Seriously, did you think I was going to post something bad? No, not quite. Here I sit at 10:18pm on my bed, surfing other peoples blogs and finally updating my blog..WooHoo!!!! "But why the title of your blog?" you might ask.
Well, Brent thinks I am doing my homework; he left to go downstairs into the dungeon and do whatever he was doing down there, and left me upstairs on our bed thinking that I was going to work on my homework. Well, he is wrong, that is not what I am doing.
I know, I am only a week into school, but really, I am not very happy with one class. It is my only online class this semester and the teacher - well...hmmm...I thought I was going to enjoy this class but I can already tell that I do not think that is going to be the case.
Now, you would think Interior Design would be a fun class to take. Seriously, I thought it would be, and I still hold out that glimmer of hope that it might end up being that way 16 weeks from now, but honestly, that glimmer is starting to fade after I took my first test today. Oh, wait, that glimmer faded after last week after I read the syllabus and it made absolutely no sense in the world.
Now don't get me wrong, she may be a nice person and may be good at what she does, the teacher that is, and designing and decorating are what I am referring to, but teaching, I do not really think this is her strong point. But, like I said, I am holding out hope - although, not much.
So I should be working on my homework, like I said, but really, I do not feel like doing it. I should, but after my day (everyone get out that little violin for me and start playing it) I just want to be lazy. Here is how it went:
7:00 - Alarm goes off (this was the second time it has gone off this morning - but I am not including the paper route). Get ready for work. Get Parker and Madi up and get them ready for school and out the door.
9:00 - Work at Elementary School
11:30 - Leave work and head to Weber for Science class.
12:00 - Get to Weber and head to class
12:50 - Class is over - head home for a small break.
1:05 - Get home, let the dog out, have lunch, study for the test that I need to take at 4pm. Oh, also get caught up on GTU (It was today's show and I fast forwarded through most of it - sometimes, I just get bugged) but it was on while I was studying and eating (multi-tasking).
1:45 - Head back to Elementary to work for one hour ***side note**** Now, I used to think that teaching kindergarten would be a blast, maybe even first grade, BUT, I do not think that is going to happen. I made my mind up about that 10 years ago after volunteering for the first time in Garrett's kindergarten class. Seriously, they are adorable children, but oh my work, I am not sure I have the patience to teach 20+ children that age. I admire those teachers that do that. I had three children in my afternoon group today, a kindergartner, a first grader, and a second grader and they were a handful! Not bad, just needing my undivided attention.
2:00 - work at Elementary for one hour
3:15 - Ended up being a little big longer - like I said, undivided attention: math, reading, and handwriting.
3:30 - Get home
3:55 - Head to Weber to take a test (that class I was telling you about earlier - random questions on the test that I took)
4:00-4:20 Take test
4:20 - Head home
4:30 - Be a Mom for a half hour before I leave again
5:00 - Leave for Weber, again - in Ogden
5:30 - ASL class. Okay, I abandoned the idea that I was going to speak Spanish. It is just not going to happen. But ASL - you can think in English. This was my second night of class and the teacher picked on, I mean called on me - okay really it was me and another girl, but then he had her sit, (he had the class playing a command game) but now I am standing up in front of the class and he has me pick someone in the class and he had me start giving them instruction!!!! Okay. I know how to fingerspell, but that is not what I did, I actually gave a few commands in Sign!!!
7:30 - Class is over, time to head home for the day!
7:45 - Eat dinner.
8:30 - Put kids to bed.
9:00 - Brent thinks I am going to work on my homework - he was wrong!
10:18 - Start my blog posting
10:42 - Glare at my husband for giving me a hard time - guess where he is going to sleep tonight..hahaha, just kidding Brent.
So, not that I am looking for sympathy, because I am not. That is why I am not doing my homework - I just do not feel like it. Therefore, I will do it tomorrow.

Oh how I DREAD days like that. I empathize with you. I had our first two by the time I graduated --- and nursing and school really don't go well together. UGH. This too shall pass I promise!:)
congrats on the sign language, that's cool.
Isn't that why we look forward to being adults, so we can choose when or if we do things? Let your mom, I mean Brent, stew over that.
Haha! You make me laugh!
Um...I still don't see my blog on your blog...I'm starting to take it personally.
um, i noticed the other night that i had not put your blog link on my blog...so, i guess, just kidding, i will go do it right now :)
Heidi,
I catch myself feeling the same way as you, frequently. I would much rather blog. YOU are one busy woman.
