First week back to classes update

Hello fellow bloggers,
Sorry I have not updated in a while-life just gets busy and blogging gets put on the back burner. So now that I am back in Abilene, classes are going good. I am taking 17 hours this semester and my homework schedule has not really picked up yet. I am sure that it will soon. But my other news is that I now have a title at the school newspaper "Special Projects Editor," so I actually have to do my job on a daily basis. I love all the excitement with the Brand, but sometimes I already think, "What did I get myself into?" Other than that, I am a tutor, babysitter (T/Th mornings), and also work at St. Paul U.M.C. 3 days a week. Some people think I am nuts, taking 17 hours and having four jobs, but I love being busy and keeping myself busy. I think that allows me to stay focused and not be homesick as much. I miss my family so much, but I do not have time to sit and whine about missing them on a daily basis.

I think that my job with the school newspaper will keep me occupied too. Whenever there is an event on campus, I have to make sure that it is covered, and I also make sure that the newspaper staff stay in contact and organized!!

In other news, I had toe surgery on Friday and both feet are SO sore. Both of my big toes were ingrown, so they had to come out and then there was an abscess on the rt. toe, so they had to get that out to (sorry-tmi). To say the least, my feet hurt!!! So I am staying off my feet as much as possible and am taking plenty of Tylenol. I may have to make a quick run to the supermarket and grab groceries and bandages and maybe something to eat for dinner (thinking salad), but that is the extent of my errand running.

Sunday is not as lucky, I work at the church for four hours, then have to go back that night for two. I also have to make a few errands tomorrow, so I am glad that I have Monday off (MLK) to relax.

As far as homework is concerned, I just have to make a unit plan for my science education class and have to read for a few classes, but that is it!!

Hope everyone has a great weekend and I promise to update more!!!
