Wow

Can you believe it? I go several months without doing anything to this thing and then BAM! I post twice in a week! How typical of me. I know right? Just kidding.
Stress and me are getting to know each other fairly well. I need to know how to deal with it in a more mannerly way. No more fits of crying and jerking my head back and forth saying "It's not fair!" to nobody in particular. Maybe some day I'll get the hang of this living in the adult world thing. I hope so.
So, I am looking at about 6 semesters at the U of A to get a lowly Bachelor's Degree. That's three years, people. Add the however many years it took me to get through NEO and I'm on a how many year plan? Who knows. When you go to school part time, it takes forever. It's discouraging me to see how many years I've been after this and to see how many more years I have to go before I finish. And that's not even counting if I decide to go on for my Master's. I don't even want to think about that right now. I'll be Scarlett O'Hara and think about that tomorrow.
I've got lots to do today, so I need to get on with my day. I am currently sitting at the Educational Technology center at NEO using their computer. I had to come back to NEO today to get some transcripts. It seems that they didn't send anything to U of A in way of transcripts under my maiden name. I took lots of classes under that name and by golly I want to get credit for them.
Tonight is also the 10 day supper for my cousin's wife who died last week. I've got to get home to cook for that and I've got chapter 5 to read in my financial management book. It's about managing check books and savings accounts, this chapter. LOL! They couldn't look at a worse manager for those two items, let me tell you. I suck at managing my check book. Savings account, too, for that matter. Not much to manage when you leave it practically empty. I have to answer these questions at the end of the chapter called "What would you advise now?". There's a little paragraph telling about a couple and gives a brief rundown on their financial history and I'm suppose to tell what I would advise them to do next with their money, for this chapter, with their checking and savings accounts. Yeah, don't let me tell you what to do! This advise from someone who is overdrawn more often than not? Maybe I will actually learn something from this class. I could only hope. This is one of those graduate courses, too. Just what I needed.
TTYL, peeps.
