Well, I should be doing school work. Yes. I should be.

However, what I really want to do is wrap up in a blanket on the couch and cuddle with the little dude.

Guess which one I'm going to do? Sorry school work...we still have tomorrow.

Wow! This week almost feels like it didn't exist.

Work has been my main priority. I've started training and it has been an eye opening experience. There's a lot to do in regards to making the work conditions better and get in compliance with new initiatives. I'm overwhelmed but really excited about what's to come. I'm happy to be part of the change...lets put it that way.

My first school week came and went. I did pretty well and my second week has started. Honestly, with my new 12 hour work days I've not done very well at starting but I'm hoping to get on it this afternoon while grandpa and grandma take Nathan for some fishing and an overnight stay.

Nathan is doing well. He's just moving along until preschool starts in 2 weeks. He's very excited and I know he's going to do just fine. They seperate the kids by ages (Nate is in the oldest class) and he's going to be a Frog. He tells this to everyone he meets. It's pretty cute.

Today is my husband's 29th birthday! We'll be hanging out with a friend of his later this afternoon and we're all supposed to go camping. I might just forgo the camping (reaching the low 40s tonight) and catch up on school work. I could really use some fun adult time though. It has just been an insane week.

The shop has been busy and I'm behind again in orders. I feel bad. I need to spend some time this morning with the admin part of everything and then get my booty on the couch and start making hats! I've been thinking of taking a small vacation to catch up on orders...lets see how much I get done this weekend.

I think that's it for now. It has just been a crazy life, but I love it.

I really really tried to destress my life this weekend. It didn't work. I'm still baffled by the whole feeling sick and dead tired all the time situation. I'm guessing it is just that I am SO STRESSED OUT. I thought I could be pregnant but today was the first day of my missed period (still hasn't arrived) but tests are negative. I'll try again if I still haven't started in a few days.

A coworker of mine is out on maternity leave so my sounding board is missing. I'm going to miss it. Being in HR I can't really say a lot of what I feel unless I talk to my other HR coworkers. She's the only one I really go to with the minor stuff when I need to just blow off steam. I just feel like pressure is on to do something spectacular this week on my Kaizen event and I'm praying we get the results they're looking for.

Mike came home crabby today. We feed off eachother so it's hard when he's moody. I get moody right along with him. Then we're both moody and turn on eachother. No good. Started talking money issues and we just stopped. It goes downhill from there.

I need a good day. One day that I'm not feeling like the world is caving in. One where I can have a good day at work, come home and get the house cleaned, do school work, play with my son, and end it cuddling with the hubby. Sounds so simple in writing.

School is insane right now. I'm taking a 2 week statistics course and the concensous from people I tell is "well, that was retarded!" Good to know...too late it's a week into the two weeks and I'm stuck.

All this school work (from the time I get home from work until I go to bed pretty much) has really cut into my time to knit. I have a baby blanket to get done in the next two weeks and I'd love to get a couple more scarves out on my etsy site before winter ends. I have enough yarn for more than a few and I'd like to use up some inventory before going to buy some more. I'd love to get some more yarn for some awesome projects in my head but I can't cost justify it, especially with nothing in my shop really selling right now. I did make some business cards up. Hopefully posting those here and there will promote the shop locally at least. I also went against my better judgement and purchased a showcase spot under clothing items. No sales and not even a lot of looks. Bummer.

Oh well! Time to cheer up and keep on keeping on! Hopefully after this week I'll have some more time to knit and be happy!

I'm not exactly sure what to do.

I'm taking statistics this semester and the more into it I get...the less I can even pretend I understand.

Right now I'm very lost. I'm not even sure how to start figuring this all out. All I know is I have over 20 problems left and no chance in hell I'm going to finish in 3 hours. I'm studying. Working hard. Still have no clue.

::bawls::

I can't wait till this hell is over.

Oh yeaaaaaah.

That's why I didn't want to go back to school.

::hyperventilates into a paper bag::

I just found out I don't have any school assignments due this week! Whoo ha!

Awesome news. I also got a 20/20 on my last assignment in Operations and Production Management. This means I'm still only down one point for the entire semester. Yes, so far I have 199 points out of 200. ::shakes it::

Wish I could say the same for my Econ class...but I'm catching up.

So, I'm going to nurse my aching head on the couch and put the little dude to bed and get ready to finish out my last day at work for the week. I love the idea of having 4 days off! Woot!

Dang it!

Well, I was SUPER stressed out when I realized I not only have a ton of packing to do tomorrow but also a ton of homework. So, I tried and tried to read for Econ as I have to have the homework AND quiz done before I leave. I could not get into it. I put it down and concentrated on my other class, Product and Operations Managment. I love this class. I finished my next assignment, which I thought was due Sunday, in just two hours. I finished and submitted when I saw the due date, NOVEMBER 23!

I just spent two hours on an assignment not due for 2 WEEKS! Meanwhile I still have a crap load of Econ due TOMORROW!

Crap. Crap. Crap.

I'm taking my lunch here at home and getting it all done tomorrow night. After all, I don't have to work Thursday and can sleep on the plane, right?

Crap.
