Excited and Relieved

It's the end and it happened so fast. I am glad it's over because I had such a hard time with this class, but I got over it and I did better this time than the last time. I may not have made an A, but I passed. I have learned alot this time around and I probably could do it again, I mean write another paper. Hopefully, I won't have to because my nerves can't take that again. Well, it has been a better experience this time around and I have learned more this time around. Good Luck to all!

Nervous

Well, we are almost done with this class, and I think I have actually learned more this time than the last time taking this class. Yes, I failed it the first time, I will admit it, I really suck at writing, but at least I gave it a shot. I am feeling nervous, excited, relieved mostly because this class is almost over. I had my fears about this class and math, my worst subjects, but I got through them and I survived. I am feeling somewhat happy, I think I am going to pass both classes, I may not get an A, but I think I will do ok. We will see and this blogging thing isn't too bad, I should keep doing it because its kind of nice we can write down what we are doing or what we are feeling or anything, that is if I can find the time. I am a little nervous about my next two classes, I am not sure what they are yet. But I am sure I will enjoy them. Well I think I am done writing today, I have to get ready for work and get the kids from school in a bit.

Feeling Great Today!

I had a good weekend, mind you I worked Friday and we were slammed. In case anyone doesn't know, I am a cook in a restaurant, and it's the only family restaurant in town and everyone comes there. But, anyway, I was off Saturday night, which I never get Saturdays off and I went to a wedding. My friend at work, her name is Alta and she is great, her sister got married and my other friend and co-worker, April and her daughter, Sarah, when with me and my daughter, Abigail and we had a blast. I haven't had that much in a long time. I never get to go anywhere but work and Wal-mart and occasionally to Eastgate or the mall. But we danced and ate and just had a lot of fun and I hope to do it again. I really need to get out more and just let loose. Now I am doing homework and I am pretty excited, I am going to get all my work done, I hope and get it turned in on time. I really want to pass this class and my other class. I might have my friend, Alta, helped me some with my paper, she is good at that stuff. Not too much help, just her input. Anyway, I will probably do a little more homework and then off to bed, so I can at least get a little sleep.

Happy Today!

It's Tuesday, and I am working on my homework trying to get it all done. Things are going pretty good so far, work and home are good. I just got over being sick, figures this weather is crazy. The kids will be sick next. I can't believe its almost Thanksgiving and then right around the corner is Christmas, I am not ready for that at all. I haven't even started thinking about what I am getting everyone. I try to start my shopping early, but it never happens. I usually wait until the last minute. Most of the time it is the money situation, I never have any. And it's hard buying for 5 kids. It's not so much what to buy them because they are all easy to buy for, again it's the money situation. I always want to make sure that they all have a good Christmas. Classes will be over soon too. Can't believe how fast it went by, it seems like we just started. Well, I think I am done for today, I have more homework to get done. I have to work tonight, so I won't be able to do any then.

Worried

Here it is Monday night, at 11:59 p.m., and I struggling with this paper. I have so much trouble getting started with this class, I am just scared to death that I am going to fail it again. A writer I am not. My son said when he took English comp in school, he passed and he said all he did was bs alot, I can't even do that. I am so focused on my other class, which is keyboarding, and I am doing better at that because I know about that, I am falling behind in this class. And it doesn't help that Iwait til the last minute, I have tried to make myself do a little bit everyday, but with work and kids and everything in between, it just seems like I don't have enough time to do my work. I don't even go out and have fun. I need some fun in my life right now, maybe that's what I need to do to get myself in a happier mood. Work sure doesn't do it for me and then I have issues with my son and daughter-in-law and they are splitting up and I want to be there for both of them, but I am caught in the middle. It is sad, here I am going on about this insignificant stuff in my life and his life is falling apart right before my eyes and I don't know what to do for him. Hopefully, all this will work out for both of us. I will be able to pass this course and he can get his life back on track. Signing out for today November 2, 2010 at 12:08am.

Getting Behind

Well, I am getting behind on my work again. I try not to, but with work and the kids and staying up till 5 am is kind of getting to me. I didn't get to blog for Unit 4 and that took some points, but I am going to get myself caught up. Having some family issues this week. My son, Aaron, who is just 20, been married for 2 years, decided that he didn't want to be married anymore. If they both would have listened to me in the first place, they would not be in this situation. I feel bad for his wife, because she really does love him, but she has too tight of a leash on him and thats the whole problem. She tries to be his mother and he only has one mother. I want them both to be happy, but if they are not happy together, then they need to be apart. That is why I tell people not to get married. I was married for 12 years and I will never do it again. I live with someone and we are engaged, but I think that is a far as I want to go. I just hope he gets all this straightened out. I feel like a marriage counselor and I am tired of doing it.

Family

Well, I guess I can start by saying that I have a great family at home. Other than that, I have no other family that I am close to. My mom's sister died last week and I didn't even get to pay my respects. They all live in Pittsburgh and my brothers drove up and didn't even offer to take me or my kids with them. Its not about that, we could have followed them up there, but they didn't even ask. I don't drive in the city, so I could not have done it alone. But most of my family don't care about me and my kids, so I told them straight out, I am done I don't need them. I am the middle child and have always been overlooked and forgotten about, but thats fine, I have my kids and that is all that matters. My dad and stepmother haven't always seen eye to eye, but they weren't welcome to my aunt's funeral and that is sad, because families should stick together, not be torn apart. But that's ok I am fine with it. I have great friends, great kids and the boyfriend isn't too bad. I have school and work so I am good. Something else I would like to add is we bought my son Aaron tickets to a Bengals game and he went yesterday and he a blast. He was on cloud 9 and I am glad he enjoyed himself. He says he is going to go to another game. And I know that my other family don't appreciate me, but I know my kids do and I enjoy doing things for my kids.
