Last Semester

I cannot believe that I have not posted anything for so long. I got my white Christmas and a white New Year. I'm expecting great things for this year!

It's That Time of Year

I love this time of year, except for the heat! Going back to school. I love paper and pens and books and the smell of books, all that is associated with school. I always have and always will! New clothes, bookbag, shoes, etc. I love school and returning to school last fall after 29 years of being out was such a challenge but I have loved every minute of it. I am now down to just two semesters left and I will graduate with an Associates in Science. I am looking forward to graduating but yet I am going to miss school. I think I could be a full time student year around and be happy as a clam as they say. My second grandbaby will be starting school this fall. He is such a little man. Its hard to believe that Summer is going to be in first grade. Where does the time go?

Need a Vacation!

Its been too long since I have been on here. So busy and the summer is flying by. Sometimes I feel so overwhelmed with everything that is going on in our lives. Need a vacation desperately! My dreams seem to be crashing around me of sorts but trying to keep a focus on bright spots.

Another semester behind me!

Well I have completed another semester. Whew! I had an accounting class and math class this semester and I thought I was going to lose my mind. I am anxious to get my grades. I know I have three A's for sure but I am unsure of the other two classes. This school thing has been a real learning experience for me in more ways than you would think. I have two weeks off and then I hit the books again over the summer.

How Things Work Out!

I am just amazed some days how God works things out in my life/our lives. I have been stressing about paying for summer school. Initially, there was no money available for summer, so it had to come out of pocket. If I did not go it would throw my graduation date off and put me a semester behind. Well, praise God! I was notified this week that I had qualified for financial aide for the summer. Because of this I will not get off track over the summer. I am excited and yet the summer off would have been nice. Teaser: Romania. Update on this to come later.

Change

Do run from or to change? I used to run from it, now I seem to run toward it. I am embracing it now days as though I am a new person, changed inside somehow. I never used to embrace change. I would hide from it, flee from it and do just about anything I could not to encounter it. Now I seem to long for it. The change of seasons, changes in my life, all of it. Change keeps things interesting and seems to add a spark to life. I am sorry I waited so long to embrace you "change".

Rain Makes Me Glad for the Sun

We have had an incredible wet start to our new year. When the sun shines I truly appreciate it! I close my eyes and raise my head toward the sky and just soak in the warmth. It warms clear through. I guess what I am saying, take a moment and enjoy the small things, it makes the big things (problems) seem alot smaller.
