged foods here. EVERYTHING is fresh! The managers have to go through what we need and make a list of things that the prep cooks have to do. This generally takes an hour or so. Then the front of the house check is completed. Sidework is checked, and the restaurant is prepared for the guests. I then make myself a cup of coffee and get to sit down and eat. After that the day gets even more hectic and i won't even get into the rest!
With all this stress, the reason I say that life is a dance is because, well, not everybody knows how to dance. It's complicated sometimes, and sometimes you mess up, but it takes practice. And once you do the moves a couple million times, you get used to it. Just like in life. And sometimes in dancing, you lead, and sometimes you follow, just like in life.
Life is a Dance because we were called to get up and live life. Truly live it to it's fullness. "I have come that you may have life, and have it to the fullest." My life is not that busy, and not that hectic, it's just FULL. The Lord will sustain me through whatever it is that I go through. Of that I'm sure. And when i start to get overwhelmed, I know that it's time to reexamine myself, cast my cares on him, and continue on my way, dancing through life.

My Blog

My soon to be sister-in-law (i hate the in law terms by the way) has a blog. I like to go to it and read it to find out more about her, mostly because i probably will never know her that well. So since i liked what i saw, i decided to create my own blog! I thought it would be fun to come and journal and write about what's going on and stuff. Not that there is a lot going on in my life. I'm getting married to the most amazing man in the whole world, and that's pretty much what my life is centered around. I'm becoming a restaurant manager to. It's fun, but what i really want to do is have kids and be a mom. But since i'm not allowed to do that for like three years, I have to be content for now with what I'm doing. Anyways, my parents are coming in to town this week and i have to clean a little bit, my apartment is a little messy, not to bad, but for working eight straight days in a row, it gets a litle messy. Dave's at work tonight (that's my fiance's name) He is a manager to, so with our hectic schedules, we won't get to see each other for the next three days *sniffle,sniffle*.
