Gettin' into a Groove

         
                  Well it has been some time since I last wrote. I tried to take advantage of my free time while I had it before I started work and school. I started school Jan.22 and work Jan.18. I have been going and going ever since! Now that I have such a full load I am trying to find the time to spend with Devin before he heads off to Florida for 16 months. I know I will go and visit at some point but since I don't know when just yet it seems like an eternity.

     So yes, Dad got re-married. Karen and him knew each other in high school and dated in high school too. Dad had been re-connecting with people he knew high school since he was planning his 50th high school reunion. Last year, after mom passed away, they reconnected with each other and the rest is history.

                  Dad is enjoying retirement and not having a schedule. :) Janna is still attending Texas A&M and loving it. Devin is working with his Dad on some rent houses they have. I am going to school Monday-Friday and working. My work schedule isn't full like it was when I first started,but I feel like I never have enough time.

    I'm taking College Algebra, Statistics,and Chemistry 2. Out of all the classes Chemistry 2 is the hardest. I only have the class once a week, but it's on a Monday night for 3 hours. When it hits 8pm, my brain has checked out. I should actually be reading one of the chapters we are going over right now and making flash cards, but hey I'm pretty good at procrastination! Anyways, College Algebra is a little tough only because my teacher is a little nutty. He gets very distracted and I don't think he realizes he isn't finishing his sentences and leaves you hanging. My stats class is good. The teacher is awesome. Nuff said :)

     My dad and Karen have been cleaning out the garage. They came across some yearbooks of Mom's and other school stuff. It's really nice to be able to reminisce. I told Devin on Valentine's Day I'd like to go by her grave and put some flowers there. I haven't been to her grave since her ashes were buried. Katie went by when it marked a year that she passed and took a picture for me. She brought flowers and so did Janna and my dad. I know she is gone, but still with me in spirit but I really don't think it's fully and completely set in.

   So I was use to sleeping til 8am 8:30am and doing online classes and then going to work in the evening. Well even though I only did that routine for 6 months it really changed my body clock. I've always wanted to sleep as long as possible, but now it's all I think about lol. Not all I think about but I enjoy my sleep! I need to take a nap before my night class or I might fall asleep in class! Once I can get more settled I think it'll be good.

I has dinner on saturday with my two besties Sarah and Katie. We had fun chit chatting and getting together. It's always good to know you count on someone.

Well I am drained. I need to hit the sack temporarily and then get to some homework.

I just want to say thank you to those who read my blog. I hope I can help you feel like you are not alone if you have lost someone and are coping or I can make you laugh at my cheesy and sometimes sarcastic humor. I hope that I can also help you realize you aren't the only one who is juggling a busy life while trying to get to the dream career.

Remember: Always pray to have eyes that see the best in people,a heart that forgives the worst, mind that forgets the bad, and a soul that never loses faith in God.
