I have been busy :s

I know I have a super old post, but it is for a good reason. I have been busy on the computer doing other things and I have to keep myself away from the blog business or I don't get any work done. I get sucked in to reading blog after blog after blog and you know how it goes. I've been scanning my little butt off to get all of my preschools curriculum on to flash-drives so it is an easy resource to use and not a pain in the butt to look through stacks of old curriculum out in our storage shed. I've also been using my extra time to start on 9 months of new curriculum for the up-coming school year. Yes, even though it's my summer break I'm still working:) It's fun work though and I really get in to it that's why I haven't been posting. Plus,....I got promoted at my job so I'm VERY pumped and blessed to get that opportunity. Yahooooo!!

Graduate school or bust!

I feel as excited to start graduate school as I would be to hit up Vegas! I'll be registering in a couple days for School Counseling! How exciting! At the same time I feel nervous and rushed at it all. For the most part I was looking forward to being a lazy bum with my kids all summer, but now I might have a couple courses to take and then what? I'm good at managing my time so I'm sure I'll be fine and I can always do my work at night when the kids go to bed, that is after all how I earned my B.S. degree. And these first courses are online so that helps.

Oh well, I have to do it because it's been my goal ever since I was that pregnant teenager that I'm sure so many people thought would go no where. I never set goals for those people I set goals high for me because I felt I had a purpose when ever I was on my way to school or received my grades at the end of the semester I always felt like "yeah, that's right this single mom can work, raise a child, and get good grades in college!" What's too hard for me? Nothing. Actually I just love school so much I love to learn new things and meet new people and I feel like I'm setting a good example for my kids. If they dare tell me school is too hard and they can't manage all of their homework, blah blah boy do I have stories for them that will make the ashamed of even complaining:)

Now all I have to do is pray for God's guidance through school and work and family to find that happy balance again that I haven't used in almost a year since that's how long I've been on "vacation" from school.
