Oh happy day!



My financial aid came through!

Thank goodness! I am so full of gratitude and caffeine that I feel like I could bounce off the walls right now. My loan also came through making it possible for me to pay for my books and get everything I need for the semester.

I learned a while ago that I needed to write down all the blessings that I've been praying for to show gratitude for receiving such answers to prayers.

I have A LOT of ground to make up. With my loan and pell grant just coming through, I have to email my professors and tell them the situation. Gotta get the little violin playing some sad music so they'll take pity on me and let me make up some assignments or do some extra credit.

Or maybe just drop whatever class is giving me grief and add a different class. But that seems like too much work just to be done with something bothersome.

Anyhow, I'm just really relieved that my school money has finally decided to show up in my school account. I just have to wait a couple days for my leftover money to be mailed to me so I can spend a horrible amount on textbooks.

I think buying my books this year is going to make me cry a little....but I'm still thankful that the money came through. :-)

Done

I am so happy that I'm done moving! Now comes the almost unwelcome task of unpacking. As it would have it, I've moved into a smaller space and I need to throw out a few things. Maybe, once everything is cleaned up, I'll take pictures. My younger brother, the previous tenant of the space, has left the bathroom a complete mess. Thank goodness for Scrubbing Bubbles and some pretty amazing toilet cleaner. It'll probably take a another day or two to get the shower to the point where I won't be afraid to shower in it. Its pretty nasty I tell you. Anyway, I'm running out of things to write about today. I'm not feelin' it...

No time

It's been roughly 5 weeks since I last posted anything. Work and school have almost literally sucked the life out of me. My dad and I just got internet at the house, which does make things a lot easier. Even then...I really don't have time to do any real studying. Here's a typical day for me: 7 a.m. alarm goes off. try to wake up. press snooze a couple of times. wouldn't be human if i didn't, right? 7:15 a.m. actually get out of bed 7:20 a.m. shower 7:30 a.m. get dressed for work 7:40 a.m. try to remember to: fill my water bottle grab a can of soup & crackers for lunch grab CNA books & supplies eat something on the way out the door then curse myself for forgetting to grab my smock and name tag. unlock/lock the front door, again. 7:45 a.m. drive to work 8 a.m - 4 p.m work 4 p.m. - 4:45 p.m. take coworker(s) home. 5 p.m. - 9 p.m. CNA class 9:15 p.m. change into pj's. find s...

Hooray!

I've lost 9.2 pounds in the last 6 days. I'm excited! The picture really doesn't have anything to do with weight loss per se, but it does have the word reduce on it and I took the picture, so I'm putting it up. :-]
