College Takes Presidence

Okay...I am in crunch mode for the 12 days. Sometimes I do not know why I allow myself to take more than 1 class during the summer. I always seem to pick classes that require the most amount of work. Reading, Logging onto Blackboard, Math Problems that have a,b,c, parts to them, and writing a lot of papers. UGH!!

Keep my eye on the goal...I will be a Secondary Special Education Math Teacher.

Daughter NOT moving home

Hmmm...just got news (last night Friday the 27th) that my daughter decided not to move back home for her senior year. How do I feel about this? Not sure actually. Relieve? Sadness? Confused? She gave reasons but none that were really difinitive but I will support her decision. :)

She is the one on the right. Yes, those girls are sisters and my daughters. I am a proud mom of a 17 year old, high school senior and a 12.5 year old middle school 7th grader. :) I am the lucky one who gets to be their mom. LOVING every minute of being a mom to these two girls.

3-Day Cancer Walk

You may or may not know this but I am doing a 3-Day Cancer Walk Labor Day Weekend 2007 in Seattle, WA.

I wanted to this last year but didn't have a walking buddy nor a team. This is the year that will challenge me in ways I could never imagine. :) I am totally excited about this experience.

Life in Bullets

• Daily Trips to Starbucks: ~ I like to...no I need to...I want to...I MUST HAVE MY AMERICANO DAILY!!! It is what gets me through the day. :)
• Dirty Dogs: ~ Taking my 80 and 75 pound dogs to Soggy Doggy to be washed by ME and hopefully my daughter. Boy do they STINK!!!
• School : Math 172 ~ Chapter Quiz Wednesday August 1st (which is my wedding anniversary). Education 240 ~ Hecka lot of reading, weekly video viewing, and daily Blackboard Log In. Study for Math Placement Test to see if I can go into the Pre-calculus class to be accepted into a new edcuation program called Math Pipleline Program for ParaEducators.
• Family VacationSeaside (in a couple of weeks). We do this EVERY YEAR!! My parents and us rent a house for a week so we can have a little bit of privacy and we can bring our dogs with us.
• Modifying Parenting Plan: ~ 17 year old moving back home for SENIOR year @ Kent Ridge High School. Why she wants to do this? She wants to get a job and do running start at Highline CC.
• House Cleaning: ~ What is that? Seriously, I find myself cleaning toilets @ 10:30pm. I have to be VERY quiet as my husband is usually in bed by 10:00pm.

That is it...my life in bullets on July 27, 2007
