Babble

Ok, I think I'm getting the hang.  Just finished adding more of my classmates onto my "following" list.  Think I have most of you now!!  For some reason this seems to be the hardest thing for me to get used to having to do~~not sure why, I've certainly done harder things than this in my life!!

My mom's been in the hospital....again....since last week.  Hoping she is well enough to come home soon.  Every time she goes in (and it's quite often), there's always this question of whether or not she's gonna make it home....but she always does!  I don't think I've met anyone so tough in my life~maybe that's where I get it from!!

Quiet holiday weekend.  Catching up on things...kinda boring.  Lotsa decisions to make in the next few months that will impact myself and my children.  Always hoping I make the right ones!!!

Off to do more school work!!

Kinda random stuff

I'm not quite used to having this blog and keep forgetting to write on it!  This weekend consisted of working yesterday, taking an awesome nap and running my youngest around to parties, and of course school work!  Weather today is gray and dreary which usually puts me in tired mode.  The theme of this blog seems to be "tired"  lol!! 

This is my fourth term at Kaplan and so far I really enjoy the challenge and am doing quite well.  I've changed my major from a Bachelors of Healthcare Admin to Bachelors of Health and Wellness.  I see the medical field heading toward prevention and getting out of this waiting until we're sick to fix it mode.  It really peaked my interest after taking Models of Health and Wellness class.  I'm already searching out what classes I want to take for my electives.  I am looking forward to researching my paper for my writing class.

Life is kind of funny....I'm finally, after 48 years, looking into what I want my future to look like.  So far this is what I see......after my third child goes off to college in another 5 years, I plan on moving south!!   In very close proximity to a beach.  It's where I've always wanted to be...thinking the southern part of North Carolina....not right on the shore, but not too far away either.  I see myself living in a beautiful condo with no lawn to take care of...in my new job developing health and wellness programs for corporations, hospitals and maybe even for the government.  Right now I am thinking of gearing these programs toward underprivileged children who don't have a lot of money to purchase the proper nourishing foods.     

So this was a lot of writing today.  I will continue to try and write on here more often.  Gonna go look and see what some of my classmates are writing!!!!

Here we go....

It's been a busy several months since beginning school at Kaplan. Rearranging my time has been tricky, but done! My three teenagers have pitched in around the house to help out. I love being back in school...I feel such accomplishment!! Lotta plans to be made for my future...some difficult....some necessary...some I can't wait to see! Kids are beginning to make their plans...figured it was time for me. Catching up on school work today. Hate having so much on my mind at once...guess it comes with territory of being single mom. I can handle it. Always have and always will...kids ALWAYS come first!!!!
