The end is here.

I have really enjoyed writing in this blog, and I do think that I will keep on doing my blog. The end of the term is mostly calming to me because I know I am now one step closer to achieving my goal, but at the same time it is very stressful waiting for the final grades to come out.

Then there were two!

I have found that when it boils down to the last two weeks of class, I find myself wondering how I was able to retain all of the information and still be able to remember what I learned the first week. You could say that it is a little stress full worrying about final exams and final project, but to me it is a relief to have made it another then weeks.

Feeling the Pressure

I am not one who is easily stressed, it takes a lot for me to break. This week I have had to deal with bills, kids going back to school, and more family drama than I would like. I have been neglecting my own needs, and it is starting to take its toll on me. I pulled a muscle in my left shoulder, because I was not paying attention to how I was lifting things, I have not slept like I should, and I keep forgetting to take my medication. I think I need some real personal time, and I am going to start with having the kids go to a friend's house this weekend!

Ready for christmas!

I am finally ready for Christmas, I have all my gifts bought, food ready, and my parents have made it safely here! I feel pretty good about my grade on the first draft, its not a perfect grade, but you cannot always be perfect right. I have not had much sleep and am looking forward to hitting my pillow tonight, getting everything ready takes a lot of energy! Merry Christmas everyone and have a very happy new year!

What next????

So my grandmother who is all the way in Ohio is not talking to anyone in the family, and some guy is pretending to be her son and is taking control of all her stuff. My mom is going to school and is having a difficult time with some other family members. My sister is getting prank calls all night long, and to top it off my check has not came yet so I am unable to get my kids anything for Christmas until it does. What in the world could be next really, haven't I been through enough? I just want a break from all the madness, when is it my turn to get some good news?

Stressed

So sick of getting the run around by people. When you say your going to do something you should be responsible and do it, and if you are unable to do so then you need to be respectful and call the person and let them know. I hate making plans only to have them shot down at the last minute by a no show! I have had so many people cancel on me this week that its not funny, and they all use the lame excuses like, I have to clean, or something like my daughter took my phone and I didn't hear it go off. Why can't people just be honest? Seriously it works out so much better when people are honest and sincere about it.

Another day.

I can remember when I worked as a rehabilitation tech that in AA they always said "take it one day at a time" and that is just what I am doing here. I may not be addicted to anything besides mountain dew, but we can all us this little piece of advice. Trying to make thing happen all in one day does not work out for the best. So i will take a deep breath for now and take another twenty four.
