2. I am thankful for my son as well.
3. I am thankful for God, because without Him I could not do any of this!
4. I am thankful for Doug, who has been my rock lately.

Wednesday Wishes

Hi everyone! Welcome to this week’s edition of Wednesday Wishes. As always you can play along in the comments or in your own entry, if  you do your own entry please drop your link here so I can read yours. Okay, here we go!

1. I sometimes wish that I was more of a ‘normal’ person. Although since I have been studying psychology, normal is a relative term. Maybe mainstream is a better term.
2. I wish that I did not crave comfort food so much. My comfort food is pizza and peanut butter.
3. I wish that my migraine will go away soon! There is a line of bad storms coming through so I am thinking that won’t happen until after.
4. I wish that my cat did not have such sharp claws. It might be time to take her to get them cut. I can not do it.
5. I wish that I could sleep more today. Maybe later though!

Tuesday is Here!

My life has been so different since the funeral. Today is the end of my week at school and I have procrastinated something horrible this week, so now I am stuck with a lot of work to get done in both my classes. Ugh. I need to really fight the urge to let things slide until tomorrow.

Good thing that I have no papers due this week though. I have not been sleeping well and that really takes a toll on me as well. Tonight is dinner at Trina’s which I am looking forward to. Maybe dinner on Friday with Becky at IHOP or someplace kinda cheap like that. I am not sure yet. It will be great to see her and Mark again. I also need to make sure that I take her book and bag to her! What ya wanna bet I forget one or both of those things?!?

The other day I cleaned out my 6 drawer cart I have here in the computer room and I never knew I had so much junk in that thing! I also cleaned off the book shelf near the computer as well and a lot of stuff went into the garbage there too.

I still have Avon stuff from when I sold Avon, both product and all the other crap that comes with it. I need to get rid of some of that stuff too. The weekends seem to fly by and I have no idea where they go to. ::sigh:: Well, this is about it for my blogging break…. Ciao!

Mondays Suck

I know I am being redundant. I know that we all know that Mondays suck. This weekend was okay. We did some stuff yesterday and went to visit a cousin for a little while as well. It was nice to get out of the house, although it was HOT!

I have had issues sleeping this past weekend. I am subject to occasional bouts of insomnia and this weekend was a doozy! So, of course I am starting Monday tired. I am going back to bed when Doug gets home later anyway, so maybe it won’t be that bad today.

As I have said, I got my book on Friday finally. It weighs about 5 pounds, so if I swing it pretty hard I am fairly certain I could possible kill someone with it. If not kill then seriously hurt, it is that heavy.

I got to talk to my friend Josh this weekend and he will be in Michigan sometime this week. I am not sure if I will get to see him or not right now, but it would be nice to. I have not seen him since last year. I think that this is it for now. Ciao!

Update on Said Book and Everything Else

The book got here yesterday finally! Although this thing is huge and I could use it to kill someone it is that heavy, I am happy to have it in my hot little hands now. I feel so much better. Now, I don’t have to get all stabby on someone and get mean. Yay!

I went to see Trina last night and heard about her camping adventures. The air mattress worked out well for her, which I am glad. So glad that we could help! She had a great time with her family and that was all that mattered.

Sleep has been elusive lately. So, I am tired again, but not feeling any worse than before, so that is good news. It is supposed to be icky here in Michigan this weekend, which is fine I had nothing planned anyway. LOL.

Maybe later I will go through my cookbooks and see what I have. Most of them I got from Sandy, which is cool. Maybe try and get them all together because right now they are everywhere! I updated my Amazon wish list. New books and some more shows I watch. I actually think that I have about 104 things on it now. Most of it books. Go figure. LOL. Gotta run and eat something. Ciao!

Friday Random Thoughts

Usually because by the time I get to Friday, I only have random thoughts left in my head from the week. I use this kind of an entry to actually get them out of my head. Sorry if it makes no sense to  you all.

An update on my book, I got an email yesterday as well as an voicemail from who I am going to assume ( yeah, I know what happens when I assume) was my academic counselor. Seeing as I have never heard from said academic counselor before, I actually do not know if she is mine or not. Anyway, the email said that it was Next Day Air shipped to me, so that means that I should have it today, finally! Talking to my enrollment guy about this situation for the last technically 4 weeks, but only 3 weeks of class he found out that they shipped said book to someone else who was not in my degree program. Wish I could have been there that day when she got my book. Cause I think he said she was in like medical office billing or something like that.

The voice mail that Doug listened to and told me about was the woman I think is my academic lady. She said it was next day air shipped and I should have it Saturday. Now, I am not a genius or anything but I know that if something is next day air shipped, and it ships on Thursday, it means that who ever (in this case me) will get the item on Friday, not Saturday. Seriously thinking about buying this lady a calendar for Christmas. She also had the nerve to tell me that the first three units of the book are online.

Okay, first of all, I am in the third week of class with no book. Which means, that after this week I have no more online book. Now, had she contacted me a week ago when she was supposed to she would know this and know the reason that we are all freaking out about this.

Don’t get me wrong, I love Kaplan. I really do. I understand that shit happens from time to time. I get that. I am thinking that this lady needs a bit more training though. Seriously. Luckily for me, I have the best enrollment guy on the planet and he really helps me with stuff. He has been so awesome!

I am feeling kind of better today. I think that all the extra sleep is doing me good. I was watching From Russia With Love last night. I fell asleep watching it and woke up at like 10:15pm because the cat jumped on me. Which as it turns out is a good thing in this case. I went to bed. Slept a little extra.

I think that we are going to see my sister from another mister, Trina tonight. I have missed her! Well, and I want to hear all about her outdoor adventures. LOL. I gotta run, I have a couple hours of TV to catch up on. ( Burn Notice and Royal Pains). Ciao!

Hi everyone! I am sorry that I am late with the Thankful Thursday entry. Time got away from me this morning and I did not realize until I logged into Blogger that it was not done. So, having said that, as usual with this entry, you can play along in the comments or do your own entry. Please send me the link if you do your own entry so I can read it! Here we go!

1. I am thankful that I am not much sicker than I actually am. While I am rather miserable, it would be and could be worse.
2. I am thankful for my ability to read and write ( Thanking all those teachers out there!)
3. I am thankful that I am ever changing and who I am today will not be who I am tomorrow.
4. I am thankful for Doug.
5. I am thankful that we have food to eat and that we are warm and dry. Make that cool and dry cause it is hot out there!
