Living in Savannah

Just the everyday saga of a military family who is living in the beautiful surroundings of Savannah GA. The husband is an MP with previous deployments to Iraq and looking at a medical retirement with the wife going to nursing school full time not to mention they have 3 kids and 3 dogs!

Frustration

I've felt this way for the past few days and I'm not sure why....maybe it has to do with everytime I look around something else needs to be done...I'm behind on errands, laundry and just feeling down in general. Not sure why but I am. Hopefully I will snap out of it soon! I think I just need some "me" time if that makes sense but at this rate I might get that in 2007,lol.

I really do like school but its frustrating right now too. We covered a whole chapter on muscles in one day, yes ONE day! There is so much info its not even funny. Now we are on the nervous system. We have still one more chapter this week to go over then we have a test over those 3 on Monday then our midterm over the first 9 chapters Tuesday. This Mother's Day weekend will be me studying....I just keep reminding myself that in the end it will be so worth it, all of this will be.

Caitlin finished her term paper and handed it in yesterday. It was on the Great Depression. Matthew has an upcoming Band concert Thursday so he gave us a mini preview of it last night. Its amazing how well he is doing after just a few months ago he could barely carry a tune on his trumpet. Now we know what he is playing :) Justin keeps telling me that he will be in 3rd grade next year but he wants to keep his teacher he has now. This week at the school is Teacher Appreciation Week. Yesterday they were suppose to hug their teacher, today they will make a card for them and tomorrow they are suppose to bring them something sweet. Matthew says his teacher loves Hersheys so I went to the local wally world and bought a king size hershey bar and Justins teacher is getting one of those Symphony candy bars, mmmmm!

Ok off to get the day started or at least attempt too. Have a good one :)

Ya know...you really do have a full plate...most days overflowing!! But, look how far you have come in a short time at school...and how well you have done!! I am proud of you!! But...and there is always a but... :) You do need some "you" time. Even if it's just a few miutes a day to just escape...you need that.
Hang in there...and just think...it's almost summer!! :)

Good grief the pace of your classes sound as crazy as mine were. It's hard but it's well worth it Gretchen. Keep your eye on the prize! :-)
