Thanksgiving Morning

Well, I guess it is no longer morning but I stayed up until 3am so it is my morning!  I am listening to great music (Vivaldi) and relaxing because I did my cooking for today the last two days.  It is the first time I have actually cooked for Thanksgiving and I made everything from scratch (well, except the pumpkin puree).  It makes me mighty happy that I actually cooked rolls, cake, cranberry sauce, and potatoes without burning anything and it is all edible!

I hope everyone else has a great day and enjoys their 3,000 calorie Thanksgiving dinner!

Overtime

I honestly don't know how I manage school and work together.  I am working eight hours of overtime tomorrow for some extra holiday money and also doing a lot of projects for my five classes that are due on December 5th.  Oh well, I will manage it.

On a happier note, I am in a better mood this week.  We are almost done with school for this semester and I am only taking three classes next semester.  I have Thanksgiving off and plan on cooking a lot of stuff home made for the first time, hopefully I don't burn it!

Spring Semester

I registered for classes today.  After this semester of five courses, I decided I was only going to take three.  Even with only three classes, I am still managing to take 11 credits.  I really hope I don't get burned out easy like I did this semester.  I usually take mostly online classes but for the Spring, I am taking two physical classes; hope I can do it!

My courses for Spring are Interpersonal Communication, College Biology/Lab, and Forensic Anthropology.  If I stay on course, I can be done with CCA by next Fall.  Wish me luck!

Is it December yet?

I am starting to feel bummed with school this semester.  I don't know if it is the amount of classes I have taken or if it is the actual classes I have taken.  I am not a fan of English and I always stress when I take an English class.  Also, the computer class I am taking was great up until this last week where it got extremely confusing and I can't seem to get any answers from the teacher or the book (honestly thinking of dropping it before the 9th).  I guess I just can't wait until this semester is finished and I can have these classes behind me.

Sorry for the 'woe is me' post.

Fall

Don't you just love the changing seasons?  I absolutely love that in Colorado it can be 20 degrees and snowing and the next day it can be sunny and 65.  Absolutely love Fall!

Along with the weather, I love the holidays and the extra time I have off work.  Now, if the semester could only be over, it would be a true blessing!
