Sometimes It Gets a Little Crazy
I am still trying to figure out how to fit school in with my family life, and this week was not even a "full" week of school. We missed the first lab due to the Labor Day holiday.
Today, by 9:20 a.m. I had :
Gotten the kids fed, dressed and off to their respective schools. I had to walk the boy inside to meet his counselor, who is hoping to distract him and help his nervous stomach problems.
Talked twice to my friend whose dog died unexpectedly this morning.
Picked up a shopping list from Eddie's grandparents
Arrived just in time for class to start.
The rest of the day never slowed down. After class I ran by the pharmacy, grocery shopped for my family and the grandparents, with barely enough time left to eat a sandwhich and go get the girl from school.
An hour later it was the boy's dismissal time, then homework and snack time.
I also unwisely decided to try a new Rachel Ray 30 minute meal recipe. When will I learn that none of her recipes truly are easy and 30 minutes to make?
Today's lecture was waaaaayyyy over my head. I hope this weekend, when I am not so tired, I can look at a video of the lecture and make some sense of it.

I feel for you. The girls are dancing 6 hours a week this year. And I'm seeing clients in my "free" time. Why do we do this to ourselves?

I sometimes run into folks who, you know, wish they could maybe play an instrument, or dance, or speak a second language, or learn to fly-fish, or how to throw a punch or a kick, or maybe pursue higher education...
Any reasonably intelligent and resourceful person who really wants to do these things CAN. It starts with turning off the TV if you ask me... (and I know you didn't).
Anyway, I'm behind you. This post reads a lot like some of mine from school.
Go out there, get your education, then come run the billing for the private practice Anita and I should start.
Cheers.
