Well, it's been a while!


Let's see...Where to start...


Me!  ;)


Finished the semester.  I passed my math class with a C.  I got an 80% on the final, which to me means if she hadn't made the tests so tricky, I probably would have done better overall, but still it's high enough to move on and take the required class for my degree.  I am 20 credits away from graduating.  :)  I had to take an E in one class because the teacher was so bad and I didn't drop it in time.  My GPA is still 3.5 and I'm happy with that.  I already know what I hope to take next semester. The class I had to drop has a great teacher I read about on www.ratemyprofessor.com.  :)


My BP, ugh, so high!  The doctor upped my dose to twice as much.  Ah that stress is truly a killer isn't it?


I went for a mammogram Monday and I have to go back next Monday for more pictures of my right breast.  They said there were changes.  I'm a little worried, but not too badly.  Usually when I go they take picture after picture until they have good ones.  She took one of each view and that was it.  So I'm hoping maybe she just didn't get a good shot.  I dread Monday as the bruising is just finally healing nicely from Monday and I read online that diagnostic mammograms are more painful.  Stress.


Ken's job is going okay.  He doesn't hate it, but he doesn't really like it either.  So I worry about him and his job and money....


I start back at my pool job on the 25th!  Looking forward to it!!  Sun and fun and well, a few brats, but I can deal with that right?  :)  I'm hoping I have a little extra money to get a bracelet from Cathy.  :)  I want the one with the children's names on it.  A gift from me to me.  ;)


Zachary - My goodness just when I think he's doing okay, I find him sleeping with Farley again.  Stupid substitute teacher.  He's used the word hell twice this week, once when mad and once during a lecture about  war.  Last week he said the word damn in anger.  I'm done complaining.  I can't take much more.  It just grinds me they didn't replace him sooner.  14 more days after today...14.  5th grade has sucked for Zachary, poor kid.  Last year in Elementary and it was torture for him.  :(  His medicine dose was even increased to help him deal with his substitute, not a lot or different, but still it bugged me a little.


By the way, I'm okay with the Farley thing, I don't say a word to him.  I just know he does that when he's feeling anxiety.


Tuesday afternoon, his bus gets home at 4:30, he had a ton of homework.  He was up until almost 11 and he was so tired, I sent him to bed.  I had him get up in the morning and finish it and he did a nice job on it.  It was an entire lesson for Social Studies.  So odd they wouldn't have done or at least started it at school.


But I'm done.  I will do what I can to make the teacher happy because he gets mad when things aren't done just right.


Yeah, that's stressful.


I don't wonder why my BP is higher, I just wish it wasn't.  *sigh*

  1. I'm so glad Ken has a job! I hope it gets better soon. 14 days indeed. Fingers crossed that next year's teachers are much much better! Good to see you posting again :)
