100% on my first assignment!

Since going back to school on the 12th, we just received our first grades back.  I some how managed 100% on the first writing assignment.  I'm rather pleased with that outcome.  It was stressful.  I hope as time goes by, this will become easier and allow me to develop good study habits.


Work-Life balance was easy.  Work-Life-School balance is already proving to be difficult.  There might be a huge pile of laundry needing attention.  It's also time to decorate the house for Halloween.  I'm glad we've put a plan in place to decorate the house for the party.  I've never had 4000 sqft to decorate before.  Keep in mind, EVERYTHING is bigger in the south.  Houses, yards, cars, boats, toys.... everything!  I don't think I feel that compelled to decorate the basement too much for the Halloween party.

I'm lucky that I have a husband who loves to decorate for fall and Halloween.

I'm pretty lucky in general.

Only thing missing is Jackson and I'll get to see him soon.

Change. Change Is Good

Life has changed significantly over the past several years.  One of these days, I may tell my entire story.  For now, I think I'll use this as a platform to keep my writing skills in tact since I've gone back to school.  I didn't anticipate being as rusty as I am at writing.  I certainly didn't anticipate that committing going back to school to finish my BS and go further and chase an MBA would cause as much stress as it has for myself.  However, I have an amazing husband and son who support me and keep me balanced.  I can't wait to share the news with Jackson that I've gone back to school.  This is going to be an interesting ride.
