A week of hurdles.

This has been a week of many hurdles.

It has been a crazy week at school. The kids are so wild and ready for Christmas break. Getting them to work for the next two weeks is going to be a challenge. They have been taking state tests this week and the Biology one was today. I hope everything that we have done all year has paid off. We will likely know the results by the end of next week. I am a little nervous to say the least.

I have been working on everything to start next semester of college. I have always said that scheduling classes and paying for them is half the battle. Getting through the paperwork can be stressful....and don't even think about trying to call anyone about any questions you have because you get one automated message after another to eventually reach a mailbox that is not accepting messages because it is already too full. Then, one might think about emailing only to get a response from a person who doesn't enough to help you and will gladly transfer you to someone who can help...... you guessed it.... the mailbox again. Then in 3 or 4 days someone will call and then tell you to check back in a few more days because its not processed in the computer yet. If this sounds like a rant from experience...it is. Finally, I got some answers and I am making progress.

On a brighter note... my sweet girl will be 17 months old tomorrow. I can't believe how fast she is growing. She is doing so many things. She loves shoes and puts on everyone's. Her favorite thing to do is take off her clothes and shoes and put them back on. (backwards and wrong-side out of course and not to mention shoes on the wrong feet) She is using the potty several times a day on a regular basis. She's even used the big potty when we've been away from home. She's acquired a few bumps and bruises from her active playing. They ought to look really nice in our Christmas pictures this weekend, huh? We tried to reschedule but they are booked up until the first of the year. Sooooo we're going to give it a try and maybe they can photo edit the bruise. I hope so! 15 days and counting until CHRISTMAS BREAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
